Magico S5 vs Revel Salon 2


Hi all,

I have read some glowing reports from both forum members and professional reviewers, on the Magico S5's.

I have been a happy Revel Salon 2 owner for a few years, but I am getting the upgrade itch again.

I am only at the early stages of considering this, so I will of course be conducting dealer and home demo's when the time comes.

In the meantime I would be really interested to hear from anyone that has compared both the S5 and the Salon 2 - ideally side by side in the same room and system. I'm interested to hear how the two models compare in performance terms (I appreciate there is a considerable price differential), particularly in reference to imaging/sound stage, detail retrieval and dynamics.

Thanks in advance,

If you have an itch (and do I understand) can you scratch it somewhere else? The Revel Salon 2 are pretty damn fine loudspeakers.

I hope by your comment you mean, can I look elsewhere in my system to make the changes rather than the speakers (rather than can I just take a hike!).

Indeed. I would not be so rude to suggest the latter. But as Ptss said, tell us about the complete system so we can have some fun analyzing it. ;-)

Regards,
