If the application is SACD/DVD-A, one difference might be the speakers' frequency response. Many older speakers were not designed to go above 20 KhZ, in part because that was the limit of Redbook CD's audio reproduction. Now, however, many speakers in your price range go up to 25-30 KhZ to account for high-resolution formats.
