The small price difference buys you a taller cabinet, a dedicated woofer (2.5 way crossover as in the Proac 2.5), bass down to 35 Hz, maybe 30 Hz in-room.
Last but not least, the midrange driver does not have to reproduce bass, which dramatically reduces intermodulation distortion as compared to any 2-way speaker.
I have a pair burning-in right now.I listened to the 11L, fell in love with it and asked to audition the 22L at home.
I hope it does the 11L trick (it plays more music than much more expensive speakers).
The 11L is so good that I left it connected to my main system (Audio Aero Capitole CDP, Gamut D-200, VDH and Tone Audio cables) for a month, listening to all my favorite CDs over and over again. I swear I never felt the need to play audiophile CDs! Music just pours out of those babies. The 11L is a classic budget product IMHO.Good luck in your search
