I have the hologram 2 now and had the satori on loan. I didn't hear much of a diff. Very subtle if any. The only problem I have is the damn spades are a pain. I got an adaptor to switch to banana because I have three amps and the cables are so stiff and heavy the banana comes out of the socket if I am not careful. Otherwise the sound is transparent. I tried Kirmuss cable but the litz braiding caused a problem with the crossover in my Devore's. If you are in Indy area you can listen to them at my place if you want
