Title: Sonus Faber Minima Amator and Tori Jr
Post by Coqui on 01/20/23 at 01:59:54

I'm on the waiting list for a Tori Jr. My plan is to use the Tori Jr with my Sonus Faber Minima Amator II. I would like to know if anyone has heard this combination. I am tempted to get a low power SET (e.g., SE84UFO25 or Sarah amp), sell the Minima Amator II, and get a high efficiency speakers (e.g., Omega, Zu). I would appreciate the input of experienced Decware owners. Thanks!

I am going thru the same thing right now. I have a few months to go before my Torii Jr. gets here and I am trying to decide on which speakers I should go with. I am looking at Zu's, Lii Song, Spatial Audio and GR Research. If possible, I am trying a stay away from single full range driver set ups.

Hello TexJ,

I gave up trying to find a tube amp for the Sonus Faber. I sold them and decided to buy one of Decware's low power amps, the Rachael. I bought a pair of Omega Compact Alnico Monitors, which is a pairing that many Decware owners of SET amps recommend. However, I am still tempted by the Zu speakers because of their versatility; you can use them with either a low power or a high power amp. Also, the Zu speaker are not too big and appear easy to place in a room. I'm about 7-8 months away from getting my Rachael amp; i can't wait!

Good luck !

Good luck to you too! I am looking at the Zu's for the same reason as you are plus I like painted finishes a little more than veneer. Zu has some nice finishes on some of their models.

Take care and good luck.
