Revel Salon 2 versus WP 8

Call me a bat but the Watt sound to me exactly like they measure. I believe that the word “bright” should be change to “harsh”. In regards to the break-ups, you need to keep in mind that when these get agitated, distortion levels of the entire tweeter rises. That is where the harshness come from.

If you are hearing those things, it is all in your head IMO. That or I must be very lucky. I'm 33 years old and I'm not hearing any of these issues in my setup... :D

You are not alone Jkalman, my experience tells me different as well; comments such as those by Dhaan do not phase me.

It is all in your head

I am afraid it is on paper as well.

I guess that for Watt owners, hearing loss is a bliss.

BTW, let it be known who started the insults trend (See Jkalman usual condescending posts above). I really do not mind it but soon you will run away crying about the “Wilson bashing” again. So, as they say, if you live in a glass house, you should not throw stones.

I think what happens is, people get an idea in their heads from other people or graphs and convince themselves they are hearing things that are not in all probability audible. Sadly, it is pervasive in this hobby... :(

Thanks for the support. I'll be back when I get a chance to hear the Salon2, though to be honest, unless I can put them in my room or unless the dealer's room is an adequate setup, I am loath to come to any overwhelming conclusions. I'll still be willing to give my impressions with any inherent disclaimers.

I'm still trying to find an environment where the Magico Minis have been set up well in my area. The Salon2 and the Magico Mini... Two speakers I would love to hear properly.

While at it, you should add the Magico V3 to the list.
