Usher owners who chose 6 series over be series?

I demoed Usher Be 718 but liked the 6311's better. With all the hoopla surrounding the 718, has anyone else out there opted for the 6 series instead?

It was overhyped before release and does not live up to the hoopla IMO. A couple of my customers sold their pair within 6 months of purchase.
