Looking for speaker recommendations

There's A pair of Revel salon 2's for under $10k and while they need watts seriously 500 per side to come alive and then careful placement. I think the stereophile reviewer had them 7' out and 5' apart! going by memory here, but while they're not plug and play they are a great speaker for the price if you have a dedicated room with little to no risk on the used market.

II am a month into a new pair of B&W 804D3’s and couldn’t be happier. Upgraded from 805S and the difference is astonishing.  To be fair, I also upgraded amp and sources, so the whole rig is substantially better than what I had before.  I have not heard the others in your list of candidates, but the people at my dealer sell Magico and told me that the A3 is a great speaker but felt the 804 is more natural in its presentation.  The guys who delivered and installed everything told me that the 804 is their favorite in the B&W 800 series. The install and listen to lots of very expensive and well reviewed stuff so I give their opinion a lot of credence. 

However, just like wine, everyone tastes something different out of the bottle, so go “tasting” to find your match. 

Frankly I’m a bit surprised that you picked the B&W’s over the Paradigm Persona 3F’s?  They’re extremely revealing of everything in front of them so I’m curious what the associated equipment was that you heard them demoed with?  They have a minimum 300 hour break in period as well and am curious about the amount of time that was on them?

 In the Vivid Audio range (which I own and highly recommend), I think you’d get more bass and performance in your room with the new Kaya range. I owned the K1s, which had excellent tight bass, amazing lively, musical, disappearing-act performance, but apparently the Kaya’s are a notch better on all counts.

Where do you live ? Whats your budget.
