Got it pared down now - Revel, Dunlavy or Genesis?


Hi:

Thanks to ALL of you for all the helpful insights in my last thread (best speakers for rock/classic rock).

I am waiting to hear from a couple of sellers, and will soon have a new pair of (used) speakers for my system. Here are my choices:

Dunlavy SC-V;
Genesis V;
Revel Ultima Studio.

I am driving them with ARC M300 mkiII tube monoblocks, a BAT VK5i w/ NOS Siemens Falcon 6922s/TungSol 5881s and a (soon to be purchased) Cary 306/200. I listen VERY LOUDLY in a BIG room with glass along half of one wall, berber carpeting and high, sloping ceiling.

So...any comments, likes/dislikes regarding the speakers above in this application?

Thanks (again) - Jeff

rzado could you explain why you like the Dunlavy IV better than the V ? having much preferred the V over the IV in my room previously I am trying to figure out why you would prefer the IV? for classic rock music its possible for a speaker to have too resolution which the Genesis could definitely provide too much of due to the ribbon drivers, I would personally choose the Dunlavy V has the right amount of resolution and very good bass response and definition and large rooms and loud volume is not a problem.
