Hello @ghdprentice and @hk_fan ! I own the Revel Salon 2's and have heard the SF Amatis at Overture in Delaware. I have to disagree with Bard. I have the Salon 2s in a large family room that connects through the eat in area and then large kitchen, So a large space with vaulted ceiling and fireplace. The speakers are on the short fireplace wall projecting into the long open space. I power them with Audionet Max amps and MM Makua wi onboard Tambaqui. The Grimm MU1 streamer comes and goes downstairs. Anyway, the tall Salon 2s project beautifully in the big space with high ceiling over them. They are not analytical at all, just easy going and musical. They are far less resolving than my YG Haileys. I heard the Amatis the same day I bought the Salon 2s. To me, by comparison, the SF Amatis were a bit darker, less lively and less resolving. I had the Studio 2s before and traded up to the Salons. Same sound signature but huge difference in presence, bass and amount of air they move. Good for a smaller room.
I liked the Salon 2s so much I considered getting another pair for my downstairs system. So I lugged them down there and hooked them up. They were way to tall and imposing for my smaller, seated on a closer couch listening space. Back upstairs they went and I knew I needed a shorter speaker for downstairs.
The Salon 2s excel in a large open room with plenty of power.
