Try pairing these with Hegel's H390 integrated and I can tell you somehow the sonic sound that comes out is pretty unique? To me it sounds fantastic! To be honest, a good integrated will do to drive this fabulous speakers. Stick to 8 ohms for the sweet spot and yes, you have to place this speaker at least 2 feet minimum from the wall in order to hear the best out of them. That tweeter is so so sweet, never harsh or over powering. As if it flows with the music effortlessly. I hooked it up with my friend's Naim Muso and it still sounds great as well. Fixtures in your hall or room plays an important criteria in sound resonance. The more wood, less concrete is better
Hi iam, thanks for your post. The Amati Generation V video mostly focused on the changes from previously, they changed almost everything - except the tweeter. It is the same silk dome with neodymium magnets that they used in the prior Amati. The DAD technology keeps the peak of the tweeter from exhibiting anti-phase behavior and keeps the high end more linear in the response that reaches your ears. Enjoy your day
I would like to review it! Last time I did comparo between Stenheim and Sonus Faber. Stenheim won. Now Sonus in G5 I would to see if it can take the crown.😊
Thanks for the video. But now I have a big problem. I must choose now between the Amati G5 or the B&W 801 D4. Do you have an opinion ? My Configuration : Mcintosh C12000 + Mcintosh MC462 + Mcintosh MCD 12000 + AURENDER N20 + CLEARAUDIO OVATION.
This is just my personal opinion therefore take it with a grain of salt. Both would be excellent, though with that setup I'm favoring the Amati G5. However I highly recommend listening carefully to both before making a decision. Follow your ears.
You won't meet anyone who has the same amount of belief and conviction for his brand than Will. He is first a true lover of Italian speaker craft before he is an employee.
@@TheChianello Own? No, but he is the Global Training Manager. His job is to travel around the world to educate dealers and even customers on what makes Sonus faber what it is, from the technology, to the design, and the philosophy. It is an awesome profession but a very demanding one. With the ability and qualifications to hold a global position with such a prestigious company, and to do it as well as he does, why would he just disingenuously go through the motions without any real conviction. A man like him could lend his service to virtually any Hi-Fi company. Why do you think he does it for Sonus faber? Hi-Fi is a business of passion. I've sat through a lot of vendor provided trainings in my time. Nobody does it like Will. I am really not joking when I call him the "warrior poet" of Hi-Fi. His ability to translate the technical into the artistic, and the empirical into the emotional is unmatched.
@@GramophoneMD" What do you think he does for Sonus Farber?" My answer is this: He sells them, salesman, and Pitch-Man! Record him actually laboring at the Sonus Farber factory. I want yo see him work with his hands!! I am not fooled at all!
@Sam Chianello not every employee builds the things. You have failed to understand how business and warketing works in its entirety. Welcome to being an internet karen. 🙃
@@GramophoneMD The sound is really bad. Not natural. Low volume, I increased the volume and I've heard a lot of low frequencys and a lot of high pitch sss. This didn't happen with other TH-cam channels.

Hello Hishamosman, we're glad to hear your comments. Yes, that tweeter is super smooth, and the music flows effortlessly
The best!!
Very nice video.. Wish there was more info on the Tweeter. How does it differ from B&w and past Sonos faber tweeters?

These really are a different animal. Certainly separating themselves from other Sonus faber products a bit.
@@GramophoneMD I wish I could hear them!😔
Very nice. How much?
$36,000
@@GramophoneMD almost the same price as the 801 D4, comparison video would be great...
@@adxangeles7842 801 D4 already loses against previous Amati Tradition if you like natural sound that Sonus Faber offers you

Nice, but they need to put these new drivers in the Heritage collection, their best looking line.

Yep

@@GramophoneMD why you chose the Amati’s?
@@francogravina7772 just a personal preference for their generally smoother and sweeter character.
Will Kline is simply a pitch-man.

Man, that microphone is bad!
Hello VisnitchiRaul, the mic is actually a pretty decent one, but it would have made sense to mic Will directly with a lav mic. We're sorry about that
