If you put a good signal to the speaker and do not over drive the unit everything should be fine. Plus most parts are available from other sources. I bought the designer reference and am not looking back.
Hales Revelation 3:Oldie but is it still a Goodie?
I have ocassionally seen a few ads on the 'GON for this speaker..The Hales company is out of business, but the speaker seems to have developed a cult following. So,I need opinion from owners,etc as to how this speaker, the Hales Revelation 3 competes against recent hi-end speakers in the $2200-2500 price range. Also,would it be a mistake to buy a speaker whose company is defunct?? What about service and parts??
