I am looking for a reasonably priced convolution reverb for classic guitar and flute.  What are some recommendations?
 
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tom,
 
You might want to check this out as they have a demo version you can try. http://www.liquidsonics.com/software.htm
 
I have been using both the full and core version for over a year and have no complaints whatsoever. I have received several free updates over that time also.
 
Kind regards,
Rick

Another inexpensive one is MMultiBandConvolution I picked it up on one of their 50% off sales. Still not bad at the full price of ~$46

X2 already has Perfect Space...while the included impulses aren't great,
you can pick up a lot of really good Impulses for free to use...

There is also FreeVerb...
http://freeverb3.sourceforge.net/

If you own any Waves plugs you get access to the Acoustics.net Impulse Library,
which has a lot of really good impulses...

Waves IR-L is a nice Convo...not as adjustable as IR-1
http://www.waves.com/plugins/ir-l-convolution-reverb

One of the highest rated FREE Convo's is SIR 1...

There is a higher end version, SIR 2, which is $189...

SoundsOnline's  Spaces is alright...
http://www.soundsonline.com/Spaces

These are still a little pricey...

I highly recommend downloading the Demo's and see what works for you...

Whatever you decide to get keep in mind it's more about the IR than the software that's important.
Many of the free ones you can find on the internet are horrible.

I see you use Sonar & if you're not aware of it you have Voxengo's Perfect Space convo verb included.
Try this free Bricasti M7 lib from Samplicity.

+1 to this, Had Reverberate for a couple years now and I would recommend.

Sound quality in PerfectSpace is equal to any other convolution reverb, and it's quite full-featured. The only downside to PerfectSpace versus others is that it's not a true stereo reverb. IOW, the inputs are summed and then the delayed copies are randomly panned. This isn't as much of a limitation as it sounds, and many reverbs (both convolution and algorithmic) work this way.
 
However, I'd think that one exception where it might be a limitation would be small ensembles of acoustical instruments, where preserving panoramic subtleties could be more important. You might therefore want to take a look at Voxengo's Pristine Space, big brother to PerfectSpace. At $120 it's not particularly cheap, but it does offer true stereo operation.

I've had Pristine Space for several years & although it works fine & features true stereo it's not 64b & he doesn't have any plans to do it.
 
It also doesn't come with any IR's.
I see there's some available  to dl although not that great IIRC. 
Looking at it again I remember how antiquated it works & looks, wouldn't spend $120.00 on this.
