Based on my experience with audiophile adjectives, logic, business, and Wendell's comments, I would say I'm very confident you can rest easy Sceptic.
By the way, I've heard your speakers (3.7's) numerous times - they're great speakers - always will be. |

I owned the 3.7 for a year and I agree, they are outstanding speakers and a tremendous value. I still haven't had a chance to stop in at my dealer and audition the 3.7i but I promise I will the next time I'm there.
I was seriously considering upgrading to the 20.7 last year but I went with the Revel Salon 2 because they also sounded great, the spouse liked them better and I got a terrific deal. Hence my handle, PlanarSpeakerFan. Also owned Apogee Duetta Signatures for years. Ken |

Money and wife aside, which speaker did you like better? I'm curious to hear your opinions of the RS2 vs 20.7.

Hi Russell,
It's hard to place one above the other, both are reference level speakers in my opinion, even at their price point. Each speaker has its own strong points. The 20.7 excel with their huge soundstage, it's like a wall of sound is coming at you, tall, wide and deep. The lifelike quality of piano is the best I've heard. Vocals are liquid, organic and true to life. Bass is both tight and fast. The Salon 2 is a great all-around speaker with no weak points. Very fast with tremendous dynamics and powerful deep reaching bass. The speaker is very neutral and transparent with the smoothest and most seamless treble I've heard. If you closed your eyes, you would think you were listening to a planar speaker. Its produces vocals as lifelike and holographic as the best planar speakers. I would never have considered a dynamic speaker until I heard them. I've since auditioned the Vandersteen 7 and they are in the same category with even a bigger soundstage than the Salon 2. The bottom line is I could have been extremely happy with either speaker. Best, Ken |
