Revel F52 or Canton Vento Reference


Been a member here a while but never posted anything yet....

Anyone care to opine on the the differences between the Revel F52 and the Canton Vento Ref. line up ? I'll be using this with Revel perfoma 12" subs and the following: Classe Six pre, Mark Levinson 23.5 power amp, Sota turntable, and a Classe Dac-1 / Parasound transport. My room size is about 13' x 20'. I listen to all types of music but mostly jazz, and rock at mid volume levels. I've heard both manufacturers products and value other observations.
Thanks in advance
John

Depends on which Reference you are talking about.

The Cantons are a quick tight and slightly warm speaker, with the larger reference (3.2, 1) added exceptional bass, they are a bit more friendly and more musical to my ears than the F52. Even the small Cantons do bass surprisingly well, but not to the degree the F52 will given it's three woofers per side.
