My new B Stock speakers
Thanks for sharing your experience with the Revels.  Interesting that you mentioned B stock speakers.  One of mine is B stock.  There is a slight darker spot on the bottom of one speaker that you have to really look for to notice.  Except for that... 
Does anyone have any experience with Revel M126Be speakers?
Thanks for sharing.  Sorry to hear about being in a funk. Hope you’re talking with someone. Life’s too short to not feel good. Please take of yourself.  
Gustard R26 vs hi end streamer
Responding to the original post.  I can weigh in on the 2nd question.  I would go with a separate streamer.  I started with integrated like many others and have moved to separates in all my equipment over time.  Bought a used Innuos Zen Mk3 from a...

I ordered the Vanilla Fudge box set after seeing Phil Aston’s review.  Glad to see others are enjoying it too.  It’s coming from Australia so it’s taking a while.  Looking forward to playing all 9 CDs so it will be playing on my system as soon as ...

Great.  How are they working out for you?    
Does anyone have any experience with Revel M126Be speakers?
Just saw this post.  Did you end up buying the Revels or something else?  I have a pair and they sound excellent.  The beryllium tweeter is the best I’ve heard in my listening room.  Surprisingly good mid bass too.  I’m running within a pair of su... 
Reliability - what’s your experience been?
Amp died in powered speaker.  AVR on/off switch went bad.  Speakers needed to be refoamed but were so old and inexpensive I didn’t bother.  That’s it over the years.  Haven’t been able to find anyone that will repair the speaker amp.  I won’t buy ...

Veritas Cables a new brand that I found
Thanks the info on different small cable manufacturers. I suggest checking out the cables from Pine Tree Audio. A small manufacturer in Fitchburg, MA. They make reasonably priced cables with a choice of cool colors and lengths. They sell their ite... 
Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say?
If my friend was happy with their system I would be happy for them.  It’s all about loving and enjoying the music.  I’ve given people advice on different equipment over the years.  Sometimes it’s for very expensive components and sometimes for a B...

Dire Straits all day long.  Brothers in Arms is playing whenever I setup new equipment.  Steve Wilson Tull and Yes remixes are excellent.    
Sub suggestions please
I can recommend the SVS. You can buy and try for 45 days and return them for a full refund if you’re not satisfied. Their customer service is excellent. You can get on the phone with someone that will walk you through your setup and answer questio... 
Pop album that has stood the test of time
A lot of great albums. Lately I’ve been playing The Cure. Probably because they finally came out with a new album after 18 years. They must of been following the Guns and Roses strategy. Anyway, I think Disintegration has held up very well. Fascin...
