This is what the dealer in my area told me (calgary)
The fit and finish of the older model are a not as refined
The drivers used are a lower grade (the 9900 tweeters on the f688 are worth 400 USD)
But he said one of the biggest differences is that the crossover and the tolerance between drivers (less than wilson watts speakers)
With the older f68 you do not get same refined imaging, and 3-d sound stage, The new cross-overs bring out the liquid mids and highs. The eton drivers produce a dense (for lack of better word) bass that you would not think to come out of such a small driver.
But remember this is all coming from a dealer.
