I'm interested in impressions from people who have auditioned both. Not really looking for what is 'better' (as it's all subjective anyway), but more for characteristics of each, where they are similar, where they differ, etc.
At this point I will probably stay with the Sashas. I know have them in a different room (wider with higher ceilings) and they sound quite different (very very good).
The revel salons are some of the most coherent multi driver speakers ever made, so I think any one here who says differently must be hearing something else wrong with their systems and not the revels. coherence of the drivers is just one of the things revel worked very hard on, and have more research and development in this area than wilson for sure.
Salons by a large margin IMO. The Salons will a VERY transparent source of the material. I'm big into revel/paradigm/psb speakers because of the fantastic measurements.
I found the Sasha's very capable but a tad bright and slightly constricked in both the systems I heard them in , for my tastes . The right power and lots of it might make them shine . The Salon's seemed more natural and relaxed in comparison . Although they sounded fine with Levinson gear , they became almost magical with the fuller , warmer Vitus amps .
