    Yep --

    Should have much tigher mids (like thats possible)

    Uses smaller midbasses, then the slanted cabinet (no standing waves)

    Bass should be absolutely UNREAL with stellar highs... by far

    Best of the best crossover components too

    That was my next question. I could have sworn they looked smaller. Either that or that pair of speak's are immense.

    We'll see what these do to Sparky. If they do what I imagine they will do, then it's on. However, I'm a little skeptical when it comes to a different tweeter. In my experience, better is not always better.

    Let me rephrase.

    "an upgraded tweeter is not always the best choice for what I would like to achieve in terms of accurate reproduction of music." ;)

    Well I chose the Revelator because I was told its just as detailed, but more forgiving if that makes any sense at all -- made sense for me with my musical taste...

    But yeah, I think the Woodmere II uses 5.25" midbasses vs. the 7.25"

    The Woodmere on the other hand uses the 7.25"

    You and those taylos, you love em. I had a pair of speakers I own in Stereophile a while back, good review, except they used the one type of music that I think are their weakest point, and only one type of music. I have nothing against classical music as a genre, but if you are going to do a speaker review, come on, not ALL audiophiles listen to NOTHING but classical. The reviewer liked them anyway, so makes me wonder...
