Stuck? NO! Have great speakers? YES! I had Revel Studio2 and loved them. I want Revel Salon2 but am waiting a little while longer to see what happens. Several friends own Salon2's, and I hear them on a regular basis. Amazing, truly amazing speakers. They do no wrong and so many things right. Stunning with moderate to high powered tubes and with good, clean, solid state. Zero fatigue, easy to place, perfect tweeter, 3D and powerful bass. Best speaker for the money. Does not need much, pretty much perfect now. If Revel does tweak a little, everyone else better watch out. It will be a tough act to follow.
Are Revel and Paradigm Stuck?
My question is not pejorative. Actually, it may be complimentary.
Not sure how long the Revel Ultima Salon 2 or the Paradigm Signature 8 (v3) has been on the market. Maybe over 6 years??? But that is what begs the question.
About a year or so ago, I thought I read somewhere that Revel is working on a Salon 3, but I haven't heard or read much since. Similarly, the Paradigm S8 (versions 2 and 3) have been around for an even longer time, maybe since the mid-2000s.
So the question is ... how come? I would have thought Revel and Paradigm, like many high-end companies, would be rushing new models out every other year or so.
Looking forward to reading some insightful posts.
Cheers,
