I currently have a pair of Theos speakers. I’d like to move up and purchase something used. What would the next step up be? Would it be the Ethos or Summit X? I realize the Ethos is the same as the Theos just with powered subs. I don’t know if that improvement alone would be worth it. I’d like any upgrade to be considerably better. I have a REL S510 so my low end is covered. What should I be looking at? I realize the Summit X is a big price jump. Maybe the Summit or Montis?
 
I went from Ethos => Montis => ESL 13.

There was a clear improvement at each step. I choose Montis over Summit X primarily because Montis was cheaper
yet the panel size of the Montis was the same.

If you have a sub already, then the fact that the Summit X has larger woofers than the Montis shouldn't really matter (Montis
only had 1 woofer compared to Summit X's 2 woofers).

The Montis sounded great. A big step up from the Ethos.
 
That’s what I was looking for. That’s what I’ll do… wait for a set of months at a reasonable price. Thanks for your help!
