Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Same here

I listened to Revel Salon + all-Levinson (separates) system recently. This system is regarded by many to have perfect synergy, not surprising since all components come from the same manufacturer.

I could not find any flaw to the sound I was hearing. However, I also could not find anything special in its sound, nothing that pulled me into the music.

A much cheaper system (but NOT exactly cheap in absolute terms), Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage + Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista M3 + Musical Fidelity A3CD, gave me a much, much more involving musical experience. Right, the system's sound was a bit euphonic, and not quite as detailed as the Revel+Levinson, but the sound was simply fabulous.

And this is all because of personal taste. Somehow, my analytical mind is telling me that the Revel+Levinson system was the "more correct" system. But the artistic part of my brain tells me that the SF+MF system sounded "better".
