Speaker recommendation for use with a Mac ma6600

I can't imagine your amp not being able to drive the Revels. But if that's the case, maybe look at a pair of Vandersteen Model 2's. I like them much better than the Revels. I put the Model 1's next to some Revels that cost about 2x's what the 1's cost, and thought they were better. The 2's are in a completely different league. But you still need to listen to them first. Just because they're my favourite speaker doesn't mean they'll be yours. The ProAc's that Ctsooner mentions are also very nice, as is Monitor Audio. MA makes some great speakers under 2k.

Like I said and like Z has posted, you have a lot of choices. With that amp, the Proacs and Vandy's may be your best bet. Dollar for dollar on the used market you usually get a bit better value. The only thing I'd say about the Vandy 2's is that you should get a model that is within the last few years if you can find them. They will be more than my Proacs at that point, but they will sound better than the older Vandy's in my opinion.

Who told you the Mac wouldn't be enough? Come on, 200 wpc isn't enough! Maybe that info came from someone with a hearing disability!!! Personally I was never able to make the meters on my Mac 6900 go past 20-25 wpc.I think it would surprise a lot of people just how little power they're actually using.

If you like the Revels, buy them. It's your ears and eyes that have to be happy. I've had Vandy 2ci's and the combo with the Mac was too laid back and I can't listen to a speaker that has flat response across 2k-4500hz. I need it recessed about 4 or 5 decibels in that region.
