Oh my, the prices of the Cremona M on the used market have come down into my price range. Now I am 166 hours and 386 miles away from a pair!
I have wanted these ever since hearing them.

Now is definitely the time. Can't beat that pricing with a stick!

Wow they absolutely knock it out of the park with female vocalists...
