    Sold Out - Revel Salon2 New Stock w/ full warranty $12k plus shipping

    Not very scientific I'm afraid, but what I have to say is HOLY SHIT! What clarity, what ease. I knew these speakers had more in them! :) The Salons really seem to like the new amps.

    Sold Out - Revel Salon2 New Stock w/ full warranty $12k plus shipping

    Damn! I still get blown away by thinking about you getting them, and then due to the tinnitus deal deciding to let them go. I have evolution in my system. When I got the Salons, I simply disconnected the previous speakers and shoved them back to the wall, and the Salons took there place pretty...

    Van Alstine audio

    I'm in the "West" of the US. Las Vegas, NV. I really wish I lived closer to Seattle so I could drop an amp off for testing. I literally just pulled an AVA Vision SET 400 out of my system to make space for monoblocks. For now it will not be used. And wouldn't need a time limit on how long it...

    balanced, differential output vs simply a balanced output ( from a preamp )

    Well, that is all I need to know, then. I think it was all the talk about differential that threw me. Thank you. :)

    balanced, differential output vs simply a balanced output ( from a preamp )

    OK, but these amps only have the one input jack, an XLR... I'm just trying to ascertain whether my Bryston will work fine with these amps, with no degradation in SQ. I'm mighty fond of it

    Current stuff only, huh? :) Wondering how far off the mark my first outboard DAC is, an Audio Alchemy DDE v1.0

    balanced, differential output vs simply a balanced output ( from a preamp )

    I am a simple layperson with no real knowledge of electronic circuitry. There is a power amp I'm interested in that has a differential XLR input jack. That is it's only input. In a discussion in a forum about these amps and preamps that are suitable for them, a company rep, in trying to clear...

    Sold Out - Revel Salon2 New Stock w/ full warranty $12k plus shipping

    My friend helped me get them in, then I unpacked one. Had to call him to help me unpack the second one. And then, you know it. I pushed the old speakers backwards and hooked up the Revels. Ended up getting to bed five hours later ( no discipline! jeez!! ) and leaving on my trip at 7 PM, instead...

    Sold Out - Revel Salon2 New Stock w/ full warranty $12k plus shipping

    I was curious about that, too. And believe I heard something along the lines of "what, we've got coming up will be blah,blah, blaf" ( Substitute whatever stunning superlative you want ). I know this, I wouldn't be able to afford it; hell, I could barely afford the Salon2(s), but reached for the...

    So, the Teak oil and Guardsmam are safe? As well as. perhaps, Howard's?

    What to use?

    I want to "spiff up" some nice 801 Series 80's. They are in pretty good shape considering they were made in '79. Serial #s 599 and 600. I do not believe they have ever been treated with anything. I am considering selling them. The crossovers were revitalized and caps in them upgraded a few years...

    What to use?

    Looking to bring out the beauty and deep color of some old speakers I have. I have previously only dusted with a rag or towel. What waxes, polishes or solutions do people use? I have no experience with wood finishes or veneers. Thanks, Scott

    801 Repair Guidance Thread

    I have a set of these and love them. The crossovers were rebuilt by the previous owner. My serial #s are 599 and 600 so these babies are friggin' old. This is just a quote so don't shoot me, but this guy who had bought a set of much more modern 802D's, said of the newly refreshed 801's, after...

    Sold Out - Revel Salon2 New Stock w/ full warranty $12k plus shipping

    You are in Las Vegas? Me too. I'm on the west side of the strip/I-15. What was the shipping from VA to Vegas? And the cost. Was it 12,000, plus 8.35% ( or is it 8.375 now? ) And, one more question. Why is the dealer doing this? In your last post you mentioned a demo ( black ); is he...
