Those of you who have heard the Studio 20's right up through the Studio 100's, where would you rate the Studio 40's in comparison to the 20's and the 60's. I have 20's and I'm thinking of trading up to the 40's so I can get a bit more bass out of them for musical applications. Do the 40's sound "closer" to the 20's or to the 60's? The differences are:
Studio 20's and Studio 40's - both bookshelf design.
but:
Studio 40's and Studio 60's - both have 3 drivers, one tweeter, one mid, and one woofer.
On the site, the specs say that the Studio 20 actually has a BETTER frequency response than the 40's.

The 20's - On-Axis (0°) ±2 dB from 54 Hz - 22 kHz
The 40's - On-Axis (0°) ±2 dB from 62 Hz - 22 kHz
They both have the same LFE according to the specs. 36Hz. I would have assumed that the 40 would produce better lows, since it has a bigger box and has a pseudo 3-way setup, whereas the 20 only has two drivers. Can anyone help me get some clarity on this?
What gives?
