I heard the new Revel Studio's and the Salon's. Both had very poor imaging. I didn't like them at all. I heard both of them in different stores with different electronics. The result was the same. I couldn't believe it at first after all the good press they've received.
It's not even close, the Studio 2 is the better speaker in terms of cohesiveness, midrange resolution and bass (the 802D is too heavy in that regard). The only category in which the 802D is superior is aesthetics imo as the Revels remain tough to look at.
