Are these Michael Jordan's speakers?



Back on topic, I have to put my vote in an Italian creation:

I haven't seen them in real life, but those SF Amati Futura's in graphite look pretty gorgeous to me. I like the Strads as well (in the red violin finish).

Away from SF, I am liking the Focal Grande Utopia EM. Again, I have not seen any of these in-person. I can only imagine liking them even more.

The EM's look really good in person. Sound great too.

Anyone visiting Stereo Exchange for the Aida event will be able to see these rarities in person. They will have them on loan through December.

Of course they'll get to see a younger, more statuesque contender too.

My dealer has the Snail on display all year round. They look OK. I still prefer the SF in terms of looks.

I personally love the B&W 802 for a unique shape, and the 803 for the more clean, traditional look. Something about that silky black finish just really catches my eye
