Avalon Eidolon or Parsifal Encore


I currently own the Verity Audio Parsifal Encores and am perfectly happy with them. However, a long time ago I heared a phenomenally sounding pair of Avalon Radian HC's, so I am intruiged by the pair of Avalon Eidolon's that is currenlty listed on auction. If I can pick them up at the right price I would consider doing an in house shoot out against the Verities and keep what I like best. Obviously, besides the financial ramifications, this is a big hassle involving shipping heavy boxes coast to coast, so before I decide whether to bid an the Avalon's I am interested in any opinions on how these two speakers compare. I listen mostly to small acoustic ensemble music (right in the Verity's sweetspot), and I use 200 Wpc pure class A monoblocks. Any comments are welcome.

Good advice from Rtn 1 , if the avalons dont fit the taste , than sell them again , always make sure you dont pay too much from the start.
If you ever see some diamonds for sale try them out also, those diamond cones are special , you get a " end of the line" feeling .

Ive gone the path of buy loose sell and buy again also .

Try convergent audio , they make ceramics sound more forgiving while maintaining the high resolution
