Yes, but Audiozen you did denegrate the Sonys in your original post by saying:
"the Sony is no match against the 7T's which blow the Sony's out the window."
I'm sure you heard what you heard and that the Aerials are great speakers in their own right, but as others I'm sure have noticed, you heard these two speakers in completely different rooms with what I would have to assume were different upfront electronics. These are two of the biggest variables you could possibly introduce to comparing speakers so I'm not sure how certain your conclusions can be. Again, who knows, you may be right, but there are some huge variables here to make such bold assertions. Now, if you had heard the speakers back-to-back in the same room with the same electronics it might be a bit more meaningful. But of course there's always the moving target of personal tastes, compatibility with associated equipment, system setup, and on and on...
