Revel F36

This would probably be my pick from your choices listed.

Some info to assist;

Revel Concerta2 F36 Floorstanding Speaker Reviewed - HomeTheaterReview

Brent Butterworth reviews the F36 speaker ($2,000/pair) from Revel's Concerta2 line. This tower speaker combines a one-inch aluminum dome tweeter with three 6.5-inch aluminum cone woofers in a 2.5-way design.

The response plot of the F36 could be used to illustrate the ideal dispersion for a loudspeaker. Except for a roughly half-octave-wide dip in the treble, the on-axis plot is almost perfectly flat.

Focal Chora 826

Focal Chora 826 Loudspeaker Lab Report

Lab Report Focal's familiar recipe is to create high sensitivity loudspeakers with the help of low impedance, and the Chora 826 fits that norm. However, we couldn't substantiate its claimed sensitivity of 91.5dB as our pink noise and music results of 89.8dB and 89.5dB (1m for 2.83V input)...

I doubt you'd be unhappy with any of them really, especially if you're using room correction.

Is there a particular reason why you're going for these a bit outdated designs?

I vote for revel. Or you could get active speakers like genelec 8030c. Stage craft international is the dealer in the philippines.
