Thanks for your thoughts....I think I am going to hold on to these Homage...n continue to enjoy them!Franco Serblin gave up on trying to perfect bass from a speaker. He is reputed to have said, "When you want more bass, you miss it; when you have it, it disturbs you." IMO he was one of the greatest speaker designers ever - I've owned Minimas, Electa Amators, and Extremas (kept for 25 years). His GH design was probably his best work, though the Extremes could do more in right room with right power. You have a work of art and the heart. Enjoy them!
