In the early 2000's , I owned and absolutely loved a pair of Revel Salon 1 speakers. At that time, I drove the Salon 1's to phenomenal effect, and I mean "PHENOMENAL" effect, with a Classe CA401 stereo amplifier. So naturally, I would highly recommend a pair of Classe Audio mono-block amplifiers. I currently owns a pair of Revel Salon 2 speakers, which I will ride off into the sunset with. Nowadays, my audio system is set-up in a not so large room, so I simplified and downsized my audio system. Currently, I drive my Salon 2's with a Hegel H590 integrated amp, which is so incredible, I don't miss the big separates one bit. Happy listening
Mono blocks for Revel Salon 1’s recommendation?
I have been looking to upgrade my Krell KMA 160 mono blocks. I have a Krell KRC -HR and an Oppo Modwright player. I want to stay with mono blocks and thought I would stay in the late 90’s to 2010 range with something class A…but with all the new smaller amps out there etc, just wondering if I am missing something. Thought was I needed a high watt/high current mono to get the best out of the Revel’s but not sure looking at some of the newer stuff. Budget is 10k. Thanks in advance. I listen to mostly blues and rock.
