Sensitive Monitors


Hi guys. I own and love my Revel M20s. Since I moved them in my listening room, they even sound better, but I am more aware, than ever, of their power requirement. Need lots of quality juice. I've got the quality (100 watts per), but am now thinking of going with a monitor that will give me more bang for the size. I've heard the M20s compared against, the Dynaudios, Sonus Fabers, 805s. Anybody out there hear (please only first hand tympanic experience) the JM Labs Micro Utopia? I can get a killer price on the Minis. How 'bout those babies? If you've heard a monitor that is sensitive and equal to the sonics of the M20, please show me the light. If you don't have the, first hand, tympanic experience, do you know of some reliable second hand experiences? Remember, we're talking monitors/stand mounties, here. Thanks again, my fellow audiophools. peace, warren

As much as I love the sound of my Revels they are not the panacea of monitors. I am waiting, patiently, for Harmonic Precision's new speaker, The Caravelle, to come out. Maybe another month. I have my order in for a pair of these babies. In the meantime I'm going to listen, this weekend, to JMlabs Micro Utopias just to have another referent when auditioning these new babies. I was told (from first hand reliable ears) that I should listen to speakers up a notch or two, over the JMlabs Micro, to really have something to compare these Caravelles to. And we're not talking about monitors, here. Floorstanders. It's exciting. I really feel I am on the ground floor of greatness to come. I'll keep you audiophools posted as I always do. peace, warren
