Wow, so beautiful. Congrats dude. The Amati’s are soooo friggin beautiful they make the McIntosh gear look pedestrian. You ABSOLUTELY made the right decision upgrading from Serafino. I have been smitten with the Amati Tradition from day 1 and have ZERO doubt it is a world class speaker worthy of the name. Cheers.

What a beautiful setup! What brand of rack is that? Perfect complement to everything.

congrats!
I'm in the middle of getting a close to your setup built.
I just went on from MC8900 to c2700&611.
Im pretty much sold on SF but was considering the Olympus before. Since I move up on the power side I'm not really sure what is the best Speaker fit...

Anyway, nice pictures!! I'll inquire about the same stand as yours.
Thx

Stunning.

Too few posts for a new thread. Hopefully someone can answer here.
The specs of the Amati states the frequency response as 28- , but it does not state +- 3db or something similar. Does that mean 28hz flat or what?
