Revel Salon 2 vs Vandersteen 5a Carbon


I am a senior looking for my final set of speakers. Will be powered by McIntosh 452 amp and McIntosh C2500 preamp in a 20 x 18 room . Have Goldenear Triton 1’s and Ohm 5 mk-2  speakers now. Will I appreciate significant sound upgrade? Which would you recommend and why?

James633 above summarized it well. I have salon 2’s with McIntosh mc611. They are an excellent pairing. The Salon 2’s really are quite extraordinary especially considering their age. I directly compared to the Wilson Sabrina X and found the Revel to be better in terms of midrange and bass. The Revel was able to play louder and command the music. The Sabrina did have a slightly better tweeter. Overall really hard to fault the Salon 2 as it is so well rounded. I listen almost every day and there is no fatiguing.
