Revel M20 vs.B W 805 vs.Dynaudio 1.3SE

Mcne! With all due respect, what the heck are you talking about?? Tell us why a good music speaker is bad for home theater. I can not wait to read your reply!

I know the three speakers in question intimately. They are all quite different sounding, and each has its own virtues. I think the baby Dyn's are the best of the three.
The 805 LOOKS the best but has basically NO bass, going from memory, it is rated to about 56Hz which coupled with the metal tweeter makes it a very clean sounding, fast, punchy speaker, with great focus and precise detail. The Revel M20 is a bit dry, crisp, yet seductive. The M20 looks lame and I don't like the tweeter adjustment at all. The Dynaudio has a little smearing going on in the lower frequency ranges which is to be expected since this little speaker produces impressive bass output -- rated at 37Hz.

Anyother two/way to consider would be the ProAc 1SC which my friend is a GREAT little speaker! You have to hear it to believe it.

Mcne,

Good reply! I guess that I would have to agree in this case that Video is NOT the priority. It is a frustrating experience to mesh a fine 2 channel setup together with a home theater system but it can be done.

Although I don't understand the argument that good 2 channel speakers don't work for video.

Get this... My buddy has a pair of $25K Dynaudio Consequence speakers which were the TOP of the line Dynaudio before the Evidence came out, as his L/R for Music and Home theater. Needless to say, with the 1000 watt amps, he does not need a subwoofer.

I think he gets good enjoyment out of his music AND his home theater as well. I agree the experience would be different if he used Dynaudio 1.3SE's But... I doubt it would be any better!
