coincident total eclipse/v.schweikert gen3 hse

I would say it depends on the amplifier you will use with them. They are both excellent.

I've not heard the eclipse, but I have configured my entire system around VR-4 Gen III HSE's. The VR-4's continue to amaze with every upgrade. I can't see myself changing speakers anywhere in the near, or long term for that matter. I will say that, imo, they need some breathing room. Please see my system and feel free to ask questions.

tvad, i will shape the other components according to my speaker choice. So it is not a limiting factor on my choice.
Thanks,

Then you need to hear them both, because they're both well regarded, yet they sound differently. Only you can decide which you will prefer.

Good luck.
