Your chance to own the legendary and now discontinued Sonus Faber Liuto Wood Floorstander.

"Sonically the Liuto applies its handiwork with a familiar Sonus blend of midrange warmth, instrumental detail, an enveloping soundstage, and low-frequency extension that seems comfortable well into the 30-cycle range. It’s a signature sound that embodies the kind of va-va-voom sensuousness you can sink into. Like the perfect doppio espresso, complete with golden crema, there’s a slightly darker tonal character to the weighty, chocolaty low-end, and an appealing treble that is detailed but doesn’t skew to the clinical. As good as the bass is (and it truly is robusto) it will require some serious attention to placement or it can get a bit thick and unruly (as deep bass does if not optimized). Find the sweet spot, however, and the low frequencies impart a wonderfully tactile impression that lets you hear the skins of drums, the fingertips lighting on the strings of a standup bass, any kind of deep acoustic instruments that sends low-frequency ripples into the air. Is it the fastest bass I’ve heard? No, but it’s very good, especially for a bass-reflex design of this magnitude. The Liuto’s treble region has the knack of balancing articulation and refulgent harmonics while steering clear of raw edginess.

Dynamics could be the biggest story here. At micro and macro levels, the Liuto really turns up the heat on many fine two-ways, 2.5-ways, and even some three-ways. Lively would be an understatement—call Liuto, Sonus Unchained. For example the massive arrays of percussion and tympani during Fanfare swept across the soundspace like cascading howitzers evincing an utter lack of smearing during the full-bore brass passages. Likewise, string-section layering, microdynamic interplay, and depth cues were vividly and authentically rendered."
