I love visiting as many recording studios as I can and have been lucky enough that my work has allowed me to do it over the years in a few markets (Miami, LA, NYC).

A few nights ago, I visited one of the few remaining recording studio's in NYC, the monitors in the main room were Yamaha NS10's, Auratone's, big ADAMs, and very large horn loaded 4x's 15inch woofer monsters. In the secondary room there were NS10's and soffit mounted monitors with 2x's 15's and a ported 18" sub per side. Very powerful sound indeed!!


I kept thinking of "circle of confusion" that Dr. Toole talks so much about. Each studio is so different one to the other, even when its in the same production house. The above video is a MUST watch!

Anyways, I got home that night and spent a lot of time with my Revels and just felt really great about the sound I am getting. Since the 208's are so flat, you really hear the nuances from recording to recording. Even the "bad" recordings sound pretty decent and the great recordings sound spectacular. With so many different production techniques, studios, monitors, "circle of confusion" - I am sure glad I can enjoy pretty much anything I play through the Revels.

Here are some snaps of the studio:
