As an owner of speakers no longer produced, it’s no fun walking on eggshells fretting about blowing a driver someday. IMHO, as good as the Salons are, there are tons of great speakers out there so don’t put yourself through the stress. For a similar price used I’d suggest Joseph Audio Perspective, Acoustic Zen Crescendo, Vandy 5, Nola KO, etc. You get the point. Life’s too short to worry about blown drivers.
Revel Ultima Salon opinions
Browsing local sales, I find a pair of Revel Ultima Salon available locally for under $6k. That seems like a fair deal considering they were MSRP at $15k new. I've not had a chance to see them yet but the photos look good.
Any of you folks have experience with these? I've only heard the more recent Performa2 and Concert3 models.
Thanks.
