Soliloquy 6.5 vs. Coincident Super Eclipse same $


I need some help. Soliloquy 6.5 vs. Coincident Super Eclipse at basically the same cost. I don't have either dealer close by for comparisons. My systems consists of the following. CJ PV-11, Musical Design D-150 amp, Denon DP-60L turntable with Denon Cartridge, Musical Design CD player with Nordost Red Dawn interconnects and Kimber 8TC or Wireworld Atlantis speaker cables. I need to make a decision soon.
Thanks, Jim

Gmood1, My room stereo room is 13x17 with an 8.5 foot ceiling. The floor is fully carpeted. The speakers will be on each side of a Salamander Twin 30 rack 44 inches wide. Thanks for the help.
Jimd, I have a pair of Soliloquy 6.3 speakers in a great room 13x28. They fill this room with ease, at 13x17, I would be scared that the 6.5s are too much for yor room. This is sad as I love my 6.3s, and have heard some good things about the 6.5s. Also, I have mine 3' from the back wall and have heard advise on the 6.5 back wall clearance as much as 5'. I have gotten some advise on placement from Soliloquy, they were very helpful. Although they won't be unbiased as to which speaker to buy. There is a dealer in the suburbs of Chicago called "Holm Audio". This is where I first heard Soliloquy, I believe that they carried Coincident also. They might be of some help.

Jim I will have to agree with Todd.The 6.3s would be better for your room.The 6.5s would over power your room without a doubt! I also have 6.3s.. if I had the room I wouldn't mind having the 6.5s either!Good luck my friend.
Gentlemen, Thanks for the advice. I have not heard from any Coincident fans so, I think that I will stay within the Soliloquy family of products. This may end up costing me a lot of money if I do go with the 6.5s. I may have to buy a bigger house. Thanks for all your help, Jim
Oops. Maybe I am late but a very good friend has Coincident Super Eclipses in a room which is probably 13 x 20. He runs them from the narrow end facing the long way (we tried them the other way but it does NOT work. They definitely need to be out from the wall quite a bit (4' is better than 3') but they make beautiful music and work well in the room (no treatments, carpeting on floor). He drives them with an ARC VT200. They are among the best if not THE best dynamic speakers I have ever heard (my other favorite dynamic speakers so far are Avalon Eidolons but they are substantially less flexible in terms of amplification (and more bucks)) and among the high efficiency dynamic speakers I have heard, they are by far the least 'colored'. They are extremely revealing and somewhat unforgiving. FWIW, they match well with Coincident speaker cables.

I have not heard the Soliloquys and as such can make no comparison. Just thought that the Coincidents needed some representation... :^)
