  I've not heard the 3.7 so no answer to that.
  
  The simple answer for the 3.6 is that I favor the Janszens far more. I've heard a few pairs of 3.6 and I find the more solid upper bass/lower mids, the deeper and more impactful bass, the detail and tonal correctness of the mids, the dynamics and quickness of the electrostatics, and the extension (within my limited hearing) of the tweeter all result in a more satisfying musical presentation for my tastes. I also like the spaciousness attained without needing to bring the speakers so far forward into the room. Add to this a wider selection of amps (higher power ranges are not demanded), that bi-amping will never be a temptation, and for my needs a subwoofer is unnecessary, and that pretty much sealed the deal.
  
  In case you, or anyone else reading this, missed my zA2.1 review I've attached the link.
  
  Lastly, hope you can make one of the Panel Days that Green Lantern talks about.

    Sounds great. I would like to hear the Jansens someday.

  I have not heard them in the same room or setup. There is probably a difference but for me the lower priced used 3.6 with the possiblity for biamping through a line level crossover was more attractive. 5000 Euros cheaper that way!

    After bi-amping I would never go back, that alone would point me to a 3.6 or 20.1.
