Revel Concerta2 F36 vs Monitor Audio Silver 10


I think I may have narrowed it down to these two choices, based on reviewer comments about their sound character, but unfortunately, can't audition either in my area.  I'm very likely to commit the mortal audio sin of buying speakers without listening to them, but alas, they have to be better than what I currently have, which is nothing.  Not to mention, my wife wants something to fill the void of my recently sold speakers!  

I decided at the eleventh hour not to buy a pair of Performa3 F208's, without listening to those either, because I just don't want to spend that much on speakers at the moment.

There doesn't seem to be much out there on the Revel F36, presumably because it's so new.

Thoughts?

Thanks for the great input...I figured I'd get something to tide me over for a couple of years, so I can really search for something that will get me through another 10.  I just don't see the need to spend $3K+ on a short term fix, but do want great sound.  I'd really love a pair of Avantegarde's, or something along those lines in the future.

The Silver 10's are around $400 more than the F36's, so I'm curious if there's $400 worth of sonic's there or not.  Researching on the net, it seems the F36's are pretty sparse in dealer showrooms in general.  I wonder if Revel made the speaker sound too good to have it next to the Performa3 series.  8)


I'd also be interested in a comparison to the Silver 8 as well.  Although Revel has a stellar reputation, there seems to be some common disappointment that the system is now a 2.5-way, rather than a 3-way.

I would think with Voecks behind the design, that shouldn't be much of a concern, but who knows.
