Odyssey mono question

I have been reading half day about Odyssey monos (run into first thread by accident - must say happy one - and later read about fifty more of them here, on Audioreview, and others), must say I'm impressed. Because I'm in transition period from MF A300 to (Clayton M100, Pass X250, was considering ASL hurricane).

Stereo Times on April 15, 1999 stated:
"
but it comes damn close to matching the Clayton, (falling behind slightly to the Clayton’s wonderful top end and superior inner detail).
"
I wish I could read such comparison for M100 and mono's (extreme, Signature) version.
Have anybody made such test? Which one is better, how does it compare, if at all. I know that M100 is more expensive but odyssey mono's, but according to rave reviews it was able to compete with 3 times more expensive equipment???
Would appreciate if somebody could shed any light on this topic for me.

There is info here when the extremes came out - archive odyssey at this site -- not much activity here anymore though --- odyssey is currently at audiocircle.com forum

when the extremes first came out the upgrade was 500$ or so.
i have a standard set of monos for my sub(one for each speaker -vmps large sub) and a set of extremes for my mains (4ohm 89db -3.5 way).

klause is on vacation right now till some time in august(its posted at his forum at audiocircle)he will happily answer your questions when he gets back-your better off asking him than us- he likes to talk.

p.s. go back to the odyssey web page, look at the very bottom and click odyssey mexico,then click the amp on the web page, hehehe the specs for the extreme and standard monos, its actualy a better page than klaus's

Rcziech,
it help even too much, I got to know another contender AVA Fet Valve 550Ex from this page, it is supposed to beat eXtremas.
Life is not easy to me, when I'm close to make decision I'm getting to know another one, and I'm lost again :)

Polara,

Wccoe,

though I would appreciate if you be willing to tell exactly what you have meant, I'm intrigued :)
