Don't mean to make this sound like an ad for my brothers store, but I can add some commentary on some of the previous commentary, and then redeem myself at the end...
I heard the new B&W 803D3 at bro's store and they are fantastic. Much better than the 802 Diamonds. So open and clear in a way that the 802 never was. But $17K yikes they better clean the house for that money. I was so impressed that I rushed to bring my Marashinos in to hear w/ the 803s. It sounded like crap tho because the nice but complicated Classe pre we were using must have been employing some bass management or EQ that we weren't aware of. Confirmed because the nice Classe amp there also sounded like crap in the same way! Only after removing the Maras did we engage the Analog Direct mode and the system sounded right again. Oh well some other day.
The last thing I'd call the Revel F series is too bright. When bro was trying to decide whether to bring Focal or Revel in, one of the sales guys did not care for the Revels as they were very dark vs. the Focals, to his ears. My F206s are certainly not bright, IMO.
Dad has the Salon 2's and is grossly under-sourcing them at his house in a huge living room, using a top-o-the line Marantz AVR. Eeeewww. I tell him he's gotta juice 'em up. Parents, sometimes they just don't listen. Effin sweet speakers, tho the tweeter is a mile high - You'd need a big room.
OK now the redemption - I want Maggies. The 1.7's (not 1.7i's) that I heard at my friends place were amazingly good, and for $2K holy crap what a deal. I do fear what my kitties would do to them though.
