Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage circa 2004. By some cosmic twist of fate, a pristine pair is now playing beautifully in my home. I can only hope that when I have "moved on" these magnificent musical instruments will somehow find a new, and deserving home. Mille Grazie, to the esteemed Franco.
I have NO FREAKIN’ idea if these speakers are "the best" but they sure sound damn good. In fact, the OP’s question is, at heart, a logical fallacy. "Best?" compared to what. and filtered through ears, taste, systems, and more?
I pity the rampant abolutists who dare to post here. As if they have some sort of handle on "The Truth". All I am saying is let your ears and wallet sort it out for you. Big Swingin’ D’s are to be ignored. That’s what seems clear and obvious from my perspective.
Have a good day.
