Okay, so lesser of 2 evils? The 2nd generation Reference (like 201/2 bookshelf) or the 3rd generation Reference (like Reference 1 bookshelf) ?
I don't like the 3rd generation aesthetic or nomenclature. The 3rd generation should have a "3" in the name somewhere.
The first generation Reference was 201. Then the second generation Reference was 201/2. The 3rd generation should be 201/3.
I guess some people don't know how to name speakers.
Like KEF 201 --> KEF 201/2 --> KEF Reference 1 ???
It should be 201 ---> 201/2 ---> 201/3, etc.
Or B&W 802D ---> B&W 802 Diamond? As if the 1st generation was NOT already a diamond tweeter?
It should be 802D --> 802D2 ---> 802D3, etc.
I hope Revel gets it right. Like Revel Salon --> Revel Salon2 --> Revel Salon3.
