Never heard anything like them before. Detail and imaging is extraordinary. Your photo doesn't do justice to the woodwork on those Serblin's Muzzagruzz. I don't know why but I am always reminded of exotic tropical fish in motion when I see them, stunning cabinets. They must be very special to replace your Kurre's? Real nice.

Carl They do look pretty spectacular don’t they. All of the older SF gear I love the look of too. Would love to hear them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, the photos do not do them justice at all. They are a beautiful piece of artwork and mesmerising to look at. The finish is glorious and the manufacture with individual staves of solid wood fashioned together like only Italian artisans can do. The Kurre’s are superb monitors, however, the Accordo’s do take the level of detail up a few notches. Ill try and take some other photos showing the stunning woodwork tomorrow and upload. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galactic Soap Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Finally...just installed them last night. Played a little with positioning, more dialing over the coming days. Will be deploying the DEQX PreMate Plus shortly to help with the room, along with a 3 meter run of AQ Oak. Despite the improvements yet to come they sound utterly amazing. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellzigha Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 My 2nd system Sansui AU alpha 707MR Technics SL1000mk2 Consonance CD player Ref 2.2 Tannoy Cheviot the tannoys have been refurbished and the boxes were restored by SNA member Thomo. Looks brand new and sounds great. The room is small 3x 6m I am really enjoying this but sadly don’t get to use it enough. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It usually comes in a cherry/ pine / walnut finish. I had these done up in semigloss black. Give it a modern look. I am planning to get the grilles wrapped with gold colored cloth.

Looks smarter. Some say the speakers sound better with grills off but under test some are better balanced with on. Room and gear may play a part in the decider. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awayward Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Well it’s nearing dusk and the music room has been transformed into a pool room, there should be some nice sounding music as the night progresses, getting louder by the hour I’d say, long night ahead 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But your not concerned of an over enthusiastic break and a ball going airborne? I know how heavy these tables can be but maybe turning around for safety?
