preamp for Revel M22

I run AES DJH preamp and Sixpacs, both with Jensen paper-in-oil capacitors, and am immensely satisfied with the sonics. The little DJH preamp is tube rectified and direct coupled, which I believe makes all the difference in the world!

I have also had good results with SimAudio electronics and my M22's.

Bob, I am running an Acurus 200x3 amp and have an Onkyo 805 receiver. I am looking forward to your reply as to how this will change the frequency response. Thank you for your time.

Jalapenos, thank you for the info, I am doing some research now on the DJH preamp. I guess you prefer the tube more, sounds like a lot of people are.

You've probably realized that the Revels are highly placement sensitive. But once you get them dialed in with the right equipment, they are spectacular speakers. Have you considered an integrated amp? That would be only one piece of gear to swap and less cables...whatever you decide should be a significant improvement over your Onkyo receiver

although not a revel owner, i would conjecture that many preamps would work well with that speaker. it would depend upon your personal preference. i just reviewed a very interesting preamp which may interest you. it is the audio note kits l3 line stage preamp. it retails for $1699. the rason i find it interesting is that it is very uncolored without some of the unwanted qualities, namely frequency response imbalances and an etched presentation.
