Thanks for checking in folks. As you can see, I already had the Revels and wasn't impressed with the combination of the two. There are best choices, I've made many best choices in my system. The revels were't one of them, not with this amp.
Best low budget speakers for a Levinson 383 Integrated amp
Howdy folks!
I bought a Levinson 383 integrated years ago when it came out in 2000. I paired it with a pair of Revels and although it sounded good, not the perfect fit. Sold amp and speakers to sis and moved on. It worked perfect for her. After her recent passing, the amp is coming back home. Just curious what speakers you might suggest pairing it with. Nothing will replace my McIntosh Piega C10LTD combo in the main room but would like to hear it paired with the right speakers. That amp new was $6000 new. 100 watts.
Something on the used market. They don't even need to look pretty just sound perfect. $2000 tops used is plenty. Thanks for your suggestions!

@jond I misunderstood. There was a 35th anniversary of the Harbeth I saw on Ebay. Not familar with the speaker but I'm sure it's good. Great info all around. |
The Revels I paired with the Levinson were the F30’s. It wasn’t necessarily my distaste for the Revels, I thought they were fine. I was disappointed with the fact that I just paid 6 grand for an amp that would clip when i really wanted to rock out. That’s the scoop with the Revels folks. 100 watts of solid state gets gobbled up quick. I have a MC402 McIntosh with 400x2 for my Piegas and I can clip that thing! |
More great suggestions. |
