And from what you've stated previously, your listening of the Studio 20 v.3 was a brief one at a mall store, with no comparison listenings with the 602S3. Hardly an adequate basis from which to draw conclusive preferences for one speaker over another. The only speaker in the Studio v.3 series that you have listened to extensively is the Studio 100 v.3, which is not the topic of discussion on this thread.
