PR-4
I have auditioned the Avantgarde Duos and the Kochel K300 horns (not in direct comparison), and I can say that compared to the PR4s they possess a very fatiguing sound. The PR4s sound a lot smoother and more natural in the top end, and possess a more liquid midrange.
The bottom end is tight, and always in control, unlike the Avantgarde Duos in particular there is no bloat in the midbass. And the speakers are a lot easier to set up and image superbly. I Have friends who sold their Avantgardes because no manner how much effort they put into placement, they could not get the speakers to image properly! They look fantastic and have all the benefits of horns without they harsh top end, and are a lot closer to full range!

PR-4
I only had a brief audition of PSC Audio's PR4s but they left a lasting impression.
They are a striking pair of speakers, and despite their imposing size, they are also very attractive. But what strikes one most about these speakers is their extraordinary speed and lack of compression.
Even with budget equipment, these speakers really sing. They are fast and musical, and when listening to the CD recording of Eva Cassidey live at Blues Alley they conveyed the energy of the performance more than any speaker I've heard before.
The PR4s seem to have almost limitless dynamics yet at the same time do not display the colouration that haunts many other horn-loaded designs.
I also got a chance to hear the prototype of the PR1, the entry level speaker in the range.
