@audionoobie Reading between the lines is sounds like you liked and respected the KEFs but the Revivals captured your heart as well as your head. I’d go with the Atalante 3 if I was you. Just my $0.02 FWIW.
New speakers for $5000
I’m looking for new speakers for about $5,000. My integrated amp is a Luxman 505z and I have a Rel s/812. The source is an Innuous Pulse with the LPSU and a Chord dac. The room is about 12 by 16. I like acoustic, blues and jazz. I was thinking about the Harbeth Compact 7Es 3 xd 2 or the Totem Forest. I’d grateful for any input. Thanks.

@hugo1 - I have the Luxman 590axii. You might check out the Buchardt s400 mkii. I have my paired my Luxman with those speakers (I own them) and it’s a recommended combo, especially as your amp is more powerful than the 590axii. |
@soix Think I'm still going to go with the Kef's. Vandersteen 1ci's have been my daily driver for a while now and I'm looking forward to having something with more clarity and resolution. Down the road, if there is a good deal on a gently used pair of Atalante's I will pick them up as well. They are pretty special. |
