@kirkwallace - I'd suggest auditioning those Revels with your amp since their beryllium tweeter can be a bit ruthless with Class D amplification, similar in that respect to the Triangles.
Harbeth 30.2 XD Vs Triangle Magellan Duetto 40th anniversary
Does anybody have experience comparing the sound of the above mentioned two bookshelf speakers, especially when driven by a solid, mid-fi SS integrated amp/dac/streamer (NAD c399 with the bluesound module)? Music would mainly be classic jazz/bebop/blues and jazz vocals, with a touch of classic rock (e.g., Stones, The Who, Zepplin ).
This would be for a second system in room that is about 10x20 ft, but most listening will be near-field, ~6-8ft from the speakers, which I would mount on stands.
I’d love to be able to audition both pairs in my space, but probably will not be able to do that. So, any observations, general or specific, will be very much appreciated.

Good point @bill_k |
Good luck @kirkwallac, hope you find your grail! |
Thank you @bill_k . IItvmaybe too much to hope for for this particular room. But maybe given the price I got those Revels for, if need be, I could look to just use the C399 as a streamer//dac/pre-amp and find a friendlier amp. Any suggestions as to which solid state amps (ion the 5-10k range (new or used)) play best with those Revels and their Be tweeter? |
