You have narrowed your search down to two superb choices...
With respect to the 7Us...
As stated previously, the 7Us will offer very fast drivers (superior to the Loreleis in this instance), and a tremendous soundstage... Like Newbee said, the height is particularly impressive. Detail is quite good, without being harsh sounding (something not so common in speakers), and build quality is super-solid.
I also agree with Teikinas with respect to bass extension... I believe that the bass is super clean, but it could do with another 5 hz of extension if you are a bit of a bass hound like me, otherwise it will probably be fine without a sub. Like previously mentioned, if you *do* pair up a sub with the 7Us, it will have to be top quality in order to keep up with them on music. ACI's Titan is a good choice, IMO...
