Could new speakers in ARC room affect sound of products >?

[TOGA]

Hi,
Haven't visit ARC forum for some times.
Have just noticed that ARC now use Sonus Faber Futura as reference speakers
in sound room in stead of Maxx3. This could be by order form top management.
But could this make ARC house sound changed somehow due to tonality change of reference speakers ?

ARC has multiple speakers that are used in the room. The pic you saw happened to be when Futuras were set up. Another picture might have shown Venere, another Sasha, another Maxx. Nothing new.

Definitely the speakers can change the sound.

Warren (chief tester) Gehl's speakers are modified Magneplaner Tympani's!

It happened to be, as you say, but the REF150 is really a fantastic match for the Futuras!
