What are your thoughts about moving up product line(s) within a Company?


It seems safe to say that moving from a company's $300 bookshelf speaker to its $3000 + bookshelf gets you improvements.  But do folks have examples or opinions on doing this within a company's product lines?  

This is certainly a topic open a discussion as opposed to answering question.

What do you know or think here?

I have moved up the line with Thiel loudspeakers starting with the SCS 4, then 1.7, then 2.7 speakers. I could definitely hear good improvements everytime I moved up the line. The more expensive speaker always had sweeter and more refined highs, as well as punchier and more extended bottom end.

+1!

In my case I upgraded from Golden Ear Triton One to Golden Ear Triton Reference speakers.
