    Joey, Have you hear the Olympica Nova V's? I know this is for the secondary system and I'm not sure what size room they're going to be in, but I MUCH prefered the heft of sound from the Novas to the Amators. Not bloatiness, just weight when needed.

    I have the O3... you heard both?? The amator max and the nova v?

    Yes. They have them at Paragon Sound in Ann Arbor Michigan. I am a huge SF fan and wish I could afford the Il Cremonese.

    You’re lucky.

    I would love to hear the max

    Paragon has a generous reimbursement program for out-of-towners who visit their store (I'm sure a purchase is necessary)

    So Joey,
