What speakers have you mistakenly let go and then later repurchased?
I've never sold then repurchased a pair of speakers but do wish I still had the Silverline SR11s that I sold. At the time, I didn't have a sub and moved to a pair (Revel M20) that had more bass on their own. I'd really like to hear how the SR11s s...

Opinions on Revel M20 vs PMC TB2+
Anyone out there have thoughts on these two speakers? 
Amp upgrade for Revel M20 speakers
The EE M88 looks really interesting but I have no idea if 40W of tube amplication will be enough for the Revel M20s. They are rated at 87dB efficiency and I listen up to levels of 100dB peak at about 10 feet from the speakers. Does anyone out ther...

Amp upgrade for Revel M20 speakers
Thanks for the replies.RW,I hadn't thought of the Emo amps but I'll look into them now. Do you have any idea how the Emo amps would compare to the B&K I'm currently using? The Revels may actually be even lower efficiency than their stated 87dB...
