Audio Physic Scorpio 25 vs Virgo 25


I am curious about these two models as the Scorpio 25 which is supposed to be a lower model has more drivers than the Virgo 25 (two additional 7" bass drivers on each speaker). The Scorpio 25 goes lower than the Virgo 25 too.

Virgo 25
Woofer...............................2 x 180mm / 7"
Midrange................................150mm / 5.9" HHCM
Tweeter.................................39mm / 1¾" HHCTII
Frequency range.......................30 Hz - 40 kHz

Scorpio 25
Woofer...............................4 x 180mm / 7"
Midrange............................2 X 150mm / 5.9" HHCM
Tweeter.................................39mm / 1¾" HHCTII
Frequency range.......................29 Hz - 40 kHz

Sound=wise, how do these two speakers compare? In what ways the Virgo 25's are "superior" or different to the Scorpio 25? More refinement or something else? In my view, it is not common that a lower model has more drivers and goes lower in the bass frequencies than a higher model in a speaker line.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Virgo 25 has a more complex cabinet construction whereas the Scorpio 25 employs more conventional methods.

Due to the extra side firing woofers, the Scorpio-25 does extend lower a fair bit.

In terms of tonal balance & neutrality, the Virgo-25 would have an edge over the Scorpio-25.

Both are fairly easy to position not too power hungry, provided your electronics play well with 4-Ohm loads.
