Unos, Duos, Trios

["Amazing thing is that the Beauhorn USA distributor and i talked today and he loved the way the Avantgarde Trio sounds whereas i do not. i like the Duo and he does not. Of course this music loving music reproduction hobby all comes down to preferences too."]
I've lived with the DUOs for a while now, and my experience has been that UNOs and DUOs have a pretty consistent soundâ€”itâ€™s just more of a good thing with the DUOs. The difference, say, between music coming at you from speakers as opposed to being immersed in a roomful of music On the other hand, if I absolutely had to choose between putting an extra L2,500 into a cartridge or tonearm or upgrading from UNOs to DUOs, I think I would lean toward the UNOs with the better source. Basically, UNOs can be made to sound very, very good.
TRIO owners who post here seem to indicate the same thing regarding DUOs vs. TRIOs. While DUOs can be made to sound good, TRIOs reportedly offer much more of the same good thing. The problem is that both times Iâ€™ve heard the TRIOs, itâ€™s been under challenging circumstances (i.e., shows) and the setup has been a lot bassier and the treble a bit harder than I prefer. Since I assumed this was a setup issue, I find it interesting that you just flat out prefer the DUOs to TRIOs. Can you elaborate on what it is about the TRIOs that doesnâ€™t carry over to the DUOs (or vice versa) and confirm that this wasnâ€™t just a case of hearing poorly set up TRIOs?
