| Suggestions for amping a pair of Revel Studio2s Enjoy! The Sophias are a bit more efficient than the Studio 2s so probably a better fit for you. Haven't heard the Sophias but really liked the Sashas when I was auditioning speakers, and might have gone for them instead of the Salon 2s but for my... | |
| Thoughts on Legacy Whisper Speakers Bored much? This thread is over 9 years old. | |
| Revel Salon2/Studio2/Voice2 amplification??? Focusing solely on your 2-channel needs vis-a-vis your Salon 2s, for these speakers in a room that size you need big solid-state power. My 310 wpc into 8 ohms Plinius SB-301 fills my 5600 s.f. room nicely but I would suggest that amount of power a... | |
| Suggestions for amping a pair of Revel Studio2s "My room is 13 feet wide-is that wide enough for a studio 2 or 1? 30 ft length, open to hallway and 8 foot ceiling. also considering sophia 2 or watt pupp 7"Plenty wide for all three speakers you mention, as well as Revel Salon 1s or 2s."If you wa... | |
| How many still listen to CD's daily. Several daily. | |
| Rogue M-180 vs BAT vk150se Sorry about the double post! | |
| Rogue M-180 vs BAT vk150se As Chrissain suggests, Salon 2s are power hogs. I wouldn't use anything less than 300 wpc into 8 ohms to drive them in any room larger than say 2500 s.f. There are plenty of SS amps that can provide the sonic qualities you're looking for and may b... | |
| Rogue M-180 vs BAT vk150se What size is your room? Salon 2s are power hogs and neither of the amps you're asking about would drive mine effectively in my room of approx. 5,600 s.f., for example.As Chrissain says, these speakers need high current to shine and to control all ... | |
| Wilson Sasha vs. older Watt Puppies I found the Sashas to be an excellent speaker when I auditioned them, and might well have bought them but for my very lively room. | |
| McCormack DNA500 for Revel Salon 2? vs Lev/Mac? I personally wasn't crazy about the ML 532H with the Salon 2s when I heard them together, even though both are Harman products and you'd think there'd be some synergy. The combo was clean and clear but seemed way too polite on dynamic recordings. ... | |
| C'mon name that amp ...please? You're already used to having a lot of power, so I second Sufentanil's call for big brawny amps like the Krell 600 watters or the Plinius SA 250 - the small and expensive Pass Class xa series amps are beautiful in smaller applications but just are... | |
| Will Revel Studio2s fit in a 15'x18'x9' room? I have the Salon 2s in a 28X16 room with a 15' vaulted ceiling and they perform very well in that space, so I'd imagine the Studio 2s would work well in yours. | |
| Which cost more: your system or your car? Paid more out of pocket for new car (BMW X3 for $40k) in 2005, but stereo gear lists for around $50K new even though I bought lightly used and demo stuff for the most part. | |
| Amp for n802 diamond I have the Plinius SB-301 driving Revel Salon 2s. It is a fast, powerful, clean amplifier with great dynamics, stereo imaging ability and bass control and weight. I mostly listen to rock but do enjoy an occasional orchestral piece by Tchaikovsky, ... | |
| HELP B&W 802D or Revel Ultima Salon2 "I wish I had a better descriptive vocabulary in the context of describing sound. Sometimes I feel like a person who like fine wine but who cannot express it. This Chardonnay has the aromas of toasted oak and hints of vanilla. Uh what? It tastes... |
