Monitor Audio Studio 20SE vs. GR20 or GR60

I have had the GR60's for a year or so and can tell you that they are wonderful and I think a very good value as well. I unfortunately have not heard the Studio 20 so can't make a comparison. The GR60's are very fast for a dynamic speaker, have very good top to bottom response (very good bass for having only 6.5 inch drivers), good soundstage, and at 90db quite efficient (I am using them with 35w tube amps which is enough in my environment). I think if I remember correctly, they got very good reviews on audioreview.com.

I've had the GR60 for about 2 1/2 years now and I like them a lot. I remembered reading on this forum somewhere, some reviewers didn't like the image that the GR60 put out. I don't have that problem. I have them matched w/ a Unison Research SR1 and the sounds are clear, realistic, very well image and excellent bass in a 14x17 room.
I listened to the Studio 20 prior to purchasing the GR60, and the GR60 is better in every aspect.

I have a pair of Studio 20se's, a pair of Studio 60's, and I've listened to
GR60's.

Studio 20se's are fantastic two way speakers.

What they do, they do amazingly well.

GR60's are a much larger speaker with more drivers, etc.

You can often find the GR60's used for around $2,500.

You can often find Studio 20se's used for around $1,000.

Not really fair to compare these two.

If you have the budget and a big enough room, go for the GR 60's.

Studio 60's went for around $12,000.

You virtually never see a used pair of Studio 60's for sale.

No one seems to want to part with them, including me.

If you ever see a pair of Studio 60's for sale -- grab 'em!

Since that isn't likely to happen, go for the GR 60's.
