Sonus Faber Olympica III vs. Cremona M

Interesting topic. Hopefully Sonus Faber can chime in.

I heard both in different rooms at different time. Olympica III paired with Mcintosh. Cremona M paired with Manley. I prefer the sound of Cremona M. It also could be the integration between amp and speakers that made it sound better.

I notice they have different types of tweeter and porting. Hope this helps.

I listened to both side by side with the same electronics for a few hours. I preferred The Cremona M.

I've heard both running off of a Mac MC452 w/ a Mac Pre, can't remember which pre. I auditioned it multiple times before I made my decision to go with the Ms. I just felt the Ms were warmner which was what I was looking for.

I own both and the IIIs are the champs in sound and finish.  I still like the M's though.
