<p>Finished to the same high standard as their flagship speakers, the new Sonus faber Guareri Evolution speakers retail for $22,000 per pair with the matching Evolution floor stands. *You can delete them and save $2,000, but you’ll never find a stand this inert or this beautiful, so just order both.</p>
<p>Our review pair arrives in the dark grey “Graffit” finish and is beautifully hand polished to a glass – like surface, as is the shiny nickel plated top and bottom plates. *But best of all, these speakers sound better than they look. *Not a pair of mere mini monitors, these are a world class speaker system, perhaps better suited to our readers that want cost no object sound, but don’t have a 20 x 30 foot listening room.</p>
<p>They are currently mated to a Burmester 011 preamplifier, Aesthetix Rhea phonostage, and the SME10 turntable, with Sumiko’s Palo Santos Presentation phono cartridge. *To say we’re in analog heaven would be an understatement. *Power is via the highly capable Burmester 911 mk. 2 power amplifier, capable of 350 watts per channel into 4 ohms, the impedance of the Evos.</p>

<p>Or better yet, head down to your Sonus faber dealer and experience them for yourself.</p>

I have a beautiful pair of Evos in my 12 by 13 ft room. They are a great match for my small room and I am sure they would not give much away in a room where they could breath a bit more. They are being driven by an ARC Ref 150 and the magical ARC REF 5SE.
