Revel Studios- amplfier suggestions please

thanks for the replies
i am looking for a cheaper high-power alternative for mine
than the cal audio mca 2500 that they are currently being fed by
i am thinking of maybe a proceed hpa-2
or one of the older rowlnd or krell monoblocks.
if anyone has any experience with these i would appreciate it.
thanks for all the great talk thus far

I have a feeling many people would disagree with my choice of amplication for my Salons but I am totally content with my Bryston 7B-SST monblocks and the Bryston BP25 pre (especially with the new pre power supply, MPS-1).

I plug my amps directly into the wall with the Virtual Dynamics Signiture chords. I also use a VD Nite power chord on the pre-amp. The interconnects are all balanced and the 7B-SST amp gain is set to the lower of the 2 settings (very important with balanced interconnects) The sound is fatigue free, detailed, powerful, dynamic, and very emotionally satisfying. My muscial tastes are very eclectic.

I have also heard these speakers with expensise Mark Levinson amps and Halcro amps. My preferences in order were the Halcro, Bryston, and ML.

I don't have any problem with brystons. I think they have very similar features as proceed which pair quite well with the studios. I think either one of these would work well. I have heard the Brystons and initially hooked my studios to the HPA2 with great results. I would also look at conrad johnson. I initially had a system with Revel M20s,ect. hooked to amp2s and 3s, which were obviously satisfactory but generated a lot of heat for the space. I got the cj 5 channel amp to try out and the results were great. Very warm sound. These amps paired very well the Revels and a corresponding 2 channel would probably do well with the studios at a little higher power.

interesting idea
any thoughts on tube mono-blocks for these
i am cosidering some of the higher power vtl or sonic frontiers
any experiences?
also, how about classe components?

See above. My post suggested SF and Classe. Enjoying them both but not simultaneously. ;-)
