    Revel Salon2 vs F328Be: Which Speaker is Better?

    I did a shootout between the Revel F328Be and Perlisten S7t on Youtube: The Perlisten is the superior speaker and now that Revel raised their prices, I'd recommend the Perlistens. The Revels are still a good speaker but not compelling at $19k+/pair, IMO.

    AMPED 2400 Rated Power

    We just tested the AMPED 2400 stereo amplifier, which claims to be made in the USA despite using Pascal OEM Class D modules that source parts globally.

    Marantz Link 10n Streaming Hi-Fi Preamp Review

    The 100 watts from the Yamaha HiFi piece is NOT the same 100 watts you get in an AVR so let's be clear on that. The hifi piece doubles down and can drive its rated power all day long with no complaints.

    The SPAM spammers lately

    I'm really glad to hear that. I was right there playing whack a mole with our mods and trying a poop-ton of stuff to fix this problem. Hopefully we keep em out for good.

    When will Audioholics share their thoughts on Dirac ART?

    Unfortunately ART doesn't work well with systems running Fullrange towers. Even though it's been out for over a year, they've never resolved the fixed HPF it places on non subwoofer channels which in my case is detrimental for infrasonic bass frequencies below 20Hz in my system as my main...

    Sorry guys. I added a rule for new users to have to be registered for 5 days before posting but I can't find any setting that states how many replies a new user has to have before starting a new thread. We may have to put a better CAPTCHA.

    Lossless audio on Spotify Premium has finally — FINALLY! — arrived. Spotify describes its new lossless streaming option as “one of the most anticipated features on Spotify,” and that is definitely an understatement. Behind the scenes, Spotify has been toying with offering a lossless option for...

    Best Sounding Demo Rooms at Audio Advice Live 2025?

    JTR did not have a home theater demo room at Audio Advice Live 2025. Just 2.2CH And not w Trinnov. Trinnov partnered w Ascendo Acoustics and I personally didn't care for that demo. The speakers sounded harsh and compressed to me but the bass was pretty solid.
