Thinking of Kef Blade 2 to replace Revel Salon 2
@audiotroy The two speakers sound very similar, the Blade 1 is the bigger of the two and has a bigger overall image and more deep bass. That's interesting, consider the Blade 2s are basically -3db at everything below 50hz, and zero a 20hz, while t...

JL Fathom repair
dweller - the way the sub is made you can't just pull the driver out. (it's not your standard 4 screws in the front of the driver plate kind of build). At least that's what Randy Wagner at JL told me.to scottfields: seriously consider sending it i... 
My JL Audio sub is dead. What exactly happened?
I am having a few minor issues (intermittent popping noise at high volumes and a scratchy/intermittent master volume / gain knob on the front panel. I called JL and they informed me they have a repair service where you ship the sub to them, they w... 
Polk LSI25 Sub woofer amp Problem...Help!!
I owned LSi25s for + years and probably replaced or had repaired, between the 2 speakers, the amps 5 different times.I always dealt with Polk directly, but I think they are just a crappy sub amp. It's too bad because I really liked the look and so... 
No sound from tweeters - is it the tweeters or crossover at fault?
switch the tweeters between the speakers - still no sound then it's the crossover. If you get sound using the other tweeter, then it's the original tweeter that is bad. (or use a cheapo tweeter from Fry's or something if you don't want to risk you... 
krell foundation 4k vs. classe sigma ssp mkii
I have the Krell 4k and think it's pretty amazing. I haven't encountered a source that it couldn't decode. The sound quality, especially when running two channel stereo, is superb.I haven't compared the Krell to the Classe, but looking at pictures... 
JL Audio F110 Fathom pops...
Thanks for all the responses. I finally managed to get JL Audio support on the phone and spoke with Randy Wagner whom I can not recommend enough. He gave me some very detailed instructions about setup and calibration that I am going to run through... 
Infinity IRS Beta Room Requirements
I love those old school Infinitys!I think I was maybe 19 or 20 and wandered into a hi-fi shop that had a pair of the Betas set up. They played Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer" and it floored me. I had never heard music reproduced like that before.

McIntosh Mx151 vs. Krell Foundation vs Arcam AV 860
I have a Krell Foundation 4k UHD and I can say that the sound quality is very impressive. Stereo playback is just absolutely top notch. It also has tons of inputs, outputs, and configuration settings.I will say - I am unhappy with the On Screen Di...

Revel F206s being powered by a Mark Levinson No. 432, plus a JL Fathom 110 sub.I have a small Rotel RMB-1085 5x100 amp that I power the surrounds with. 
center channel speakers - Martin Logan vs Definitive Technology?
Hi.Yes, my processor (a Krell Foundation 4k UHD) - does have that feature, but due to the units almost impossible to understand and navigate UI I could not figure out how to save that setting. (I could go on for pages about that one...)I have foun... 
center channel speakers - Martin Logan vs Definitive Technology?
yeah, "idiot" wasn't fair. I can do better than that.It sucks because the cabinet works out in every way, is really stylish (for me) and matches everything around it perfectly. Fits all my gear no problem...except the Center Channel spaceIt was wh...
