Klipsch KLF-20 vs. Tyler Talyo 7U?

Here are specs.
KLF-20:
frequency : 34Hz-20kHz±3dB
power handling : 200 watts maximum continuous (800 watts peak)
sensitivity : 100dB @ 1watt/1meter
nominal impedance : 8 ohms
weight: 95 lb each
price: $1499

Taylo 7U:
35-20k, 4 ohm, 92db, 25-200 watts, 87 lb each, $3250

Similarities are the frequece range, power handling, and weight.
Big differences on sensitivity, impedance, and price.

I think KLF-20 is one of the best speakers in its price. Taylo Ref monitor seems to be one of the best in its league, but 7U would be even better. So, I would assume that 7U would be decisively better speaker than KLF-20, but I just cannot imagin unless I listen to them.

Has anyone listened to these two speakers? Any verdict? Am I right in assuming that 7U would be with all the goodies the Ref monitor has and would work far better in a bigger room?

Ihcho, i have a 40 watt intergrated tube amp, the JOR and have the Thor speakers, which is exactly like Tyler's Linbrook Sig Monitor, a MTM, using dual 7 midbass and the Seas Millinium tweet. Have no problems with power issues.
The 7U's use the Scanspeak tweet. The Linbrook Sig Monitors use the much much better tweeter, The Seas Millinium/T25. There is a used pr for $1700/obo. Sure its not the full standing tower, but stands would work just fine. The Linbrook Sig Monitor has bass/clean-no muddy mids-crisp highs. You may wish to ask Ty , he also mau have some demo LSM's. Or even even work the xover to replace the Scanspeak witha Millinium.
Good luck.
btw what tube amp are you using?
