Which Power Cord are you using with Parasound A21?
I use a PS Audio power cord. 
Levinson 352H, or Bryston 4BSST, or...
I had a Peachtree 220 Class D amp and I agree with your description of "bit brash at times." I changed to a Parasound A21 and now my speakers sound more controlled and natural. Although I haven't heard every class D amplifier, I have heard similar... 
Revel F208s vs Cremona M vs B&W 803/804 D
BruceHow would you describe the sound of the signature 8s? I'm looking to replace my F208s with something below 10K. I'm looking for a neutral speaker that has good imaging and depth. 
Blade vs S5 vs Avior vs Hansen's Prince E's
I've listened to the S5s and Aviors. My preference between the two is the S5s. I find the S5s more neutral and dynamic. They were in a different system, so it could have been the context of the system. I would look into Revel Studio 2s and/or Reve... 
Pass XA 30.5 with Revel F 208 ?
Fin1bxn,I went from F52s to F208s. I have them in the same room, with the same equipment. This is a very subjective hobby, but to my ears to say the F52s are better is crazy; different yes, but better?! The F52s are more of a point source. The F20... 
What is going on
Some on Audiogon are listing prices that aren't true. A Parasound A-21 with a list price of $2500 new, when the actual price new is $2300(April 1st it will increase to $2500). I have always sold equipment at a great price and don't understand the ... 
Pass XA 30.5 with Revel F 208 ?
Kartikeyp,I currently have F208s and submit they are a super great value. I just ordered a Parasound Halo A-21 to drive them. 
Revel F208s upgrade from Silverline Sonatina IIIs?
I've owned many, many speakers; however I've never heard the Silverline Sonatina IIIs. I currently own F208s, after owning Wilson Audio Sashas. I don't want to get into a debate over better or worst, but I will say that I find the Revel F208s to b...

Bruce,I will look into the Paradigms. Funny thing is I may just add a Paradigm Signature sub 1 and call it a day.

I'm trying to find a dealer that has F208s and Studio 2s. I would like to hear how they compare to each other. I'm 100% sure I will get either the F208s or Studio 2s, unless I get a super deal on Salon 2s.

Egrady,I've owned many, many speakers to include Sophia 2s, 3s, and Sashas. In the context of the system I had the Sasha's in they were forward. As a matter of fact I've listened to many speakers over the years and Revels seem to have the right mi... 
Revel Speakers
Prior to the F52s I had Wilson Sashas. I thought I wanted to get away from music and sold my entire system. After a couple of months I missed it and decided to purchase modest gear that included the Revel F52s. To my surprise my current system has... 
Revel Speakers
I've talked to a couple people that prefer F52s over F208s. It's my understanding that the F208s are a little more detailed, but the soundstage isn't as good...I'm trying to find a dealer close enough to me to let my own ears decide. 
Revel Speakers
Chrissain,Thanks for your response. I like the F-52 because of their warmth and they provide enough detail without being bright or forward. Do you think the Ultima series is more forward? I'm really thinking about just going to Salon 2s. 
How much does your system retail for?
Old system over 30K, current system under 15K, the fact that I enjoy music on my current system is priceless.
