KEF versus Revel. Save me money ASR

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

Revels, KEFs, nor Perlistens S7t will not fill this room if they need to operate from 6m distance at 105dB. Not sure where the 6m came from just picked it up. Furthermore, watching 130" screen from 6m is also not going to provide immersion. That would be more of 200" screen from 6 m, but could involve additional cost in that size.

I understand that people have different views, so I will just fade away from this thread as already voiced my concerns that are supported with experience in similar XXXLLL projects. Last thing is that these are what are considered good Revel prices, but that is in UK. EU occasionally also has prices like these but not no on the whole lineup.

Wish the OP best of luck as this is exciting but clearly overstretched project.

I get it thank you. The seating distance will be determined by THX standards. For now though it’s just about speakers. Thanks for the input.

I would go with the Revels, but the price you show is almost twice as high as I paid. In a room that size, I would recommend the F328Be Fronts as the 4" higher tweeter is really nice for big rooms. If you are not in a hurry and can wait for the next sale you should be able to get this order discounted to the $23,000 to $25,000 range. Any dealer would love to close this order. Make them bid for it.

My Revel Ideal
Revel F328Be - Fronts - $11,500
Revel C426Be - Center - $2,000
Revel F226Be - Surrounds - $4,400
Revel F228Be - Rear - $6,000
Total = $23,900

Happy hunting!

This is interesting why F228Be for the rear and “lower” f226Be for surrounds. The more I can learn the better.

Got a good deal and went with Revel f228Be all the way around.

Now looking at subwoofers
