Hegel H90 too small at 60wpc at 8. Or would H160 be more ideal?
Integrated recommendation for Revel F30
Looking for used integrated amp recommendations that would mate well with Revel F30 speakers. Budget is up to $1,500. Cabling is Mogami W3082 and W2539 interconnects. Source is a Theta Miles CD player. I stream using an HRT iStreamer and my iphone/ipad. My room is approx. 12x16.

As an experiment try a solid core copper cable no larger than 20 gauge (I'd try 22 gauge if your speaker cable lengths are 12', or less). This can be purchased as hook-up wire @ many online sites on the the WWW. I've only used Michaell Percy (sp?), but it's readily available @ different venders. Anyway, try something inexpensive as an experiment. Doing so may flesh out the LF's of your setup while retaining the mid/HF's. If it sounds better then look into better solid core cable. Cool speakers that would probably work well in our living room as I generally roam while listening. DeKay |
jsbach1685 OP Being 87dB >50w is good, all amps that are happy all day seeing 4ohms, will be fine with these speakers. Except for tube SE’s, unless they are more than >50w @ 8ohm and have a 4ohm tap which will drag that 8ohm wattage down. https://www.stereophile.com/images/archivesart/revf3001.jpg My suggestion is to look for a Gryphon Diablo 120 https://gryphon-audio.dk/shop/integrated-amplifiers/diablo-120/ Nice used one across the border https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649720823-gryphon-diablo-120-like-new/ Cheers George |
