Thread: It has been way too long .... SF Evolutions ...

I can't remember how long it has been but I hooked up my Evos again. For the first half hour or so they were a little reserved, but now they sound wonderful again. I had forgotten how sweet they are to listen to. Vocals to die for and wonderful midrange. Sure the bass isn't like the studio2 or TADs but wonderful speakers. Makes you forget about the gear and just enjoy your favorite music.

Joe, I wonder if your Evo has been break in or not.

Man...that is one beautiful speakers to look at.

Paul,

I think break in is close but probably more to go. I have to tell you my Job 225 on my SF Evos is a fantastic combination. Oh so musical, 3 dimensional and perfect voice. I can not believe it.

I don't know about the Evo. however my Elipsa took more than 5 months of playing ( may be about 600 hrs ) to come alive.

One day I will get the Job as well...but for now my journey for speakers is still continue...

Paul, did you not like the Magico S5's ??

Mark. I did like it but not good enough to replace the VA music though. I'm just not sold on aluminum enclosure or cabinets. I don't mind on gears but not on speakers. Just my honest opinion.

Bob.... Yes. I do....I was thinking and comparing with all other speakers ....but I kind of thinking that the VA the Music speakers are irreplaceable.

Well...at least at that price range

The synergy with McIntosh gears are excellent.

I know most people would be happy with just one of your systems, Joe! You're in a great place and your enthusiasm for gear and music is infectious! Thanks for sharing it with us here in the Shark Tank, Joe!

Ah, you make me feel 'safe' now.

* They are unique, special, full of musical soul, some of the best sound reproduction in our audio world;
emancipating the essence, the emotional core of the music.

Bob....Thank you for kind words. I do really love them . Actually another member recently purchased the Music speakers.

Joe...sorry didn't mean to hi-jack your thread hehe.

We're all good here; we don't go anal if sometimes we're little off topic. That's only for the morons stuff like that.

Paul ,

I still want McIntosh gear. There's something I love about it in the right system. I have some ideas.

Allen ,

Thank you. I appreciate the kind words. Sometimes we (I) need to slow down and enjoy journey.

to all our members !!

Paul, I understand ! I find my Salon 2's hard to replace also !

Actually Angie (Angie's Audio Corner) did a very good job of physically placing them as the bass is full and not round, and she did so in about an hour. I'm just playing with the heads, you move the heads by 2 mils and the coherence, focus and stage can changes dramatically. Overall very impressed by that speaker. Uhmmmmm, should start our own The Music thread!

Yes Joe, right on! ...Because when we're talking about a certain subject, a topic; the discussions can be totally fascinating when they also encompass comparisons, relations, music, love, and anything else of informative and friendly content.
That's how people truly 'evolve'. ...Pun intended (SF Evolutions).

- I don't like it when you are enclosed like an enclave in a vise and that you cannot move freely around.
{I've seen too many audio forums where the mods and owner/founder(s) are totally shortsighted, and they restrict interesting discussions; it's not healthy at all.}

Does anyone have a nice picture of the Sonus Faber Guarneri Evolution loudspeakers by chance?

My contribution to the SF thread, the Evos are to my ears the best current production SF product I have listened to. Like them better than the Futura and Aida . Something about the bass in the current crop of SF full range I don't get, what can I say.

I am not sure I can let go at this point. They are wonderful. Thanks for the advice. I may be sorry if I do sell them.

They are gorgeous, and they make sweet musik in your room Joe.

They are beautiful, small and can sing! What more do you need (other than being a woman, but I digress).
