Jason, they are really beautiful speakers! Please post feedback after you do some critical listening, especially in comparison to what they replaced. Very curious to hear your thoughts.

Thank you all who have commented! I am so far very pleased. Only have six hours on the clock so far. Anybody have experience with these that can comment on how lengthy the break in process is typically?

String tone on the Cremona Auditor M's is simply gorgeous. :-)

It took my Auditor Ms about 70 hrs to really begin to open up. I have found mine to sound their best about 30 inches from the back wall.

Thanks Miner. Sounds like I have a ways to go yet with break in. About 11 hours so far. I am very pleased with them at this point, so if they continue to improve I will be thrilled.

I had the original Auditors about 6 years ago, paired it with a Cary SLi80 integrated tube amp... Very musical sound.

Same color as yours. I enjoyed them.
