OK, let me start this off by saying my introduction to reverb, and the sounds I hear in my head and love when I think of reverb comes from my 2nd amp being a Fender London Reverb, and one of my best friends and jam buddies amp being a NMV Ampeg VT22 combo. The reverb on both of those amps are perfect albeit decidedly different in texture.

Since then I have owned a;

Mesa Tremoverb whose reverb was good, but nowhere near as deep as the Ampeg or Fender.

Dr. Z Reverb unit, and absolutely the equal of the Fender Reverb units and their clones I have played through, and better than almost every amp reverb I have ever played through except...

Magnatone Panoramic Stereo Head, and this amp may just have had the most incredible spring reverb I have ever heard. Considering the examples I have either owned or played through above that says a lot about just how damn good it is.

I need a stereo reverb pedal with high input headroom since it will be getting smacked with a signal that is boosted by both a cranked Treble Booster, and a Fulltone TTE with the output a bit above unity gain to boost the output even more, and a Fulltone SupaTrem 2 which also has a hot output run at 18v.

I want a reverb that can go from the cavernous drier sound of the Ampeg VT22, like on White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane, to super wet Dick Dale and Ventures surf approved Fender style reverb.

Watchu got?
 
The Anasounds pedal with an actual spring tank was pretty cool. Had one for a bit when I fancied myself a pedal guy
 
Not a big fx guy, but I have tried a lot of reverbs in front of amps. Strymon Blue Sky is a great sounding reverb with stereo outs, that works great in front from the ones I've tried.

I would add them, but I kind of need a smaller footprint.

I gotta say I am really liking the simplicity of the True Spring, and the only complaints I've seen are referencing the difficulty dialing in the tremolo via the app. I have my Trem needs more than covered already with the Fulltone, so that really doesn't matter.

Also they come up really reasonably priced used.

Thanks for all the input everyone.
 
I am not a reverb expert but my Hardwire RV7 has several reverb options including spring, plate, room, etc and stereo outs. Sounds legit to me :dunno:
