Well,

I have a little update. My friend bought my Harbeth 30.1. I am still waiting for the 40.1's to ship. There seems to be some parts shortages and manufacturing delays. There has been one speaker that I've lusted over for years, so I placed my order.

Wow! What beautiful speakers. Best of luck with them. I was lucky enough to hear Sonus faber speakers paired with c-j equipment almost 10 years ago at a dealer in Los Angeles and thought they sounded wonderful together. What will you be driving them with?

Thank you Joe. For ultimate listening pleasure the CJ GAT with my ART monos. I do have Mcintosh MC601's and MC275's as well.

I've seen these Sonus Faber (might have been an earlier model) in person some years ago at a audio shop outside of Philadelphia. I can't speak to their sound as I did not have a chance to audition them, but I remember them quite vividly as the workmanship and the overall beauty of the speakers were nothing short of amazing. I have to say that they are a work of beauty and the wood veneer that they use is incredible. In all honesty, it was probably the most beautiful wood coloring and finish I have seen on any speaker in my entire life. When you get these set up, please post some pictures!

It will be several months until delivery as they are not in stock. I know the wait will be worth it.
