All I can say is that i own the Sonata IIIs and find them much more detailed, better high frequency definition than the Focus 20/20s. The Sonatas are great for producing string instruments so life like. On the other hand, the Focus 20/20s I found played louder with much more bass energy. The Sonatas had more of a delicate cue. Great for jazz music but not too good on heavy rock and roll. Where I find the Focus 20/20s might be a little better on the heavy rock and roll music. I hope this helps your decision.
Silverline Sonata III or Legacy Focus 20/20?
Please provide your suggestion.

I like the bass of my current Thiel 3.6, the high and mid from my past Silverline Sonata I. I am planning to replace my Thiel 3.6 with Sonata III but also interested in Legacy Focus 20/20 but no way to audit them. I am open to other speaker as well, please provide your suggestion on my next speaker selection.
Thanks in advance.
