Focal kanta 2 vs Sonus faber olympica 2..which to buy?

Hello
The floorstanders being offered are 1500 in price difference (kanta is more)😀
I was able to audition the kanta,but not the olympicas..

I will drive them using a primaluna tube integrated 
I do like the Kantas,they are not harsh(something I have heard people say about beryllium tweeter)
70% will be for music..mostly Bollywood mp3s,Spotify and tidal..in that order.

PS:if I had not heard the kantas I would’ve gone with olympica😔Now I am torn ..is it worth the 1500 more I currently own the Sonus faber Cremona auditor Bookshelves
Would kindly request members here to weigh in ..I am not looking at other alternatives

cheers
kalyan

I have a pair of Kanta no 2 and a pair of SF Olympica III. I can agree with many of the previous comments. Kanta seems more technical to my ears. But the Olympica throws a richer more 3 dimensional sound stage.  The Kantas seem to have more of that hit you in the chest bass, whereas the Olympica seems to have fuller and lower bass.  
 Full disclosure, I’m still breaking in the Kanta, whereas the Olympica are already broken in.
