From current Magico range I would suggest serious audition of S5. IMHO S5 beats Salon 2 in all aspect save for sweet spot size and bass depth. Regarding S5 bass it is awsome bass for sealed box design that in room goes to around 20hz(-10db point). Character of that bass is different then most ported speakers. It is tighter with great impact, but without mid bass hump mostly normal on ported designs.

Of course, if money is not the object I would go for Q7.
Agree with you: Revel Salon is a very good speaker but a pair of S5 would beat it easily. And when you get used to sealed box design there is no way back.
