I have not heard of anyone on this forum talking about having both the ERRs and MG944, but I may have missed it.
I think one thing to consider with the Decware line is that they are family, designed, voiced and built by the same guys. So the overall sound of each will have different qualities inherent to the design, but what is determined as sounding the best within the design is based in similar criteria and the same critical listener "squad." They work until it sounds like music!
I have 944s and HR-Ones, the HR-Ones combining front driver/tweeter and a radial. They both are awesome, and quite similar in many ways, being neutral, great extension, smooth detail, deep, natural sounding bass...not too tight, not too loose.
In my room, the HR-Ones are mellower and more refined, and my MG944s (a few years ago version), a little more forward, and I would say a little faster feeling (no inductor coil in mine). I, personally, would not call them too forward, and I would not take these comparisons as degrading to the MG...I really like the speaker. The HR-One radial is a sweet driver though, beautifully implemented, and it rounds out the sound nicely contributing to a smooth and sweet midrange that probably has more noticeable micro detail/texture. I can't say if I would like the ERRs or not, but I do like the front driver effect. In my room, both speakers provide an amazing sound stage, wide...deep and saturated, with very convincing ambience close and far that stretches out forever.
Hopefully, some useful comparisons will show up here, but finally, I agree with sberger...if you get serious about Decware, ZYGI or Steve are the ones I would ask, very likely helping you balance your preferences and room through the filters of those who know the speakers best.....
