I’ll try to swing this back OT. I own the Endeavor SE (not RE). I’ve heard the RE three times at shows, in systems familiar to me, and it sounds essentially similar to the SE. I’ve heard many Sf speakers over the years (although in different systems). I personally do not think this is an easy choice. I chose the E SE because I felt it was the best speaker for me, in a price range I could afford, after living 30 years with a pair of speakers that I felt could not be surpassed until I heard these Von Schweikerts. Sure, there are great speakers that I’ll never be able to afford, but these were better than all the others I’d heard (for me) and fit my pocketbook. :-) I like Sf for what they can do, but the choice was personal. I think it would have to be the same for anyone else. There is no “winner/loser” in this case.
