    Both are really good, I would say it would depend on the room you are putting them in and how much are you willing to spend on amplification.

    The 1.2tl's need room to breath, and soak up a ton of power.
    Dodd - Battery Preamp
    Monarchy Audio SE100 Delux - mono power amps
    Sony DVP-NS999ES - SACD player
    ADS 1230 - Polk SDA 2B
    DIY Stereo Subwoofer towers w/(4) 12 drivers each
    Crown K1 - Subwoofer amp
    Outlaw ICBM - crossover
    Beringher BFD - sub eq

    Where is the remote? Where is the $%#$% remote!

    I have the 3.1TL's. They are fine speakers.
    They are about as big of speaker as any home would reasonably need. They aren't a 1.2TL though.

    I compared the 3.1, 2.3, and 1.2 when I purchased my 3.1's.
    The 2.3 and 1.2 sounded a bit better than the 3.1.
    But, the 3.1 did not in anyway sound worse. It was just a little less full sounding - thats all.

    I think the 3.1TL is the most overlooked polk speaker ever manufactured. What it does, it does wonderfully. Problem is, not to many people know that.
