More air, details, much better highs, more articulating and dynamic. Granted so, the midrange is more neutral and some people may not like it, but I strongly believe that this is the best sound (my status quo are the live concerts I attend all the time) from SF brand and I had many of them with the exception of Stradivari and limited edition releases. And there is no way one can say that they bumped up Olympica - this is not true at all.
I have opportunity to buy a year old Evolution for less than 8000$. But I do love the look of the Tradition and will have to go the new purchase route. Since you own both, what would your advice be?
