Bottom Line: These are an excellent choice if you're looking for a highly efficient, very loud speaker to shake the floors and rattle your brains. Great for driving big parties and making the neighbors unwaveringly angry. With a decently powerful amplifier, you won't even need a subwoofer when you have these on the hookup.
But they are rather poor choice if you're looking for musicality. They're about as subtle as a jackhammer and as graceful as a wrecking ball. If it's transparency you are looking for, look elsewhere. These don't even begin to resemble an audiophile level speaker no matter how much you play with the equalizer. The only language they speak is explosive.
Bottom line: buy only if you're main interest in music listening is to shake the floor and rattle the brains. These are one of the best speakers in the world if you're into that sort of thing. But they truly suck if you want to really listen to music.

Bottom Line: Im powering my Cerwin Vegas with an Adcom amp-NAD preamp setup. The bass response is sooo deep it can be 'felt'. Mid and highs are tight and crisp. Even with age these vintage speakers kick ASS! Adcom is known for extreme power output and I can attest to this.But the RE-30's handle full volume easily. With a freq. response of 28-20k it sounds like a concert in my den. I highly recommend!

Bottom Line: I've owned my cerwin vega re 30 series now for over a decade. I have used a JVC RX 992-V amp since I've owned these speakers. Recently I bought a new pioneer elite vsx-52 and let me say these speakers still just plain sound awesome. I don't know why they make it so hard to find good speakers like this anymore that are affordable. I will continue to use these babies until they deteriate. Over a decade old and still pumping hard. You know they're a good speaker when the manufacturer warranty is 10yrs.

Bottom Line: I bought the RE30s back around 1995 or 96. I've had them since. They have traveled all over included a year in a frat house. These things are unbelievable. I've always had a Sony receiver hooked to them (STR-DE825). They sounded great with that and got too loud to bear. Now I have a Marantz 2238B hooked up. Now I realize that the Sony receiver was holding these things back. I have no doubt that my setup will hold its ground against those that cost 10x more. I play every kind of music- rock, classical, rap... and it sounds great with all of them. It can hit low frequencies that shake my brain.
