Revel F228be


So I bought a pair of B&W cm10 when I first graduated. They are fantastic and was my first high end speakers. I got my masters last year and got a good paying job. I want to treat myself with a new pair of speakers. Which speakers do you guys recommend for around $7k to $8k. I recently heard about Revel and read more about them. A lot of people have high regards for Revel as they make great speakers that compete with speakers that are much more expensive. I have seen some Ultima 2 used for around this price range as well. I have an SVS pb4000 as a sub. The amp is Rotel 1585.

I second @kota1 ’s advice above although I’d hold off on the 2nd sub for now.

The room is, indeed, a major player in the sound, check out Grimani , an expert in the matter.

Trying out several speakres is also mandatory in my book as well as great fun. 8k entitles you to having fun before you spend!

Finally the F228b: they have very good FR characteristics, I can’t say how much of a value for money they are. When it comes to Revel I much prefer the Salons.
