Revel 328Be owners...what do you think?
thanks @willyht and @helomech ...I think you both are onto something by suggesting that I find it easier to stick to the safe path here.  I need to think about that a bit more.   The Revel 328s offer a known quantity to me...not just in terms of ... 
Revel 328Be owners...what do you think?
I think I just have to see what's up with the high-end of the Be Revel line.  But I do understand it's going to be incremental gains here.  The one thing that concerns me about the Borresen is that I typically do not like ribbon tweeters. I just ...

@helomech  I can get these for few k above your threshold price of $5k.  I think my 228s have been so good that I'm really tempted to try the 328s. I'll take a look at your recommended X3s and will do some reading on them.  Appreciate you taking ... 
Revel 328Be owners...what do you think?
thanks @james663 @mikhailark and @steve59 for your thoughts.   I have the opportunity to pick up a second hand pair of the 328s at a pretty good price, and am currently running the 228s paired with a big rel.  Knowing the tweeter is different on ... 
REL S510 or S812
@sandrodg73 how has that big sub been working out in your room?

Hey Gang, in case you haven't seen it yet, there's a pair of black PCSs that just went up here on Agon. Happy Holidays!

@genesis168 wow sweet that you picked up an EMM Labs unit...let us know what you think about that piece and how it compares for the MA3 after getting some listening time :)

hey @genesis168 what DAC did you use prior?  I'm curious to hear.  I also have the MA3 and love it :)

@jafant  you got it!  And happy Friday to everyone :)  
Thiel Owners
@jafant thank you and it's great to be back :) I'm running a Modwright preamp with upgraded Nuforce class D monoblocks with the Thiel PCSs.  Great combo with them and it's a very natural sound.   I pieced this system together a while ago and it'... 
Denafrips Pontus 2 Price increases
they are probably also taking advantage of the positive PR they have had over the last 18 months or so too.  Gotta strike while the iron is hot..

jumping back on this thread as an original owner of Amberwood PCSs...they never cease to amaze me and I'm currently running them in a nearfield setup.   I look forward to hanging out with everyone here :)  
what amplification are you running with your Dynaudio Heritage Specials?
I've been running a Coda integrated for the last 18 months or so, and it's a great combo.  Coda has had a price increase recently, so new will be out of the $5k range but if you can find one used you wont be disappointed.    
Dynaudio 20XD amp module failure
would Dynaudio sell you the part directly?  If the dealer was marking it up this might help reduce the cost.   As you said, I would also be wary of spending more than 1/2 the cost to get it repaired!
