Right fronts for Center Def Tech CLR 3000 : Def Tech 7001sc or 7002

[arunvb]

Initiallly I was set on the Def Tech 7002 (2 x 5.25" midrange, 1 12" sub) for the front speakers, CLR 2500 (2 x 5.25" midrange) for center and the Martin Logan Depth for the subwoofer. Then I auditioned the CLR 3000 (2 x 6.5" midrange) and did a side by side comparison with the CLR 2500 and WOW, I was blown away by the CLR 3000. It just made the sound of CLR 2500 appear very hollow. I instantly dumped the CLR 2500 switched to the CLR 3000. Since I moved up one level with the center channel, would it be a good idea to move up one level to the matching 7001sc (2 x 6.5" midrange, 1 10" sub) istead of the 7002 for the fronts ?

Do you guys think getting the 7001sc instead of the 7002 will make a big difference. I am trying to audition at my local store, but I am finding it difficult to do a side by side comparison.

Can you guys give me any suggestions / thoughts on this ? If anyone has compared 7001sc with 7002, what is your feedback ?

Thanks in advance,
Arun

I use the 7001 SCs in my home office along with the CLR3000 and BPVXs. I heard the 7000s when I auditioned the 7001 SCs and really didn't think there was much of a comparison, especially for music.
