Revel 328Be owners...what do you think?

thanks @james663 @mikhailark and @steve59 for your thoughts.  

I have the opportunity to pick up a second hand pair of the 328s at a pretty good price, and am currently running the 228s paired with a big rel.  Knowing the tweeter is different on the 328s and that the bass drivers are different has me a bit intrigued.  I might just go for it  and then I'd be able to compare these side by side in my home. 

@helomech  I can get these for few k above your threshold price of $5k.  I think my 228s have been so good that I'm really tempted to try the 328s.

I'll take a look at your recommended X3s and will do some reading on them.  Appreciate you taking the time to chime in and offering alternatives.

I think I just have to see what's up with the high-end of the Be Revel line.  But I do understand it's going to be incremental gains here. 

The one thing that concerns me about the Borresen is that I typically do not like ribbon tweeters. I just find the integration between a ribbon and the traditional cones extremely difficult to master. My mind automatically goes to gaps or dynamic differences between both of those drivers technologies.

On the 228 side, Good point about being able to sell these. I'm maybe able to do both the 328s and the Borresen with that approach.... hahaha, j/k!

thanks @willyht and @helomech ...I think you both are onto something by suggesting that I find it easier to stick to the safe path here.  I need to think about that a bit more.  

The Revel 328s offer a known quantity to me...not just in terms of the sonic signature but I also know they will play nicely with my electronics and cabling.  With any other speaker all that could get thrown into disarray.

I find myself in a unique situation due to some extensive remodeling going on at my house. I'll have a new system that I can build, so this means I'll likely be moving the 228s into this new system to make room for the 328s.  One thing I could do here is perform the side-by-side with the 328s and then determine if it's worth keeping them or unloading to then move onto the Borresen or something else.

@helomech thanks for the breakdown on the technology behind the Borresen ribbon/planar tweeter and the greater background on them.  It's interesting that you find their tweeter better than the Esotar.  Having a pair of the Dynaudio Heritage Specials I have found that implementation of the Esotar to be pretty spectacular. I'll poke around more on the Borresen.
