I kinda like Tomt's suggestion to keep both on hand.

I would hands down prefer the 802G for hifi apps in a normal/average size listening room.

For bigger rooms, high SPL apps, or any significant "duty" i'll take the 2425 for it's ruggedness and high output ability. It's a bit more sensitive and will handle considerably more power than the 802.

2425 will do a great job punching the crispness of a live performance to the furthest reaches of a 500 seat club.

802G will do a great job of rendering a live performance in your living room from a good source.

Just my .02...........
