Description

Wonderful match between Classé Audio electronics, Transparent cables and Sonus Faber Cremona Auditors speakers. The speakers look tiny compared to the system but anything bigger would be to much for my listening room. Maybe in the future, I will upgrade them to the SF Guarneri line. But for now, I am enjoying my system so much. I assembled it piece by piece over the last 9 years. The combination provides lots of musicality and sound stage is so precise and deep. I can listen to it tirelessly for hours (tireless sound is so typical to SF speakers). My system has been built mainly for jazz, vocals and classical music (chamber music to orchestral recordings).

Since spring 2014 the SFCA have been replaced by their bigger brothers: the SF Guarneri Memento. Incredible upgrade. Sound is much more detailed and deep. The 400 wpc amps provide them with sufficient power to perform magnificently. Also added a PS Audio Power Plant P5 to clean-power all the electronics but for the CA-M400, which are connected to the older PS Audio PPP. Finally, all my CD are now placed on custom made shelves and are no longer on the monoblocks :-)

Just added one JL Audio F110 subwoofer in the chain. Only one because of space available.

Great system!  

I just upgraded to the SF Guarneri Memento so I am looking forward to receiving them within the next few weeks.

What cables did you audition with the Mementos?
