Revel M20 vs.B W 805 vs.Dynaudio 1.3SE

Just to thump my chest I have speaker which for the right LISTENER betters the three.I just got a pair of Ehodin Model 17's.Horn loaded tweeters with highs,mids,imaging,soundstage
and evreything the others got except the Bass.You can run 'em on most tubes but they will take power if you throw it at 'em.I will probably keep 'em even if I go back to a large floor monitor as they can be stuck close to a rear wall and still sound good thus are a great second room second system speaker.Heard 'em by chance while in FLA and got a $2600 list pair here for $900.They are hard to find but worth a listen.

Dynaudio 1.3 SE's are definitely not for home theater. I would only consider them for a music-only system with good electronics. I choose them over the BMW 80whatevers and the Revel whatevers ( in my price range ). But for home theater I would have choosen either of the other mentions.

Mcne! With all due respect, what the heck are you talking about?? Tell us why a good music speaker is bad for home theater. I can not wait to read your reply!

I know the three speakers in question intimately. They are all quite different sounding, and each has its own virtues. I think the baby Dyn's are the best of the three.
The 805 LOOKS the best but has basically NO bass, going from memory, it is rated to about 56Hz which coupled with the metal tweeter makes it a very clean sounding, fast, punchy speaker, with great focus and precise detail. The Revel M20 is a bit dry, crisp, yet seductive. The M20 looks lame and I don't like the tweeter adjustment at all. The Dynaudio has a little smearing going on in the lower frequency ranges which is to be expected since this little speaker produces impressive bass output -- rated at 37Hz.

Anyother two/way to consider would be the ProAc 1SC which my friend is a GREAT little speaker! You have to hear it to believe it.

Comchenry, just out of curiousity, you felt the PtoAc 2.5's overwhelmed your 13x26x14 room? I would think that is a pretty large room and fine for the 2.5's. Just curious.

comchenry the components upstream are an lp12 with benz glider cartridge a wadia 6 cd player and conrad johnson premier 8's with a cj pv11 preamp
