Original Sonus faber cremona auditor again?


I was looking for a speaker just for vocals so l recently purchased a set of original cremona auditor speakers that needed a little TLC...dust caps dented,grill strings loose,light touch up on bases...but the cabinets were perfect and drivers were original and functioning properly..lve got them back to good condition...I've really enjoyed these for about a month and read all about the speakers and Franco Serbin......l soon became a believer in his midrange magic. Vocals,strings and woodwinds are outstanding...l took a chance last week and purchased a new set of Franco Serbin Accordo speakers without ever hearing or seeing them...l got them yesterday and listened to them for a few hours last night....there amazing, delicate, refined...hard to put into words but there everything l expected and more...pictures don't do them justice.l have Kef LS50 metas,original Revel ultima gems and the original Cremonas to compare....so far these Accordos are just a whole different league. I can try to answer any questions regarding the Accordo speakers.

@vinnydabully This is what Franco Serblin has wrote about the amplification for Acccordo's (in case you have not read it somewhere already)

"Let me clarify some issues related to amplification for the Accordo. These speakers have been designed to be as transparent and dynamic as possible. In order to successfully achieve this objective I have used a unique woofer with a long-stroke diaphragm and low resistance bass-reflex loading designed to offer the best impulse response. Although the Accordo can be driven by any amplifier, we recommend amplifiers with low output impedance and medium output power (40-70wpc into 8Ω and 80-150wpc into 4Ω). Too much power may result in excessive cone excursion and deterioration of signal quality. If we use the Accordo with a tube or Mosfet amplifier with high output impedance we may end up with not fully optimal bass control and again encounter uncontrolled cone travel. Needless to say that tube amps are generally not too good in this regard. I personally use the Einstein integrated amplifier which is nice sounding but without bass as good as transistor amps." - Sincerely, Franco Serblin

I can only add that I have heard Accordo's sounding great with 80w tube amp as well and obviously you know what you are doing when using your 'artillery'...

I told you l was a hammerhead....l may tone it down a bit with these Accordos....lm contemplating moving them into a smaller room with some dedicated front end equipment....l seriously try to never play any of my gear close to distortion....l have a garage with Multiple sets of JBL'S for that.

I've tried using a vintage Hafler XL600...that is 450x2 into 4 ohms mosfet output. Stereophile called it a solid state that has a unique "tube like" sound. Seems to work very well....lm very careful not to push these...l absolutely don't want to hurt a driver....lm reserving the Mcintosh monoblocks for the Kappas.....l listen in the 80-90 db range is plenty for me...

IMO....My system with all the "artillery " will reproduce a small jazz band with realism in a large room...especially the acoustic double bass guitar...there is always room for improvement...but thanks everyone for the response....
