Short answer: the Revel F328Be if sound quality matters most, the Polk Audio XT60 if price matters most. The Revel F328Be ranks #9 of 228 floorstanding speakers, rated 4.7/5, at $19,359.90. The Polk Audio XT60 ranks #178, rated 3.5/5, at $458, $18,901.90 cheaper.
The Polk Audio XT60 is the deeper-bass option. A budget tower with a woofer and two passive radiators that gives surprisingly deep bass for the price. Its bass reaches about 43.9Hz before falling 3dB, against 74Hz for the Revel F328Be. The catch: Bass alignment Q (lfq 0.96) is an unusually high, underdamped figure for a tower speaker, consistent with owner reports of a slightly loose, boomy low end at higher volumes.
The Revel F328Be is the more accurate pick. Extremely accurate floorstanding speakers, with a beryllium tweeter, wide even coverage and very low distortion at loud volume. Its measured preference score, a predictor of how neutral it sounds, is 6.40 against 5.19 for the Polk Audio XT60. The catch: Vertical directivity is asymmetric: the reviewer recommends staying between -20 and +40 degrees relative to the tweeter axis, reflecting the driver layout of this three-way tower.
Buy the Polk Audio XT60 if the price matters more than sound quality. Buy the Revel F328Be if sound quality matters more than the price.
