Hello @kennymacc , I also own and love the Salon 2's. About 7 years ago, I set out to move my venerable B/W N802's downstairs and wanted new speakers for our family room. Sound of course for me, but my lady was tired of the B/W look.
We spent a long day, demoing speakers including Sonus Faber Amati Traditions, Focal Kanta 3's, Magico S2's, Kef Reference, Proac D48's and K model (nice) and finally a pair of used STUDIO 2's. I bought the Studio 2's. I loved them, but they did not quite fill up my large open floor plan of family room / kitchen.
Then, amazingly, a fellow posted an add asking to trade his Salon 2's for Studio 2's and some cash. Done.
The Salon 2's are awesome. They do nothing wrong, never offend, love quality electronics and wires, and continue to please and amaze me. I now have a pair of YG Hailey 2's downstairs. They are more resolving and technically much superior. Yet I love listening to the Salon 2's. Like the girl next door vs the prom queen!
And they look nice in the family room to boot! Mine are the Mahogany finish.
