| Review: EXACTPOWER EP15A Tweak For several years, the display on my EP-15A has been flashing between 120 volts RMS and "under voltage". Nonetheless, it remains putting out 117 volts and is unfailingly quiet. Am I just lucky? | |
| HDMI absence jriggy, you bring up an interesting point, namely, is the data flow superior among the various means it can travel from A to B -- HDMI, I2S, coaxial, AES/EBU, or TOSLink? | |
| Amp and Processor For the past 15 years, I have been using a Theta Casablanca preamp/processor that I've continually upgraded (now as an IV version) for both watching movies and listening to music. I, and my audiophile friends, find its performance in my AV system... | |
| Krell iBias Amp Dependability: An Informal Survey Dear 643,Given that I am considering the purchase of a Krell Trio 300 XD amplifier, I am most interested in hearing how your problem was resolved.Thank you!Best regards,Jonathan | |
| How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing! Recently, I faced the same dilemma. I have a very good system. However, it is in my nature to always seek "better", even though by now I have taken mine beyond what most people on this forum have proposed as modest to major potential improvements... | |
| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. I am currently using a Theta Casablanca IV preamp/processor and a Lumin T2 along with Krell Class A power amps and Revel Ultima Studios. Cabling is Wireworld and Kimber for interconnects and Transparent Audio for speakers. Power conditioning is ... | |
| Reasonable high end interconnects: without breaking the bank I believe price has to be considered in terms of value received for money spent. In that context, I recommend the Venom series of Shunyata’s cables and cords. While not inexpensive, they aren’t “bank breakers”, either. I have yet to be less than... | |

| What’s your vote for the most ridiculous, overpriced, and useless tweak? Before moving on to the best, let me add my two cents about the worst. Without a doubt, for me nothing comes close to the original Tice power conditioner (don't recall very well anymore, but it was some sort of frozen clock radio -- possibly). I... | |
| Active Subwoofer Recommendations I use two subs — left and right — powered 8” Velodynes. The bass is utterly awesome. It is almost as if the room shakes. 😁 | |
| Audio Doctor goes to Axpona observations so far I found two rooms at AXPONA 2019 to be my personal standouts this year. The first demo'd Rockport Cygnus speakers driven by all CH Precision electronics and an Auralic Aries streamer; "Life" by Ludovico Einaudi was played. This recording was my ... | |
| Best HT speaker system I can only speak from experience, having had systems that were first B&W, next Dunlavy and now Revel Ultima. My current system consists of the Revel Studios (as the main left-right speakers), the Voice (as the center speaker), the Embraces (fo... | |
| Revel Salon/Studio Owners What setup do you use? Besides my Studios, I also have the Voice w/ aluminum pedestal, two Embraces, and two B-15s. Driving them are a Krell 200C and a Krell KAV-250a/3. My source components include the Proceed PAV/PDSD combo preamp/decoder (which is old, and I am waiti... | |
| What amps do you use with your Revel Salons/Studio I use a Krell 200C and am most pleased. Perhaps another amp might prove superior, but I and my friends find its sound remarkable. | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE I will make this brief! After owning two excellent speaker systems previously--Acoustat 2+2S and Dunlavy SC-IV, I bought the Revel Studio. For me, at least, the Studios are the ones, period. Perhaps I am fortunate having the combination of electro... |
