I can think of another instance where only 2 inches would be worse buddy :p

Smaller ones give you more pleasure with higher resolution, larger ones give others more pleasure as bit density is lower.

Gary how did the Lehman do? They've always had a reputation for great value.

Very detailed, highly resolved, tonally very neutral. The best of the commercially available ones.

the linto was optimized for the klyde/troika carts (150-200uv)

That might be why I thought that it sounded the most compressed of the whole lot - the OC9 was probably already bumping up against its maximum headroom.
