Revel Salon 2 versus WP 8


Anyone done a comparison?

Anyone see those Magico Stereophile measurements? I was expecting them to be A LOT better considering all the hype some folks have been spreading around these fora hand-in-hand with insults concerning how other speakers measure graph wise...
Let’s see, A speaker that is -/+ 3 db flat anechoic from 40 Hz to 40K. A bass response in room down to 20 Hz with 88 db efficiency in sealed box!! No resonant box modes to be found. A 4 ohm nominal around the entire power region and a superbly clean spectral-decay plot. What exactly more do you want? A Wilson tag name?
Jeff,
Fully agree with you regarding Magico review(and JA measurements).
I had a chance to audition them in Milan 2007 Hifi Show and I start wondering what that fuzz is all about... They did not impressed me at all.

A LOT better?? Are you for real? What more do you need a BJ? Here is a speaker that goes a full octave above and below the WP, doing it in a smooth and linear fashion with a step response that makes the WP look like an Aztec pyramid and you are not impressed. Why am I not surprise? Anyway, these measurements, read objectively, should put many myths to sleep. Especially in regards the bass performance of the properly design loudspeaker.
Jkalman - why are you selling your W/P8s? You were a strong advocate of Wilson Speakers; your voice will be missed...
