I will definitely report back Rackon. I have listened to quite a few speakers in the sub-10k territory at this point and haven’t heard anything that conclusively felt to me like an upgrade over the T2. Given that I got the T2 for $1400 used it’s hard to justify an additional 4 or 5k in outlay when the performance benefits are so negligable. I’ve been operating under the idea that I could gain something in my system from a speaker upgrade, but given my price range (5-7k) im not sure there’s anything out there that is going to make major improvements. Different, yes, but better? I haven’t heard it yet.
I also will happily sacrifice that last bit of detail for a smoother high end - one of the things I love about the T2 is that the highs don’t feel rolled off to me in the slightest and yet are never overly bright. So the T2+ may be the way to go for me. That said it will still likely run me 2k or so on the trade-in and I’m concerned it won’t be that much of a bump up from the T2. So hard to tell these things auditioning speakers in unfamiliar environments. Recently I was prepared to buy a pair of DeVore Nines locally but was on the fence - the owner was kind enough to let me take them home and audition them directly against the T2. And when I did... I was shocked by how much I preferred the T2. It wasn’t even close. And those Nines retailed for over twice the price of the new price of the T2 and many respected reviewers used them as a reference. Goes to show... speakers are a very personal choice and price tags do not tell the tale
