Halation vs Sonic Silver
Both from Behr's palette. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Halation (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Sonic Silver (LRV 47), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 9.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Halation vs Sonic Silver Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Halation on one side and Sonic Silver on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
