Milpai - I actually have tried them out with better amplification. I took them to my friends house who has the Hawks and we both agreed that the Hawks were in every way superior. Not saying that the Rainmakers are bad, because they are not, just that I prefer the sound of the Hawks. They go lower and they just seem richer sounding.
Esluudio - I think the amplification for the Hawk is the real issue for me. With the Lore-S I can get a new or refurbished red wine audio signature 15 for $1000(used/reurb?)-$1500(new)but with the Hawks I would have to spend significantly more on amplification. I am going to try and make it up to RWA factory as Vinnie, the owner, has some Lore-S paired up with his amplification.
Tomorrow I am actually going to listen to Sjofn's Clues at the NE rep home.
Thanks for everyone's response so far.
