Revel Studio or Revel Salon?

I been looking for a pair of great speaker and I read many great thing on the Studio and Salon. My question is that if the Salon is really that much better to justify the price different. I have also been looking at the Wilson's Watt/Puppies 6 or 7. How do they compare to the Revel.

Thanks

Oops, that was 2 words. Sorry.

Hope I didn't confuse the issue.

Maybe I've never heard the Revel Salons set up right, but I have heard them with Levinson 33H monoblocks and a Levinson front end. They sounded like a real good PA system. Not very refined. And the cabinets and drivers weren't very impressive, either. They'd probably be great if they cost about $8,000. But at $19,000 -- or whatever they're up to now, you can get a lot better speaker. The Wilsons pretty much embarrass the Revels. IMHO.

Ive owned and sold the Revel Salon and Studio. Regardless of room size(unless its a closet)the Salon is a better speaker regardless of price. Midrange clarity and bass definition and extension is better on the Salons no question.
