Sonus Faber Concertino Home's - any opinions?

Hi all,
Have recently arranged to buy a pair of S/F Concertinos and wondered if anyone had any opinions on these?

Thank You

Not the home version , but did have a pair of concertino domus
(which replaced the home) , if it's anything like the domus you will not be dissapointed .

The high points are the imaging , and a very fluid sound ( go's nice with valves) .

Bass is good for the size of the box , and tunefull .

Word of warning , they like plenty of space around them to sound there best , even with a front port .

What amp are you using ?

 

in the interim my sugden a21a, jim sugden reckoned 86 dbl was perfect and they are 8 ohms, and depending on the sound i may change later or keep .

 

Lovely little speakers, nearly bought a pair once... absolutely amazing what they can do for their size.

 

Wonderful speakers, but I prefer a similar sized speaker of the also Italian brand Diapason.

The Diapason Micra.

It's a bit more open/transparent and sounds more detailed, sparkling, compared to the SF Concertino home.
The SF sounds a bit warmer, more mellow.

regards,
Alco

 

Thanks for the opinions, just checked out those Diapason Micras , very nice too, i am a bit taken lately with these Italian speakers. A friend uses Chario Academy Millenium ones and the cabinets on them are beautiful, they sound very good too. I have picked up my Concertino's and I certainly feel i have moved up a league in quality, both in sound and in build.
