SPENDOR SP100R2 vs QLN PRESTIGE 3

Late to this thread, but based on my love of the QLN Prestige 3, had to respond for anyone considering the brand. 

To the point: the QLN Prestige, in my humble opinion, is a wonderful speaker. It’s a little laid back, which makes day long listening sessions a joy. I’ve auditioned Spendor speakers, but they never connected with me compared to the QLNs. 
 

I know many on this forum have that appetite to upgrade and chase that “perfect sound” as illusory as that obsession is, but I have zero desire to seek another speaker, ever. Amps? Dacs? Music servers? Speaker cables? Absolutely. 

I heard the QLn recently and was underwhelmed.  Paired with a dark amplifier the sound was opaque and dull.  I might have liked them paired with a more neutral amp but doubtful. 

Spendors all the way.  

BRYSTON 4B3

What will be driving them?

Makes a difference.

Spendor but I say that never having heard the QLN but that Spendor is a great speaker.
