I owned a pair of Legacy Sig IIIs for about 4 years. I haven't heard the other 2 you auditioned. I used a Wright Audio L-1 (tube) preamp and Legacy/Coda 2 channel (ss) amp with the Sig IIIs. I also used a Cary Audio cd player with them. They are about the largest speaker I think I could live with. The sound from them is pretty big and they definitely play with a lot of authority given the number of drivers in each. I thought the mid-bass from them was really solid. The low end was tough for me to control but it probably had a lot to do with the room I had them in and maybe the speaker itself as well. That's probably why Legacy sells the Steradian room correction device. You have got to give those speakers room to breathe. I'll bet they sounded pretty good in your room. I've since upgraded from them but I was happy enough to keep them for 4 years and to tell you the truth - I wish I could have afforded to keep those and buy my new ones. The Focus from Legacy gets a lot of attention and rightly so, but the price point the Sig IIIs are in they are tough to beat. I wish I had heard the other two you auditioned so I could give you a little better perspective. Suffice to say I liked the Sig IIIs an awful lot. Good luck with your decision.Jim
