7a's or Boston Acoustics HD-8?

[ZillaRam]

Need a little help concerning these two.
I have the BA's now that I use under my deck during the summer, so I can get my groove on!
Saw these 7a's forsale locally. Anyone have input if I would be moving up in sound quality etc. by going with the Polks?
THANKS!

Yes, put the A7s out on your deck,your groove will come on!

I prefer the overall "tone" of the 7As to any of the Boston Acoustics speakers I've heard. There are a pair - well, actually, three, A70s and a pair of small BA speakers - A40s? sitting downstairs as I type this. That said, I've never heard nor seen the HD-8, so I am really only speculating.

I've been happy with a pair of Monitor 7As since 1978, though...
