Like I have said many times there is no way you are going to WIN the argument on this - I VASTLY prefer the sound of the AN E or J or K to ANY of the Reference 3a speakers I have heard. And you blabbing on endlessly isn't going to change that!
And as I have said if you do wish to win the argument (sorta) then you bring your favorite Ref 3a two way versus my AN 2 way and we have classical and jazz trained musicians (around 30) and they listen level matched and blind in two identical rooms with level matched at the listening chair with the gear blacked out. Same volume same music played and we just see how many choose the 2 way Ref 3a with BE tweeters and the AN E with their silk domes.
Other than such a test - it's basically opinion. And even if the result was 29-1 either way it would still only tell people what they will likely prefer. Citizen Kane is considered the greatest American Film in History according to the reviewers - but I know plenty of people who don't like it let alone love it.
