Speakers suggestions for ML 335, 380s, 39


Looking to upgrade my speakers and need some suggestions as I live in area without highend audio and am unable to audition quality speakers. My price range is around 5000.00. I am considering Thiel CS2.4 and the Revel F50's. Opinions, suggestions welcome. Thanks

I just got back from a dealer and just heard the Revel F50 (4k$ new) and the Magnepan 3.6 (4.3k$ new)

The Revels were the clear winner (and came out to 300$ less!)

Go and listen for yourself.
In that price range, my first choice would be the Tyler Acoustics Linbrook Signature System speakers at just about 5K bought direct from Tyler...

A store brand pair of speakers that I also liked in that range that costs a bit less (but also was not as good sounding to my ears) are the Dali Helicon800s. Very nice finish on these, BTW, if that is important to you...

Both are worth an audition... The Tylers are hard to audition due to their Internet direct sales, but they are worth the extra effort of going to someone's home and hearing them, IMO.

Good luck,
