Speaker that are 'KEEPERS" for the long haul!!!


For years and years, I brought in a multitude of different speakers into my listening room, never really being truly, completely satisfied with any of them. So the speaker merry-go-round went on and on, until I finally found the speakers that put all of that to rest. Not only was I dissatisfied, I was also going broke in the process. All that buying and selling was killing me and stressing me out, as well. It was the Revel Salon 2 speakers that finally got the job done for me. Once I got my hot little hands on the Revel Salon 2 speakers, it was all over. Now, I have absolutely no desire to switch out the Salons for anything else. The Revel Salon 2 speakers covered all the sonic bases for me, truly capturing my imagination, from top to bottom, like none of the others completely did. I get to hears all the new speakers at dealers and at shows, and they all sound just awesome, too.  But, still, for my money, the Salons 2s are the ones (they’re just that good). The Revel Salon 2 speakers turned out to be all the speaker I think I’ll ever need, and will be with me for the duration. For which, my ears and my wallet thank me.

This post by @kennymacc brought back memories of a great speaker purchase. It was about 15 years ago and at the time the Revel Ultima Salon was one of the contenders. In the end it was the 30th anniversary Dynaudio Sapphire that won over all others. Besides the performance the shape/styling and finish were unlike anything I had seen. Although I have considered purchasing other speakers since then I’m happy to still be using them to this day- definitely keepers!

Ohm Walsh 2 I sent to the factory, upgraded to the super 2-2000 several years ago.

Amazing-will never let them go!

Definitely audition the Rockport Cygnus! I have the Avior ii and they are an amazing speaker! I have paired them with the Boulder 866 integrated. Incredible sound. I have a dedicated room as well although it is much smaller than yours. Good luck!
