Speakers suggestions for ML 335, 380s, 39


Looking to upgrade my speakers and need some suggestions as I live in area without highend audio and am unable to audition quality speakers. My price range is around 5000.00. I am considering Thiel CS2.4 and the Revel F50's. Opinions, suggestions welcome. Thanks

I'm a big fan of Magnepan if you've got the room. I have
the ML 335, 380S, 37 and 360. I'm using them with Magnepan
1.6QR's and a Rel Strata III subwoofer. If you can go
to $5000, seriously consider the Magnepan 3.6's. They offer
spectacular soundstage, imaging and state-of-the-art high
end with the ribbon tweeter. They (like all Magnepans) demand a quality high power amp, and the 335 is up to the
task. Can't speak to the Revels, though they have a good
reputation. I've owned Thiel 3.5's and was less than enamored with them. They are finicky about source components and can often sound bright and harsh.
