Verity's Fidelio vs Coincident's Total Eclipse


I recently placed a post about the Coincident Super Eclipse, and received several good posts of advice.Thank you all!!! I have another dilemma; The other day I heard the Verity Fidelio, and was knocked over by their claity, dynamics and wide but solid soundstage.Thet were driven by a McCormack amp and Sim Moon player, and were connected to electronics by Acoustic Zen Satori speaker cable. They are two grand more than the Super Eclipse. My only criticusm of them was they sounded a bit bright and forward, but never edgy or overblown. It seems from the posts about the Coincident speakers that they really need a good tube amp to bloom and sound good. In addition, they seem to be a difficult set-up from what I have read in Soundstage and Absolute Sound. I don't have the dough right now to go shopping for a OTL amp. I like the Aragon 4004 MKII that I currently own. So, does anybody have any input about the Verity Fidelio's?? Are they worth the money, and how do they compare with other speakers in that 8k price range??? Thanks again, Jimbo

On the new review of the Total Eclipses on www.stereotimes.com the reviewer used solid state amps for the review.
