Wilson Benesch ARC vs. other Scanspeak revelators


I am very interested in purchasing a pair of the WB ARCs but was unsure whether they were significantly better than other monitors that use the scanspeak revelator for a much more reasonable price (i.e. Tyler accoustics, reference 3A MM De Capo, and Focus audio). I do realize that the WBs use a slightly modified version of the revelator, and they do have a more advanced cabinet design, but do these factors significantly increase sound quality over the tylers, focus, and the like? I feel like the only monitor that compete with the WB ARC in the $5k range is the star sound (harmonic precision) caravelle. Does anyone have any other suggestions in this price range?

FWIW at $5000, the ATC SCM20-A2 should be on your shopping list, some things I know for certain, no speaker currently mentioned can play louder with less distortion and has a better phase and amplitude response. Now the only question is will you find them musical to your ear as some of the others.
