They are both very good but are different.I owned the latest Brio and the Brio-R as well as the IO. I prefer the IO and Brio-R to the latest Brio.
The Brio was great, I've since had the elex r and currently have an exposure 3010s2d but thinking I'm going to change up and get the new elicit once I sell my Harbeths.
