And a couple of more words about amps and speakers.
If you can handle not having a trendy name all embossed on your equipment... There are doppelgängers out there.
Go borrow a mega-buck Rowland and then drag a cheap B&K Sonata set home. Way more similarities than differences.
Don't want to bust your SF bubble, but do the same with a pair of Sonus Faber Concertinos and then a pair of older Polk RT25's. And also in the Polk line... Put a pair of Spendors next to a pair of Polk Monitor 7's. Not an exact matchup... But.... Hmmm. Where is my wallet ?
Just a few thoughts.
