Revel Salon 2 vs Vandersteen 5a Carbon

Both excellent, and you don’t have garbage now.

Assuming you like what you have now, but want something a tad more refined, but with the big, spacious soundstage that the OHM’s in particular provide (though the Triton’s are no slouch)... if you can find some 5a carbons I would lean that way.  Though, you may not need all the oomph the 452 can provide with the carbons.

If you can somehow find a pair of used Salk SS10’s or 12’s, I would put those on your list.

Myron, who reviewed for HT Review for a while had some SS12’s he was selling.  He’s in California... he was willing to ship. 

I really enjoyed my OHM’s, though they were not as refined as others.  But the huge soundstage was awesome.  I’ve liked most Revel’s as they are voiced correctly.

I find my SS12’s to provide the best of both worlds.  The ss10’s would do the same.  But, very hard to find.

I currently use a Mc462 and C2700... I’m happy and for the first time I’ve not had any thoughts of a change.  

But with the two you have listed... I lean toward the Vandersteen, but the Revels - also excellent.

If you love the Triton Ones, move up to the $10K Triton Reference.  That is what I did and have zero regrets.  They are powered by Mac electronics.  

I am seeking a “wow” what a difference experience. Anyone with experience with either or both of these speakers compared to what I have? Should I make a change or not?

I know the Salon 2 are considered some of the best Revel has made but they aren't in production anymore so you'll have to find used or might still be a demo pair around.  I have no idea if they would be a wow I've never heard the Goldenear speakers.
