Three Reasons...

I went with the 5As for three reasons....

1) More bass weight in the 5As
2) The 5As have a quality in the midrange that I just can't describe. Every time I've heard them I've been amazed at the fact that I'm too busy listening to the music to bother with any of the audiophile analysis. The quatros do this too, but to a lesser extent.

.... and the MOST important reason ....

3) WAF --- My wife HATES floor standing speakers and doesn't hesitate to comment on how ugly they are. When the Quatros landed in our living room there were no comments at all. Eventually, I got a "not bad," and "they aren't as gaudy as the Wilsons." I took her to the home of a local 5A owner and she nearly caused the end of the Universe with, "Wow!! Those are beautiful!" Go figure....
