Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento

Semi, you miss the point about the GH's vs the GM's. The GH's certainly do use the Esotar driver, no they don't use various hard domes or ribbons which you imply are better designs; BUT then neither does the GM! The GM uses a ring radiator sourced from Scanspeak, which IMHO and that of many many others is TOTALLY inferior to the Esotar.
Why would I want to read anything about drivers when I can use my ears to determine what I feel recreates the best sound? It has become VERY clear to me that you are one of those 'philes who buy equipment based on written reviews and nothing else; next time try using your ears instead. I suspect you may come to an enlightenment.

guys I do not want to interrupt your comunication on esotar qualities or sonus faber speakers , but what on earth said to you that guarnery homage using dynaudio esotar(modified or not)? because its not true. guarneri homage DO NOT use dynaudio esotar in any of its nature. I know that personaly and can you assure 100% that fact. listenig nd trusting for internet information is realy like lotery.someone said fact and others repeats, so information gets missunderstanding for people.

So both of you are corect (side claiming that esotar is bad sounding, and side that guarneri homage is good sounding- there is no fundamental conflict betweet theese two statements) so peace.

Just an outside viewer of this thread, but Elviukai, please enlighten us to as how you know this for fact. As you say, we can't simply trust everything we read.

because I had this speaker, i trust my eyers and many ears expierence with speakers technical stuff. its using dynaudio d28/2 marked" dynaudio d28/2 SF GH"
on the back it have glued rounded wood chamber, not sue about wood but it is white, could be maple. neither magnet size or internal gap,pole piece structure indicates that it belongs to esotar t330d family(which my extreema and electa amator mk1 have) or esotar 2 neodymium family if you refering to esotar name only.
its very close to stock dynaudio esotec d28/2 tweeter same magnet, dome. just aded back wawe damping,wood chamber and diferent front plate atached.

maybe peace now?

Elviukai, I thought my answer to you on the SF GH review thread that I wrote was clear! In addition this is what MF said in the SFGM review that was done in August of '09 in Stereophile...quote:"More important, the original Guarneri Homage, fitted with a custom-designed 6" Scan-Speak( ok, he's wrong about the woofer...it's a Audiotechnology woofer, we all make mistakes, BUT he didn't make two this time) woofer and custom Dynaudio Esotar tweeter, received rave reviews across the board for both its measured and its musical performance. But its high price ($9400/pair) and limited availability put it in the hands of only a lucky few around the world."
BTW, it says nowhere on my speakers anything to do with D28/2, your memory must be mistaken. SInce I currently own these speakers I am NOT relying on any memory! ONCE AGAIN, YOU ARE MISTAKEN WITH REGARDS TO THIS ISSUE.
