The search among the great ones - 20k+ speakers

Donjr: No offcourse not, it´s not like I NEED to spend 20k on speakers, If I find speakers that sound REALLY great for 10k, then that´s what I buy. Not that I am looking for used speakers.

Speakers I listened to and that I like is TAD Reference one (don´t have the $), Audio Note An-e (cant remember the exact model)+Ongaku = Now THAT was music! Focal Diablo was really nice too.

Ok, seems like I am forgetting Tidal!
Tidal Contriva Diacera SE or Tidal Contriva is on my list

I have to agree with ( Ritmo } When properly setup the Revel Salons are the best speakers I've heard at any price .

Tmsorosk: I have heard Revel Salons 2 at a dealer and thought it was ok, nothing special. Hopefully I´ll have another shot to auditon them.

if you find Diablo Utopia(without subwoofer) sounds nice to you then Maestro would be VERY good speakers- they retain all speed of Diablo with added "less shouty in your face presentation"- to the point where speakers can be enjoyed in long term listening. and VERY much BIGGER and authority to put same speakers in a shame, which sound slike matchbox comparing to Maestro. Maestro can play anything - from subtile 60'ies jazz to large clasical, from folk music to metal. I can not say that for any speakers including focal scala and diablo (Focal Diablo can play only vocals and small jazz groups IMHO )

but Maestro need VERY high current amplifier (not very powerfull, but very low ohm capable)

It also sensitive to equipment (thoses speakers love good amp) but they do not sound ear bleeding with medium amps/dac.

if its your sound theese speakers can be keeper for long time.

hope this helps.
