Vandersteen 2ce Sig II My combination of the Rogue Cronus (non-Magnum) and Vandersteen 1C's was sublime ..... a beautiful musical presentation which I enjoyed for many years. I have since upgraded my speakers to the Revel F-12's which has added even more to my enjoyment... | |

The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Thanks Phaelon........ something special indeed. | |
The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Many compliments on my system over the years, with a very common one being friends who want to "just listen for a few minutes," but wind up staying for hours and saying "can I hear just one more song ?" But probably the most meaningful compliment ... | |

Friday Night in San Francisco Well, I just added it to an Amazon order.... $6.99 for the CD. I bought it along with Nils Lofgren "Acoustic Live" and John Abercrombie "Within A Song." These should be three great albums to listen to on the upcoming cool Autumn evenings in upstat... | |
Revel F12's ---- A very happy upgrade for me. Hi Foster...... Yes indeed. I am enjoying listening to CD's as much as I am enjoying listening to LP's. You're asking a very good question. With the Vandersteens, I was listening to vinyl a lot more than digital. With the new Revels, my Rotel CD d... | |
Revel F12's ---- A very happy upgrade for me. I agree with you Dave.....These new Revels are really impressing me. I've been playing a very wide variety of music, and everything that I'm throwing at these speakers is sounding very, very good. Small ensemble jazz, classic rock and roll, blues,... | |

Revel Salon 2 Amplification Questions Totally off topic, but somewhat related......I'm driving my Revel F-12's with a Rogue Audio Cronus integrated amplifier, and the synergy is sublime. In my room, with my system, and to my ears, the Revel -- Rogue combination is extra special. | |
What is approx. percentage of your total Sometimes I'll close my eyes and run a finger across a shelf of LP's or CD's, and randomly stop. Then I'll play that particular album, and, quite often, say to my self...."....Self, that was great. I forgot I even had that album, and I just really... | |
Revel F12's ---- A very happy upgrade for me. Phasecorrect.......you are correct ! The defining characteristics of both the Vandy 1C's and Revel F-12's are clearly apparent within the context of my system. I tried to describe these characteristic differences above in my opening thread, and I ... |
