I have the Sonatas and am very pleased with them. They do a great disappearing act, have great mids and highs and adequate and realistic bass. I can only imagine the LaFolia as being as good and most likely better. I believe both use the same tweeters with the LaFolia using a bigger mid-woofer and woofer. This would seem to give a better bass response than the Sonatas. If you get them let us know how they sound.
