Hello all here, sorry I haven't posted much lately... I've been busy for sure... lots of life changes...
Thanks to a good friend, I got a wonderful opportunity to buy a pair of these speakers to audition in my home. Ever since I first heard them, I wanted to hear them in my system... but I was 'on the fence' about buying... but it finally happened!
I listened, changed around position, cables, tubes, etc... and in the end, I decided to keep my old Piega's... Mostly for the value loss I'd get on the Piega's... It wasn't a clear-cut decision by any means.
If you want a speaker that sounds big, with a big soundstage and disappears, this is it. They don't require much power either. My 400wpc MC402 is way overkill. They could suffice with 100-150 watts of clean power easily.
This review is wordy but I think it's a pretty accurate description of what I heard and enjoyed:
http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/revel2/1.htmlI'll add that these are PRAT monsters. I could never stop tapping my toe while listening. There is a consistent top-to-bottom presentation from these speakers that is truly special. I wish I could keep them.
But... we have baby #2 on the way!... WHAT!? So, priorities are shifting (yet again)... and I'm getting ready for that big event... so, the sound room situation needs to get stable... and soon.
I'm asking $3,300 for the pair. They listed at 5,k in 2014 but I don't know current list price. They are like new, 10 on the Audiogon scale. They were bought and setup once. I'm going to clean off the finger prints and put them back in the boxes in their immaculate condition.
Here's a chance to own something truly special, designed by a legend, Kevin Voecks. At my asking price, I'm very willing to help with delivery.
Thanks,
Carl
