That's the first I've heard of Sonner Audio, and they're based only a half-hour from me. The drivers are premium. Those ScanSpeak Revelator R2904 tweeters are personal favorites of mine. The woofers look like Seas Excel, same as in the Joseph Audio Pulsars but with a silver phase plug rather than gold. The cabinets look expensive to produce, so probably outsourced to China.

Overall, this is my kind of speaker, but there's some stiff competition. Here's a few I was considering in the same price range:

Magico A1 - $7500 plus stands
KEF Reference 1 - $8k plus $2k stands
Marten Duke 2 - $8.5k with stands
Focal Sopra No 1 - $9k plus stands
Joseph Audio Pulsar2 Graphene - $9k plus stands
Dynaudio Confidence 20 - $13k with integral stands
TAD ME-1 - $12.5k plus $1800 stands

And one more to consider is the Trenner & Friedl Art. They're a little cheaper at $6200, so their drivers are more comparable to the Sonner Legato Unum, but they are very well regarded speakers.
