Former Revel Salon Owners: What Did You Switch To?


I have had Revel Salons for about eight years, and am toying with the idea of retiring them in favor of something new or different. I am curious to know what others replaced their Salons with, and how happy they have been with their Salon replacements. I am especially interested in choices where the replacement speaker was roughly equivalent or even less than the price of the Salons. Did you consider it an improvement, or just a lateral move, or a step back? What did you learn about the quality of the Salon by virtue of your experiences with a new speaker?

Please share your post-Salon experiences.

Jeff, after careful consideration and extensive listening experience with numerous alternative speakers, I upgraded my Salons to the Evolution Acoustics MM-Twos. The upgrade is very substantial and highly recommended.

I think you will have a hard time finding a speaker that beats the Salons at its price point. The Salons are truly world-class speakers with superlative transparency and timbral accuracy. The Evolution Acoustics speakers are the only speakers I found to clearly top the performance of the Salons in the reproduction of large scale orchestral music at a price that is within the stratosphere.
