Sonus Faber Guarneri Palladio with factory stands & Vicenza stone bases. The Palladio were a limited edition of the Guarneri Memento with a natural maple finish & palladium details – binding posts & wiring. These are very rare as only 100 were produced – this pair are 09 out the 100. I have the original 3 boxes for shipping (speakers, stands, & bases all in separate boxes), owner’s manual, covers, & leather conditioner.
They are in very good condition with the only blemishes being some minor marks on the leather in several places (I can provide closeup photos). These are not noticeable unless up close & only with the grills off. The drivers were replaced in 2018 due to damage to one of them. At Sonus Faber's advice both drivers were replaced with a new pair sourced from Sonus Faber & installed by the NZ agent as an insurance claim (I have the receipt for the work done). The grills were restrung at the same time.
I have used them with an Audio Research Reference 110 amp & more recently with a Reference 75SE, both with great results. Amazing speakers which I am very sad to part with having owned them for approximately 10 years & they have given me many hours of enjoyment. Of the 10 years, they were in storage for approximately 5 years due to setup limitations.
PLEASE CONTACT TO DISCUSS SHIPPING OPTIONS.
I can provide more photos if interested.
Plenty of info online including Stereophile and Absolute Sounds reveiw on the Memento.

Questions for the seller |
|---|
Can you tell me more about shipping to continental US? Thanks I would look to using FedEx and based on a price I got for shipping to Australia I estimate it would be approxiamtely $1000US.
Alternatively we could look at sea freight which although slow would be much cheaper.
If you provided an address I could have a look at getting an estimate. |
Thanks for getting back to me. US ZIP code is 68845. Do you have external feedback? I might need some more address details - street and city.
External feedback? |
I am not comfortable posting my address publicly. I tried to make an offer so you could see my full address but the system would not accept it. Totally understand and will see if I can get an estimate for FedEx and sea freight with the Zip code.
I have a lot of other feedback on a New Zealand trading site if that is what you refering to.
I'm pretty sure I allowed offers but will check |
