I know the CR8 had the 1" Kortec, but I thought the smaller CR6 had a 3/4 inch Kortec.... I could be mistaken though. I agree with the other poster though that the CR8 was more esthetically pleasing to look at than the CR9 and to my ears was more for lack of a better word precise. Also I thought the cabinets on the second generation CR series were kind of cheap looking in comparison to the more solid looking and sounding first generation CR's....
