Preamp under $2,000 used
4hannons, When I said reviewed I simply meant I've read about, read reviews on those and a few others. I'm not looking to throw another $5-10,000 in my system , it sounds very good with the Anthem as preamp, OPPO Bd105 as music player and aforemen... 
Preamp under $2,000 used
Thanks for the replies, I am more interested in a sold state, but maybe I should be open to tubes. I don't know how reliable and how long they go before needing service or new tubes.  
Anyone have issues with Revel Performa speakers
Jahatl513, Since I've had a new tweeter replaced by Revel and went with the Mark Levinson 532h I have no issues with speakers. They sound fantastic and the Levinson amp is phenomenal sounding, the whole system is. You will hear things and level an... 
Moving on from Parasound A21 (maybe?)
Professor svsu have you considered Mark Levinson, there are a couple 532H available on here for sale at good prices. I bought mine on here to pair with my Revel F206s and couldn't be happier. Even if I upgrade speakers I have an amp that is more t... 
Which one is the best INTEGRATED!!
Why no mention of Mark Levinson? I have 532h amp and it is Class A rated, I love it as it sounds very good and buttery smooth vocals.  I have read and talked to people that think their Integrated amps are excellent, very highly rated.  
high-efficiency loudspeakers
Paradigm are very efficient at 93-94 sensitivity. Not as high as Klipsch but way better sounding, they are a great speaker, sound great and like playing loud.  
Plug amp and other gear into separate outlets ?
Williewonka, I have a PS Audio medical grade outlet with Audioquest power cord on amp and Shunyata Venom3 on receiver, so upgraded power cords though not the top range cords. I have Furman power conditioner for all except the amp as I've been told... 
Plug amp and other gear into separate outlets ?
I have a separate outlet run from my box dedicated for the amp and had rest on another, switched over and don't think I can tell a difference. I am running a pretty powerful amp, Mark Levinson 532h at 300 watts per channel and do like to play loud... 
What’s a good preamp to run with Krell FPB 350m monos that has 2 pairs of balanced outs
What's a great preamp that has bass management for a sub 2.1 config ?? Looking to match with Mark Levinson 532h and Revel F206s running Anthem MRX510 now as preamp.  
KEF, ProAc, Monitor Audio and others
I have Revels Performas and they are very good, their Studio line are excellent in that range, but honestly I listened to the KEF Reference 5 at same dealer and if I had the money that's what I'd buy, they sounded incredible even at very high volu... 
Room acoustics
To answer the original question without having to use in room measurements yes acoustic treatments on side walls for early reflections, in corners and on ceilings for slap echo and also diffusers on back wall do make a huge improvement for reducin... 
Speaker Placement - When it's perfect!
I can honestly say that a quarter inch or half inch off on toe in does make a difference. The other huge improvement that is one of the cheapest is using acoustic treatments for corners,  walls for reflections and eliminating echo. The biggest cha... 
Searching for the most "accurate" speaker (below 15K)
Vermeer , I've heard the Persona's,  Kef Reference 5, Revel Ultima and Focal. I've also listened to Dynaudio speakers all in your range. I have Revel Performa with Mark Levinson amp. If I had the money for them  I would get the Kef Reference as th... 
what speakers to buy
I have recently heard the Revel Performa F208 with a tube preamp and a solid state amp and they sounded very very good, I purchased to F206s as I have a 12 x14 room and they sound great , very detailed and smooth, not at all forward or bright. I'm... 
Paradigm speakers
4425, After more and more listening I think you are correct, Revel much smoother, more cohesive sound and more life like to actual voicing. I had Paradigm Monitor 11 and for the money they sounded great, seems Prestige is not as cohesive though be...
