Focal Aria 936 vs Flectra 1028BE


There does not seem to be a big difference in price for these on the used marketplace, perhaps $1,000  - $1,500 or so.  How do they compare sonically? The latest offering from Focal ( The Kanta) uses the flax cones of the Aria vs the W cone used in the Utopia, Sopra and Electra line. And the Electra also has the Berillium tweeter. Any thoughts on which is the better buy used?

FWIW I was unimpressed with the Arias and Kantas that I've heard, but loved the Sopra.  I haven't heard the Electra, but I imagine it's closer to the Sopra than it is to the others.  If you can get an Electra for the same price as the Arias, I'd just on it.
