SFs are really getting overpriced in Bolehland now.

5+K for a SF Toy is really ridiculous IMO.

Its like VW cars .... VW in the rest of the world is like a typical Proton-equivalent , but when come to Bolehland, becomes a premium brand instead.

Oh well, as long as the buyer makes an informed decision. Its their hard earned money and how they want to spend it on.

In China, VW are their police cars....

Anyway, yes.. Sonus faber TOY is more expensive than last time.
Since many of those who aimed at TOY already knew that the price has shot up, they should really grab a pair if they are being offered the old price.

Another option.. hunt for a used pair of the older generations of Sf.
Sometimes there are good bargains once a while...

With that kind of money, I'll buy a used SF anytime...then again, that's just me. There are people who like their stuff brand new...

well. i just confirmed that after my current batch TOY bulk order.
i myself won't be able to get the old price anymore.

Not so good news for those Toy would-be buyers.
I am very relieved that I have bought myself a pair of SfCD.

well... who cares. lol...
in fact. i doubt there's any Toy would be buyer in here.

Hey guys... just to share a bit of non-technical related thing here... hope you dont mind.

I am sure some of you guys here have come across a British magazine called HiFi Choice.
I was browsing through the issue 322 which they reviewed the latest Sf Liuto monitor speakers with the original stands.
When I look closely at those photos, I was surprised to see the reviewer had fixed the stands wrongly to the speakers.
Not just 1 photo. They got 2 photos. And both wrong.

On the other hand, the owner's manual has photos of the Liuto with the stands correctly mounted.

How come the reviewer in the magazine got it wrong? haiyoh......
Hope the Liuto owners out there will get the speakers mounted correctly.

Haha I think you'll be one of them very soon, that's why you look so closely to the pic

Hahahahaha....
Look closely at the pics still OK right until the price at the small corner of the magazine appears... (faint)

hey, can anybody tell me how the SF Toy sounds like? its sig sound i mean...

it all depends on what equipment you use with the Toy .....

I can tell you one thing, if you like chili padi, toy is like chili padi, if you dont know toy and has no idea about it, when u listen to you will like ahh, so small and yet so big ah !!! you wont believe, basically the sound is just like other SF domus series, but minus the bass tightness,, but overall at 3.8k it would be a steal, but if at 5.8k there are lot of options..

Added on August 9, 2009, 12:47 pmi presume when the photo was taken, no hifi technical person was around, the photographer obviously has no idea about speaker stand, and worst of all i think the magazine seldom check the photos, and the article probably was in a rush, so nothing edited or checked b4 published, and maybe the magazine has not review any past SF speakers and this was probably the first bookshelf, hehe, i think so my point of view. but is a laughing stock for ppl out there and makes a full embarrassment for SF company

Is the 2nd hand Concertino Home a steal consider today SF selling price?

If there is a pair in good condition and at reasonable price, why not??

Some one sell his Home for RM 3,500 @ thestar.com

I will sell mine if offer is RM 3,500 and above

Any new members here with the TOY?

*cough cough choke cough cough*



I am signing in either end of this year or next year January.

Why? Is it because of no car to carry the speakers back home that day?

SF users,

what spk cable are you using ? Is it Transparent the best match with SF ?

Best match?

Try "Yter", created by SF owner too...the same wire using in high end SF...
