Sonus Faber speakers

Olympicas will scale with better equipment. I heard the Sonettos a few months ago. Not bad for HT or mix usage. But when the dealer played the Olympica Nova ii with higher end ARC amplification there was no contest. The Olympicas are more refined and much better at reproducing the sound of natural organs and instruments like piano, violin, horns, and guitars. I ended up buying the Olympica II but will most likely go up the line next year. 
By the way, the Olympicas love class A amplification. 

Has anyone heard the Olympicas with Pass Labs XA25?

@aniwolfe  No haha!!!

Maybe I should consider a different direction loudspeaker wise ? The Forte 4’s ? Similar footprint size wise higher efficiency more dynamic as my musical tastes are all over the place.

Stick with the SF’s, better speaker all round Klipsch are too much of a "loud" speaker, SF far more musical.

The Sonetto's are a great speaker.  I had a McIntosh MC 302 driving them and they sounded very good.

I expect the Olympica IIIs to be good speakers but I'm not sure if there's going to be a significant improvement over the Sonettos. 

The Sonettos were introduced after the Olympica's were replaced with the 'nova'.  I would consider the Olympica Nova IIIs to be a significant upgrade.

Good luck in your pursuit of audio happiness!
