I have not had to pleasure to audition the SF Stradivari. If I have the opportunity, I certainly will give them a serious audition, but only from a curiosity point of view, and not as a prospective buyer. I really have no interest in owning them.

Sorry I came in late for this. I would have also endorsed the Red Violin color. Congratulations on getting an amazing pair of speakers. I am listening to my Homages as I am writing this and I love the way they look and sound as much as I did the first day. I can't imagine parting with them. Truly a classic speaker!

Alberto.......We have traveled similar paths, i.e. Cremona Auditor to Guarneri Homage, and Cremona Auditor to Guarneri Momento. Like you, I will most likely never part with the Momentos. A classic speaker deserves a loving home.

Last night I looked at this pair of Guarneri Momento's on Audiogon AudiogoN ForSale: Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento in Israel. The price is very attractive.

David.......Live your dream. Trade the Cremona's for the Stradivari's. You said yourself that you think they are the best and most beautiful speakers in the world. Put a pair of Stradivari speakers in your home. I will await your review.

Live life like you mean it.

David, those Strads that have been on display for the past 3 years or so at our local dealer will probably have a very attractive price tag.

You may not believe me but since I dialed the JLF112 sub. into my 2 channel system, all I want is more music to listen to.
