Bo, you are a piece of work.
Other then the Avalon I have compared them to the others, and more, on your list.
IMO they all have great depth and width. At this level they ALL preform at a very high standard.
It is the subtleties that distinguish between each of them.
Balance of tone, base control, attack, etc.
They are all great speakers and it is more a matter of taste. As much as I love my B&W 802D I would be just as happy with another on that list.
