Dynaudio Contour 30i or Sonus Faber Olympica II

Buy the LSA-20 Signature or Statements (available here) and save yourself $$$. No affiliation with the company BTW.  They targeted Joseph Audio for performance, and IMO JA beats both SF and Dynaudio. Or, just pay more. Read the reviews — when reviewers buy the review samples it says A LOT. Best of luck.

Neither

I wouldn't buy without hearing.

I own Sonus fabers and like them - there's a lot of great speakers at 4-6k.

I bought Sonus Gaber Olympica 3 without heating them… I did. Lot of research and had purchased a set of Cremona as a test to verify my belief that SF was the right was to go. It was. I now own a pair of Sonus Faber Amati Traditional.

I was a planar speakers person until initiating season tickets at the symphony, 7th row center. I quickly began refocusing my system on musical and accurate speakers / system. Sonus Faber + Audio Research has improved all of the genera of music and made my system an incredible joy to listen to…

Sonus Faber 👍 They look good also.

@ghdprentice You are braver than I!
I love my Olympica Nova Vs but still think there are many other great options that I couldn’t buy without listening or no hassle return.
