Revel GEM or Wilson Cub 2 ?


I am thinking about upgrading my beloved Wilson Audio "Cub 1" speakers, which function really great in my 19 m² room. Now I have the chance to purchase one of the aforementioned speakers. From what I have read about the speakers I prefer the Revel.

- Has anyone ever compared the Revel GEM to the Cub2?
- Is the GEM capable of delivering enough bass? I was quite surprised, how good the Cub 1 performed in that area and need a speaker that can deliver at least 50 hz at higher volumes.
- Would the Revel F-50 be a good pick for my room or is it just too big?
- Any other suggestions?

Thanks very much!

Best regards,

Benedikt

Personally, I feel that the CUB2 is sonically somewhere between the Duette and the Sophia. The Krell LAT-2 also dips down in the low 40s-Hz, with a nominal impedance of 6-ohms and weighs in at the same (heavy) 75lbs. It would be an interesting A/B/C comparison between the Duette/CUB2/LAT-2. You would need to find a Krell / Wilson Dealer to be sure. Easy for the CUB2 to be overlooked when you’ve got the Sophia and Watt/Puppy, that will fit in the same space.
