Both of these speakers received favorable reviews in Stereophile magazine back in 2002 (I think). The Joseph speaker shared their "Speaker of the Year" award while the Revel was put in to class "A" category.
I owned the Revels and felt,aside from their looks, they may have been one of the best speakers I have owned to date. The M-20s were one of those components that make you say "I never heard that in their before" with familiar music. Very detailed but not annoyingly so. Plenty of bass also as long as your rooms not too big. Should never have sold them.
I've never heard the Josephs so can't help you there. Check out the Stereophile reviews.
