Shoe, The 3A Sig uses the tweeter and basically the same midrange out of the Model 5 speaker(not 5A) and the associated crossover. RV said that the drivers in the Model 5 are "Cherry picked" and the others go into the 3A sig.
The 2ce Sig uses the same midrange driver as all of the 2 series with the differences in the tweeter stated above.
Sonically, the 3A Sig is much more open and refined than any of the 2 series. It will play louder and produces a bigger soundstage. You get about 90% of the Model 5's sound. It is truly a wonderful speaker.
I have gone from the 2Ci to the 2Ce to the 2Ce Sig and then finally to the 3A Sig. Each has been a marked improvement in overall sound but the jump to the 3A Sig was a leap compared to the others. I'm planning on the 5A's this summer.
