      Hi,

      I think the Revel Studio and Salon are some of the best. I'm sure others are just as good or better, but none I've been around. They are so detailed and clear. Some of the Thiels are very good, but I think the Revels are better in the bass area compared with Thiels. I know a guy who owned Revels for three years, then "traded" up to the Watt puppy 7. He swears the Revels blow them away. I have no experence with Wilson, so I can't really say much about them.

      I have the Studio in gloss black/silver. I don't have all of my equipment yet. I have the Classe CP-500. and hoping to get the CAM-400 and CDP- 202. I always heard Revels with Levinson or Lexicon, which sounded good, but I don't really care for either of these brands. Their very good, but I like the looks of Classe.

      I'm not sure if I helped you with your question. The Revels are outstanding speakers. I don't think they have many rivals in their price range or many beyond their price range. Just because somthing cost three times as much, doesn't mean it sounds any better.

        I own a pair of Revel studios and have used them with a lot of different amps w\great results. Currently they are being driven by McIntosh 1201's. This is not a combination that you see every day but nevertheless it is excellent. :T

        The only advice I can give is to use a high current amp. The Revels high damping factor and low sensitivity need the power to sing. My current DIY project is to build a replacement to the Revel's. Who knows they may be for sale in the future...... :B

          Got the Studios, now what.
          by DelRay
          OK, I have really been doing my homework in the last few months. Listening and Reading about different speakers. Sorting out the ones I like from the others. Well I pulled the trigger on a pair of used Revel Ultima Studios.I wanted something that wouldn't overpower my 14X19X7.5 room. Although they will...

          Which would you keep B&W 802D or Revel?
          by krellfan
          I am having a very difficult time deciding which speakers to keep. I have two sets of speakers:

          805S

          Revel
          Ultima Studio
          Voice
          Embrace

          I have both sets in the same in the same room and I have been...

          What 5.1 speakers for <$13K
          by jazznsoccer
          For a budget of around $13,000 I'm looking for a good set of 5.1 speakers - mostly for audio but also fill in for HT use.

          I have auditioned The B&W 802s and feel they are worth the upgrade over the 803s. I also compared the 802s to Thiels and preferred the B&W. Likewise preferred...
