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.

You're ready to drop an amount that certainly warrants getting the room prepared to exploit whatever you decide on.

It will be a waste if you can't get them out into the room 4-6ft from the front wall along with diffusion/damping. Fancy speaker cables and footers will NOT compensate for not being unable to meet this requirement.

Your amp and whatever linestage  in use will be fine until can plug in a "proper" 2 channel  amp and linestage. 

Demo highly recommended.
