| Revel Speakers Paradigm and Revel share many of the same design goals, and both hit outside their price range. | |
| Revel Speakers As far as the ultima line is concerned, I am around, on a constant basis, speakers that cost far more than the Salon 2s, that are not even close to the Salon 2 in performance. The irony is that for many in this hobby, they listen with their wallet... | |
| Revel Speakers Drubin I was worried too, until I actually heard them. They are better in every way. Not a joke or hyperbole . They are lower in distortion, have better intergration between drivers, more inner definition and clarity, a much better tweeter . Their... | |
| Revel Speakers I also agree with Egrady, revels are some of the most transparent speakers out there, garbage in garbage out, one must partner them with good electronics and proper room treatments and placement. I spent a little time on the AVS revel forum and wa... | |
| Revel Speakers Anyone that says the f208 is not as good as the f52 in the soundstage dept has to either be crazy or actually have not heard them. I have spent literally hundreds of hours over the years listening to f32s and f 52s and I can asure you the new f208... | |
| Rogue M180 or Antique Sound Lab Hurricane DT? Rogue Audio all the way. In the world of overpriced and over hyped gear, Rogue stands out, most other brands would charge at LEAST twice what Rogue does for their products. One of the best deals in all of hi end audio, awesome sounding all America... | |
| Revel Speakers If your funds allow the solon 2 is the best overall speaker I have ever heard. It is better than the studio 2s in the ways that count, more warmth in the mids better bass and midbass punch. Since you are already a revel fan, the Solon 2s will not ... | |
| Revel Speakers the studio 2s are more transparent speaker over all with better soundstaging but not as warm in the mids as the f52. | |
| Primaluna-TungSol KT120s in triode mode I also own the gold lion kt77 tubes, and the kt120 sound way better than those on my speakers btw (revel f32) | |
| Primaluna-TungSol KT120s in triode mode Interesting, I also own m180s, and the kt 120 bested every kt88 I have tried, including the gold lions (which blew up on me by the way ) I am itching to try the kt150s. | |
| teflon tape and rega RB300 arm I could have used pure silicon tape, or 3m 33 electrical tape but did not want to add extra weight, the teflon is much lower in weight than other tapes. | |
| Power cables for ARC Reference 75 And it has a tighter, Better fit than most 15 amp connectors. That is probably the real reason they use the 20 amp on some models. | |
| Power cables for ARC Reference 75 they use the 20 amp IEC connector because they think it sounds better than the 15 amp one. It has nothing to do with power ratings. | |
| Revel Performa 3 I have now heard the f208. To say there are much better speakers out there is laughable. I would put the new Revel up against any speaker under 15,000. I think they are giant killers. | |
| What speakers should I consider around $5000? Please do yourself and ears a huge favor and check out the new revel performa 3 f208 they are simply awesome, I personally don't think they have any real compatition at their price point and they sound better than most speakers at twice the price,... |
