Nautilus 802 vs. Revel Studio vs. Sophia 1


I've heard all 3 (though not recently) and all sounded excellent to me. Is one considered a clear stand-out over the others, or does this decision boil-down to personal preference? They'll be installed in a large room with good acoustics and powered by Krell. The N802s do have the advantage of being the least expensive, though the others are close enough for this not to be much of a factor. Thanks!

They are all nice but very different sounding. You really need to hear them side by side.
Personally, I'd stay away from the Revels just because they take several hundred hours to break in! Wow are they harsh at the beginning. After 250 or so hours they are beautiful.
I agree with Audiomadness about Coincident.
