Soliloquy 6.5 vs. Coincident Super Eclipse same $


I need some help. Soliloquy 6.5 vs. Coincident Super Eclipse at basically the same cost. I don't have either dealer close by for comparisons. My systems consists of the following. CJ PV-11, Musical Design D-150 amp, Denon DP-60L turntable with Denon Cartridge, Musical Design CD player with Nordost Red Dawn interconnects and Kimber 8TC or Wireworld Atlantis speaker cables. I need to make a decision soon.
Thanks, Jim

Oops. Maybe I am late but a very good friend has Coincident Super Eclipses in a room which is probably 13 x 20. He runs them from the narrow end facing the long way (we tried them the other way but it does NOT work. They definitely need to be out from the wall quite a bit (4' is better than 3') but they make beautiful music and work well in the room (no treatments, carpeting on floor). He drives them with an ARC VT200. They are among the best if not THE best dynamic speakers I have ever heard (my other favorite dynamic speakers so far are Avalon Eidolons but they are substantially less flexible in terms of amplification (and more bucks)) and among the high efficiency dynamic speakers I have heard, they are by far the least 'colored'. They are extremely revealing and somewhat unforgiving. FWIW, they match well with Coincident speaker cables.

I have not heard the Soliloquys and as such can make no comparison. Just thought that the Coincidents needed some representation... :^)
