dr-dezibel Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I'm going to buy the Revox receiver model B285 from the late 80s for a secondary system (stereo only). Anyone using Klipsch speakers with Revox amps/receivers? How do they match? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedball Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Wow, A 220 wpc receiver if I'm not mistaken. I've never even heard of Revox before until now, sure looks interesting. GoodLuck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revox did a lot of top end studio tape machines in the 70's, IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheltie dave Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 The Revox reel to reels and tuners from that design period are superb quality, value, and style. I have never heard a single Revox amp, but the performance should follow the elegant looks. Good luck and enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale A B Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 The B285 was the only model listed in the October 89 Audio annual equipment roundup and had a list price of $3000 US. 70 watts per channel. A remote control was optional equipment - Nice ! NP - Van Halen - Women & Children 1st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
