Standmount speaker suggestion


HI

I have B&W 705 s3 Signature speakers paired with a Pass Labs INT-60. While imaging and soundstage are great, I find the speakers a bit bright. What should I try next, and what would be worthy of being mated to the Pass integrated? I will buy used but keeping in line with the value of the amp, the budget is around $5000- $8000 new.

 

I realize speakers are very subjective. Just want some direction to go. 

Appreciate it.

@ullogu1 they are very similar.  They both use the same Scanspeak Revelator woofer but the Rev 7 I have uses a ring radiator tweeter where the Carrera uses a beryllium tweeter.  I believe the latest Carrera uses a soft dome tweeter.  As far as presentation they are very similar with similar specs regarding sensitivity and frequency range.  IMO one of the best price for performance deals in speakers.

Fritz.  I have Rev 7s that I love.  The Carrera is outstanding as well.  I would say they are neutral to warm but have very good detail.
