Speakers of a life time ! Just gorgeous and I'm sure they sound as good as their look.
Congratulations

Thanks gents. I've made 2 trips to my dealer and have about 8-10 hours in front of them. These are the real-deal! I'm so excited to get them home. I will certainly post pics and description, but for now, they do everything the futura's do, but with much better authority, finesse and realism. I feel that they might even be considered a bargain, as to how good they really are.

I've heard these twice. I think these are the best speakers SF have made since Franco Serblin left.

Congratulations!

Congrats!

Beautiful looks and sound. I spent a couple of hours in front of a pair last week.

Wonderful!

Congrats! Please post more photos and first impressions when you get a chance. Futuras as rear channels? I have to say it: I am beyond jealous. 😊

No better way to go if you ask me

Well, there is...but we can get Ivan to do it, ditch the McIntosh speakers in his home theater room, add a pair of Aida's with 2 pairs of Lilliums plus the Homage Vox for the center

Awesome and again congrats!!! I love the Futuras and can't imagine any speaker sounding better.... BUT they are out there. I am happy for you
