"my harbeths and proacs are a notch less sensitive than your teks -- wonder about db headroom"
If they work fine with the PL, likely fine with Raven.

I caught this line from a review on the Reflection, which was disappointing to find out:
"The amp runs in self-bias, or cathode bias, which is my preference for consumer electronics.":

Their autobias isn't the latest that VAC/PL use.

In the grand scheme of things, it's something that's not going to be heard from your speakers. But if we're comparing parts.....
Other than having a more diverse lineup, I don't see much difference from other small USA companies.

I wouldn't be surprised if Raven is really a Korean company that just ships their stuff here to be assembled. Who cares...if it sounds great, which I don't doubt, it doesn't matter.
