Revel F228be

I second @kota1 ’s advice above although I’d hold off on the 2nd sub for now.

The room is, indeed, a major player in the sound, check out Grimani , an expert in the matter.

Trying out several speakres is also mandatory in my book as well as great fun. 8k entitles you to having fun before you spend!

Finally the F228b: they have very good FR characteristics, I can’t say how much of a value for money they are. When it comes to Revel I much prefer the Salons.

Save yourself some $$$ and invest in an upgrade to your electronics.

B&W CM10 is the equivalent of the current series 702 S3, which retail for $7,000 a pair right now. I used to own both CM10 S1 then the Revel F228Be. Yes, I think the Revel sounded a bit better overall, certainly different, but not sure if it is a big upgrade from your CM10, assuming they are still in good working condition. IMO

The room is 50% of the sound, make sure part of your budget goes into treating your room.

Agreed.

Finally if you have a local dealer try comparing an electrostaic like the Martin Logan Classic ESP 9, a classic like the Klipsch Cornwall, and then something known for extreme accuracy like the ATC SCM40.

I would take the Revel over any of the above but..........................

When you compare speakers that are very different you will hopefully learn which is suited for your taste.

............ this is good advice.

I personally would buy something better than the Rotel.  You already have nice speakers, work on your electronics for better system synergy.
