Revel's Ultima Salon2

Submitted by Grosse Fatigue on

I can safely post this one as I won't have to edit it:

The Salon2s are a cosmetic downgrade from the Salon1s. The Hansens are the new Revel Ultimas!

The Revel first series had a beautiful and immediately recognizable design that they should have been able to improved upon. Instead, now, we have those ugly speakers. I don't care if they sound better.

Hi

How would you think a comparison between some of the high end AV receivers against a similar priced intergrated would go ? say Onkyo 906, Pioneer SC07, Denon 4308 etc against say Creek Destiny, NAD M3 etc.

Do you think its close or a no contest ?

How about taking into account DSD via HDMI into the reciever ?

The receiver has all sorts of network connectivity, streaming, DAC etc that makes it really good value but not if it sounds like crap !!

What are the general thoughts or experiences

It was love at first sight when I saw a Jamo Reference R 909 loudspeaker in sparkling red lacquer on the floor of the 2007 Consumer Electronics Show. It made no sound, but it was beautiful, and I wanted it. It summoned up all my latent predilections for snazzy colors, striking shapes, and dipole speakers. But, as with many passing encounters in life, nothing came of it.

Hats off to John Atkinson!

Thanks for the comparing Simaudio Moon Evolution P7 to Mark Levinson No.380S, Ayre KX-R and Parasound Halo JC 2. I am not nitpicking here but still the comparison was a tiny tiny bit incomplete.

Although I understand that no component is absolutely neutral especially when all components in a system interact with each other to impart a sound. Nonetheless, a reviewer of your experience can still identify the absolute character of each component by isolating the effect of other components by only changing one variable at a time.
