| | While some assumptions about the Amati family can still be drawn from the later records, these crucial years apparently mark the entry into their workshop of apprentices who are not members of the family and who serve as the vehicle for the spreading of the Amati concept to other cities in Italy and elsewhere. | | | These parishioners live in seven dwellings, of which the sixth recorded on the census is that of the Amati. | | | A daughter, Anna Maria, sixth child of Amati, was born and baptised. |

| | Stereophile: Sonus Faber Amati Homage loudspeaker |
| | The Amati is the second of three "homages" to Cremona-based violin makers. | | | The Amati Homage is Sonus Faber designer Franco Serblin's moment of truth: a fairly large, floorstanding, almost-full-range speaker (the low-frequency response is rated to 24Hz) meant to be without sonic, structural, or aesthetic compromise. | | | Between each slat is an inlay of solid maple, aniline-dyed black. |

| | These speakers are named in homage to the Italian violin maker Andrea Amati (1525-1611) of Cremona, who is regarded as one of the greatest instrument makers, and who founded the Cremonese school of violin making. | | | The impedance of the Amati Homage (see figure to the left, again taken from the Stereophile review) shows that they are basically a four-ohm speaker. | | | The stunning-looking Amati Homage, with Scan Speak drivers and a complex and original cabinet construction, was for me the best speaker of the 1998 Hi-Fi Show at Heathrow. |
