SF Guarneri Homage vs Harbeth 7ES3


I am considering either one of these two speakers. A used Guarneri does not cost much more than a new Harbeth 7ES3. I listen to a lot of Jazz, vocal, strings, country. All of my electronics is EAR (except for a Shindo preamp). Any recommendations from people who've tried both? Thanks.

Maybe a good way to describe the Guarneri's would be...a richly detailed sound. They are very resolving speakers....certainly on a different level of performance then the lower level Sonus Faber speakers.
That is a good question. Sitting here listening to them...they sound amazing...maybe I should just get a subwoofer. I have been thinking about getting a pair of Amanti Homages...very hard to find.
I hate it when other people chime in and offer opinions on, and make recommendations for, products other then what the OP is asking about!

Its is nice to see no one doing so in this thread!

(Try the Verity Audio Parsifal Monitors - they beat out the SF G's, IMO)

Don, If you need more bass, I suggest a sub. Usually in a small room the G's have sufficient bass, but in a larger room, then a sub that is fast and as accurate as possible, is the way to go. I personally don't really like the A's as much as the G's in an average to smaller room. In a big room, the A's are more recommendable but I still prefer the G's with a good sub.
John, the Verity Pasifals are beaten solidly by the G's IMHO, not in the bass I would agree; but the Verities do not have the midrange magic of the G's nor the high end
smoothness. Personally I don't even like them as much as the Harbeth's!
