Here are the Sopra 2 & 3Notice the Sopra3 (white) is taller and wider compare to the Sopra 2 (blue)
The Sopra 3 definitely sound better as they have bigger driver.

I heard the Sopra 2 at the Axpona show Chicago. I thought is sounded kind of cold/bright. It could have been the source material as they were playing an 80s Phil Collins Album. But at least they had the guts to play that type of material, most rooms played it safe and only played audiophile type recordings.
