Odyssey mono question


I have been reading half day about Odyssey monos (run into first thread by accident - must say happy one - and later read about fifty more of them here, on Audioreview, and others), must say I'm impressed. Because I'm in transition period from MF A300 to (Clayton M100, Pass X250, was considering ASL hurricane).

Stereo Times on April 15, 1999 stated:
"
but it comes damn close to matching the Clayton, (falling behind slightly to the Clayton’s wonderful top end and superior inner detail).
"
I wish I could read such comparison for M100 and mono's (extreme, Signature) version.
Have anybody made such test? Which one is better, how does it compare, if at all. I know that M100 is more expensive but odyssey mono's, but according to rave reviews it was able to compete with 3 times more expensive equipment???
Would appreciate if somebody could shed any light on this topic for me.

Your question is an interesting one. I just sent my mono's back to Klaus to have them upgraded to extreme. I decided to do this after I listened to a friend's Clayton M100 set up. It pointed out to me a deficiency in my set-up. I have not heard them one against the other. I can say I was happy with the monos until I heaerd the Clayton. I am hoping the extreme will push it to beyond the Clayton could hear deaper into the background with the Clayton and it was a bit warmer in the middle. I think the extreme will change those things. After I get them back I will be ale to compare them one on one.
