It's not uncommon in speakers, too. Just recently a couple of us listened to the $375/pair PSB B15 and thought they were really good. The shop owner insisted we listen to the $3500 Synchrony big brother. They were not nearly as well balanced. Bigger speakers often add more bass, as that's what bigger models are supposed to give you. But often, the balance is off and they are too bassy. I felt that was the case with the Paradigm Studio 20 and the bigger Studio 40, which seemed too dark with the same mid and tweeter.
