A quick look. Only have about 30 hrs on the so far. These replaced the Sf Nova 1. I wanted more low end and did not want to add a sub due to floor space.

I wish that I could have chimed in sooner. Would have suggested the Focal Sopra 2 speakers. I’m sure that your Sabrina’s sound great.

Thanks to all for the positive comments. They also offered a Satin finish for an up charge but I am pleased with the Galaxy Grey/Slate Grey grills. I also opted for the acoustic diodes.
