Balanced Power Conditioner, need suggestions...
Check out equi=tech. Great balanced power systems. I am wary of conditions. 
Revel Studio Discussion- Everything Studio Here
Thanks for the input Rzemkoski. I did contact Revel and I believe I have resolved the problem. Sending them back is about as desirable as ripping my nails off. 
Revel Studio Discussion- Everything Studio Here
Hi all. I am a studio owner and my right speaker just died. I love them and am hopeful it is a simple rather than box it up and send it back issue. Has anyone encountered this before? If so what was the fix. Obviously my first thought is "fuse", b... 
Tube Monoblocks for Revel Studis
Power isn't really the issue. I thought it was but to some extent it is the dynamic quality of the sound produced by the amps. There are several low power rated tubes which can fill the bill here. In the case of my selection the power is not high ... 
Tube Monoblocks for Revel Studis
I went with Harmonic Precision HP mono amps. Not tube but incredibly efficient with tube like sound. Incredibly due to the efficiency these amps run very cool and are low wpc, which superficially turned me off in building a new main system. I was ... 
Nordost Blue Heaven to SPM Reference
If your taste is in to Nordost the difference is significant. The spm is great, a huge leap over blue heaven. Actually I heard a difference from blue heaven to red dawn. Its a taste thing. I have used nordost and still have a system with it, but h... 
Review: Sistrum Mini-Minitor Platform Support-SMM 1 Stand
I've got the sistrum racks and that is the way to go for the gear. 
Revel Studios- amplfier suggestions please
I don't have any problem with brystons. I think they have very similar features as proceed which pair quite well with the studios. I think either one of these would work well. I have heard the Brystons and initially hooked my studios to the HPA2 w... 
Revel Studios- amplfier suggestions please
Tubes are good, but I ended up with an interesting alternative harmonic precision. These are 110 wpc mono amps that are over 97% efficient. Incredible sound with my Revels. Very tubelike, but with advantages of solid state. Check out audiopoints.c... 
Inwall Speaker to match Revel Performa M20 & C30
If you need them now then I would look at either the B&Ws or Sonance since Revels tend to be closer in sonic character to the B&Ws. I am actually running a system with high end sonances for surrounds matched with revel M20 c30 mains in a d... 
THX vs. DTS
THX isn't really the issue. The issue is DTS or DD encoding. Anything preceding THX will not use these encoding schemes and if your spending any money on a home theater system you are wasting your time with such a piece of equipment. The sound dyn... 
Not happy with Krell SACD
You could run a radio signal through at low level and not put unecessary mileage on the transport. Also I leave my main amps on all the time. If they are not in an enclosed area or have good ventilation. This really works for me. 
Inwall Speaker to match Revel Performa M20 & C30
Look at the Revel website. They are coming out with compatible inwalls. 
Warm sounding cables - non fatiguing
Sonoran Plateau are outstanding. Best bang for the buck. Very neutral but warm. Very different from Nordost. 
THX vs. DTS
No offense to anyone but this thread doesn't seem to be really on point. No decent surround processor today is without THX. If one is looking for two channel it is irrelevant, but the point of present equipment is to play DVDs as movies or possibl...
