I have owned GoldI for over 12 years and Platinum T8 for 4years, both are very well build, Goldi is sweeter more involving i think because it have been broken but for movie T8 is better because of 3 8" woofer, it voice is clearer on T8 but not as involves in music, since then i have up graded to Hansen Emperor, and my T8 is my rear channel speaker for movie. if you can rock music to rock T8 is better but for Jazz or easy listening tempo Goldi is better.
Both demand big power amps.
