| How to design music room? Unless you are prepared to do a lot of research I would suggest someone like Rives or Rives to give you advice. Stay away from the high end acoustic companies. They are a rip off. Do a search on the threads here and you will find a wealth of good ... | |
| Best spkrs for rock: Dunlavy V-Watt/Puppy-Revel?? The revels are fantastic. However if you are only going to play rock music at high levels, I would agree with others that what you have will do the job. You haven't mentioned any acoustical treatments in your room and I would look at this before g... | |
| What speakers to Buy. Big Room -- Bookcase App. The M20s are fantastic. Get them on audiogon for cheaper and be done with it. Warrenh is correct that they sound better on the stands,but will still be better than the alternative on the bookshelf. | |
| What amps are being used with Revel Studios? The 33h is great with the studios. I also used the HPA2 with them at one time before switching that amp to my embrace surrounds. The HPA was very similar to the ML436. It all depends on your budget and taste. The speakers are fantastic. I used to ... | |
| What amps are being used with Revel Studios? I am using Harmonic Precision. Mark Levinson is the standard. I knew people with Harmonic and it is a unique product I love, but Levinson 436s are probably as good as anything. | |
| Advice on power conditioner Equi-tech or Richard Gray which do very different things are the best way to go. Look up their specs. The others impact the sound in adverse ways. | |
| Need monitors with a BIG sound Revel Ultima Gems or Performa M20s depending on budget.Matched with Revel subs thisis awesome. | |

| What amps do you use with your Revel Salons/Studio Don't overlook ML 333 ect. on the web. These are an excellent match. Pass is excellent as well but with different characteristics. Try to demo or run a search on audiogon for both and check out other comments on these pieces. | |
| HT room new construction - room treatments, etc First to comment on Rives remarks I completely agree with his sentiments. Unfortuately I was unaware of him or I would have called him or someone like him for advice and gladly paid his fee. My rub is not with experts such as rives but companies w... | |
| What amps do you use with your Revel Salons/Studio The best and safest bet is mark levinson. The 436's or if budget is a concern the proceed HPA 2. I have revel studios and use harmonic precision 110 monos, but as happy as I am with them they have unique charateristics which I would suggest demoin... | |
| HT room new construction - room treatments, etc I built a media room and started looking at some of the acoustic companies but was totally turned off by them. Many quoted a high fee just to tell me what they were going to sell me. When I started talking to acoustical engineers I found that most... | |
| Seeking advice on vibration control for a Hydra Go to audiopoints.com. I bought their sistrum racks and they are fanstastic. I won't hype them more you can read their stuff, they work. | |

| Does a Subwoofer give relief to my mains speakers? Subs definitely give relief to the mains on home theater use. Let the subs pick up anything below 80hz. In music mode if you have control lower that to 50 or less. |
