Moving from PSB Stratus to Synchrony ... questions


I simply LOVE the positive aspects of my Stratus Silver "i" mains , but figure speaker technology has long passed me by. The things I love about the Stratus series are HUGE soundstage and precise imaging, lifelike drum sounds, and the ability to play AWESOMELY loud without sounding strained ... ever.
Anyone who has made teh switch to the newer Synchrony series, I have a question for you .... What if anything do you give up ?

I used to own PSB Stratus Bronze. I think that selling the Stratuses might be the only regret that I have in the cycle of buying and selling gear.

I just auditioned the Synchrony Ones assuming that I would immediately fall in love with them but did not. They had the bass and presence of the Stratus but the upper mids seemed muddled and the highs were almost nonexistent--certainly very little detail. I was surprised. It could have been set up, but other speakers performed very well with the same equipment, in the same space.

Just my two cents. I still miss my Stratus...
