Fernando, The RM 200's seem to be a great choice for the SF's. I will be very interested to see what you think of the Lamm 1's when you have a choice to listen to that combo. My only concern with t...

Keiserrg, have you considered an analog front end?I know this will require some investment in LP's, however, IMHO analog is far more impressive than digital as a front end.The G's sound gre...

Interesting, another SF lover and a guitar player to boot!IMHO the silk domes produce an amazing reproduction of the live sound of strings.
