Best speakers for classic rock
I’ve been upgrading my system for several years now and each pair I bring home excells at something. That said, I do think some speakers are natural matches for specific music genres. This is self promoting but still true, I have a pair of speaker... 
Digital Room Correction For Speakers
When I couldn’t get decent bass from my revel salon2’s I knew my room was a stinker and the experts said the only solution was multiple subs to eliminate the nulls. What about ARC? I gave up on conventional speakers and bought a pair of DSP8000’s ... 
Paradigm Persona series
I couldn’t convince myself to buy the 9h even at the sale prices. Instead I bought a used pair of DSP8000’s.  The correction available from the speakers is limited in comparison to what the 9h offers, but is clearly useful and the more popular use...

bose 901 series 6, pull them in 2'x2' from each corner and hang them at 2' down and you'll find what you're looking for. 
Digital Room Correction For Speakers
In the price range we're playing any speaker is going to need room treatments and anyone with experience will tell you the least amount of electronic room correction needed the better the results will be. I'm in the same boat as you(or similar) wi...

Rockport Atrias versus Revel Salon 2
The salon2 are power hungry but capable as any and the additional drivers will allow them to play louder without compression. a be tweeter and 5 titanium drivers will move some air. 
Speaker With Least Room Interaction
I believe it is the nature of the VA's to peak around 100hz, most speakers do in order to get a higher low fq -3db number. have you tried plugging the top port? then the bottom, then both? another solution is digital room correction.  
B&W 802D tweeter replacement
often domes will get pushed in and have no audible effect on the sound. You said you liked the sound as is so, enjoy it. 
Do you "treat" your speakers rubber surrounds?
NO 
Looking for speaker recommendations
There's A pair of Revel salon 2's for under $10k and while they need watts seriously 500 per side to come alive and then careful placement. I think the stereophile reviewer had them 7' out and 5' apart! going by memory here, but while they're not ... 
Paradigm Persona series
I used to be in the camp that a tweeter didn't even have to be auditioned to know how it sounded based solely on the material of the dome, but I listen first now because i've been proven wrong a few times. listening to speakers that sounded so goo... 
Paradigm Persona series
My dealer, i've probably said this already, could probably make my logitech speakers sound stunning so i'm not surprised I didn't find the 3f or 7f bright. detailed and extended for sure. I also wonder about the credibility of reviewers and if the...

Thanks for the reply.  
Speaker Recommendation: 20K range
Revel PerformaBe have the best waveguide by far, and will sound the largest in soundscape and lead in clarity in terms of vocals. I don’t find the bass or highs with it necessarily the most resolving, and part of the trade-off of that ultra-wide...
