That has to be an exaggeration. A garbage truck next to your house won't crack the foundation, and 10 subs doesn't even get close to sound of Waste Management trucks outside your house :P
I have never heard the Revels before. There is a Revel dealer in town but unfortunately they only have their book shelf line on the floor. How would you describe the sound qualities of them? To be more specific the F208's or the 206's. You can make direct comparisons to the B&W Dseries (804), Proac (d28) or even Linn as I have given them an audition.
Revels are wonderful, but if you do wish to try something different, neutral, and potentially exquisite, consider trying to nab one of the few sets of Pioneer S1EX still available (perhaps NOS). Very under-appreciated, so not the easiest to resell, perhaps, but odds are that is not the path you would choose to take once you get them dialed in.
