Revel Salon 2 versus WP 8

Jeff,
Fully agree with you regarding Magico review(and JA measurements).
I had a chance to audition them in Milan 2007 Hifi Show and I start wondering what that fuzz is all about... They did not impressed me at all.

I was expecting them to be A LOT better

A LOT better?? Are you for real? What more do you need a BJ? Here is a speaker that goes a full octave above and below the WP, doing it in a smooth and linear fashion with a step response that makes the WP look like an Aztec pyramid and you are not impressed. Why am I not surprise? Anyway, these measurements, read objectively, should put many myths to sleep. Especially in regards the bass performance of the properly design loudspeaker.

Jkalman - why are you selling your W/P8s? You were a strong advocate of Wilson Speakers; your voice will be missed...

iirc, it's because he's going with the Revel Salon2.

The Salon2 works better in my HT setup as a center channel. The vocals are not as natural sounding and open on the Revels, but the bass integrates better. Both are great speakers, but one will work better behind an acoustically transparent screen due to the built in treble controls. Don't read too much into it... If I had a second listening room I would keep both.
