I don't think the Salon 2 and Magico A3 are close in price are they? Aren't they targeted at different audiences? I would have "guessed" that the Salon would outperform Magico's lowest price offering.
The least surprising piece of data was about the Diana Krall track. |

Not sure what the price point of the Magico A3 is but the performance of the 'lesser' Revel is the real key here IMO and I suspect that does not come as a surprise to Mr. 'R' .........

I believe the Magico's were originally priced at just below $10k and with the recent price increase now around $11k. I think the Salons are about $21k.

A3s were originally $10K and are now $12.5K.

interesting, so they are more in line with the Studio 2's (my speakers). Would liked to have seen that comparison, not that I'm about to make any changes.

Isn't there a built-in bias here? Wouldn't Harmon employees be likely to listen to Revel's frequently and therefore be somewhat pre-conditioned to their "sound"? Don't get me wrong, I've heard the F228be and found it to be an outstanding speaker. And, I've heard the Magico's (also good but not quite as "great" as the Revels IMO). But ... is there not more than likely a bias that's been introduced into the "testing" here by using all Harmon employees for the test?
