Dynaudio v Revel

I have been auditioning a number of speakers in the $7000 to $10,000 range and due to a significant price break am leaning to the dyns. Never the less I have been impressed with the Revel Studios. It is just that right now the potential price differential is about $3500. I am using tube amps, pre and cd. Any thoughts out there? Thanks!

Which Dyns? I have the Confidence 5s and couldn't be (much) happier. I will say that the C5s are extremely analytical so your front end/amp must be up to par. I'd be curious to hear your impressions of the Revels vs the C5s. Only complaint: although the cherry finish is nice, Dynaudios are one of the most visually boring speakers in this price range.

Why the 3s vs the 5s? I've seen the 5s selling for <$6k which has got to still be less than the Revels. I have a Sonic Frontiers T3/P3, BAT VK50SE, BAT VK500 as a front end.

Elinor- Huh??? Dynaudio C5s are among the most detailed speakers available today. I'm alway open to new components, but lets be realistic about where the true faults are. Distortion and lack of detail just aren't a problem with these speakers.
