#9 Revel M106 Discontinued eBay
Newer model: the Revel M126Be, ranked lower, rated 4.3/5.
Pros: CEA2034 spinorama shows a fairly even on-axis response with no obvious resonances, and a listening window that sits comfortably above the on-axis curve. Predicted in-room response is called “near ideal” by the reviewer, with a smooth downward slope from bass to treble. Distortion at 96dB SPL/1m stays well controlled through the midrange and treble. Measured bass extension of 60Hz (-3dB), with a measured sensitivity of 86dB.
Cons: Some directivity error and response variation shows up in the crossover region. Horizontal beamwidth of about ±50 degrees is on the narrower side. Vertical directivity requires staying within about ±20 degrees of the reference axis for accurate tonal balance. Minimum impedance dips to 4.6 ohms with several peaks, a moderately demanding load for a compact bookshelf speaker. Discontinued.
How it compares: Just above it: March Audio Sointuva - 3Hz lower bass extension (-3dB). Just below it: KEF R3 Meta - 0.1Hz lower bass extension (-3dB).
