Sonus Faber Amati anniversario
Seems like this speaker is overshadowed by the SF strads and the lower priced Elipsa. Any owners of the Elipsa bother comparing these two speakers? What made you decide on the Elipsa over the Amati's ?

David.......Thinking about an upgrade to the Cremona's? There is a nice pair on Agon right now, right in your backyard, New York. They could be in your sound system tomorrow.

I'm kind of curious why nobody on AA has a pair ? From the reviews I have read no overt negatives . It is supposed to reproduce bass down to 24 hz, and be very efficient.

The Amati Annversario's are not in the Cremona line rather in the Homage line. They weigh 40kg per pair more, use larger woofers, and specs say go to 24hz rather than 40hz. Also, the cost about double.

I've heard them once. Nice speakers, obviously more potent down low than the SF GM's but I'd hunt down a pair of Strads though before I'd settle for the Amati's. The Strads are even more majestic in their presentation and have a slightly more richer tone overall which can be very addicting in the right system. The comparison to the Amati vs Elipsa is sort of a darker lager vs a lighter beer.

I think comparing the Amati and Strad's would have a similar result of comparing the Cremona M's to the Elipsa's. The Strads and Elipsa's would be present a larger and more musical soundstage but some would prefer the slightly "faster" sound of more traditional speaker.

I did consider the Amati Annirversario when I purchase the GM. The only reason I didn't go for the Amati is because it is too big for our living room.
