yeah, upon further research, i noticed that the quartz's measurement of 110" is actually a width length including the vestibules (i think). so the inside dimensions are actually a bit larger on this model.

Could be a variety of reasons, but at first glance- material weight, slightly taller, larger vestibules, gear loft...all combined could easily add up to the 11oz difference.
