The biggest difference between the two is that the Strata is a closed box design and the Storm is a ported design. The usual design trade-off's apply: the Strata provides less, though tighter bass and the Storm provides more, looser bass. For stereo listening of acoustic music, most users prefer the Strata. Rock listeners prefer the Storm.
The Stadium and the Stentor are also ported designs but seem a little lighter on their feet than the Storm. Still, I prefer the Strata even over the Stadium. The Stentor, is really, really good, but out of my price range.
That said, I listen to acoustic jazz in a smaller listening room--about 13 x 20. For my stereo listening, one Strata is all I need. For home theater in the same room, I hook up a second Strata on an opposite wall that runs only as a .1 channel sub.
Good luck,
Matt
