Audio advice has the 226be grey and white on sale for $2340 each ($4680 a pair). So still about $1600 more than a pair of 126be on sale which is significant but it is really an amazing performer. The bass rolls off pretty early on the 226be and would probably be pretty flat even in a small room.
Anyway the 126be sounds real nice but lacks bass extention. I would need subs to really enjoy them. I owned the 228be for about a year and thought they were great with sub and honestly the 226be sounds almost exactly like the 228be. The 126be sounds a bit different than the rest of the Revel Be line. Good in it’s own way if the lack of bass does not bother you or you plan to use subs.
