Acoustic Zen makes a critically acclaimed line of speakers rarely matched in value and sound for the money. Sallie Reynolds of Absolute Sound said about the Adagio: “What is the sound of no distortion? …The Adagios are so free of distortion that sounds usually lost in “noise” – soft sounds that get masked all to easily – were coming through across the entire frequency range.” The Crescendo is one of the best speakers I’ve ever heard regardless of price. All are efficient-89-90db or more-so modest power amps are at home with these beautifully finished speakers.
     We have the Adagio floor standing in burl and the Adagio Jr. stand mount in rosewood for you to audition.  The retail per pair of the Adagio is $4400, and the Adagio Jr. is $3400.  The difference is mainly in the lower octaves, the Jr. is not quite as defined as the Adagio, and doesn’t reach quite as low.  The Adagio is a transmission line enclosure, and the Adagio Jr. is ported.  Otherwise, the crossover is identical and the drivers are as well.  Both are dynamic, very musical, and have large soundstage with incredible depth.  I find myself comparing all other speakers to the Adagio, the Adagio being my reference speaker.  Especially when coupled with the Atma-Sphere amps.

Launched in 1996, Revel has been hailed by audiophiles and reviewers from around the globe for making the world’s finest loudspeakers.

There are four families of Revel loudspeakers: Ultima2, the ultimate expression of loudspeaker performance and design. They are simply second to none. Performa; loudspeakers that possess most of the performance and features found in the Ultima family in more traditional cabinet designs. Concerta; utilizing many of the technologies and features found in the Performa family at more affordable prices. In-Wall; Revel performance and quality for custom installation applications.
     We have the F12 and its mating center channel on hand, also the F32 set at our Folsom location for your auditioning pleasure.  Our Weimar showroom has the capability to demo the F12 in a theater setup as well as in 2 channel mode, with your choice of amps.  Or we can bring them to you to hear in your system.  We will have to have dolly access to your listening room as these speakers are heavy.

Whether it is Ultima, Performa, Concerta or in-wall, owning Revel speakers is a pleasurable experience for both ears and eyes…
