Upgrading from Thiel CS3.6 to Avalon


I'm considering upgrading my 20yr-old Thiel CS3.6 to Avalon Opus or Eidolon. Do you guys think it worth the upgrade? My listening room is measuring 17(W)x13(L)x8(H) ft.(speakers along the long wall) Which one(Opus or Eidolon) makes a better choice?
BTW, my other components: Esoteric K-05, Gryphon Diablo, audience Au24e XLR and cables.
Thanks!!

Do you mean the Avalon Acoustics Compass?

I have a pair of Eidolons and they may very well be my last speaker. I never liked their presentation in stores or at shows. When I brought a pair into the house it was like hearing them for the first time.

I've heard a couple of different views (gossip) regarding the Compass, its goals and target customer.

I'd suggest adding Vandersteen to your short list.
