Miss much from salon 2 to studio 2?

Your dealer sounds like he is giving you good advice for the best bang for the buck , but I would evaluate your financial situation and find the extra funds for the Salons . There are a better sounding speaker and they alleviate the issue of tinkering with aftermarket subs , and all the extra cords cables ect , ect .

He told me that the primary difference between the studio and salon is bass extension and some loss in the mid range driver. He says the sim is has a more forward mid range and that is a good match with the studio. He mention that the two speakers are very close and depending on room size, reflection points, wall treatments and other less than ideal environment the difference between the salons and studio maybe smaller than one thinks. Meaning the difference would be very close.

He mentioned that my room size 22 x 14 could support either salon or studio. And stated that if home theaters is the primary goal over 2 channel than the studio with the voice is a better setup. But he would be happy to take my money for the salons. I told him 80 percent home theater.

Did you ever settle on a speaker? Aerial 7Ts or theRevel Studio2?.
