The Nebraska demo room was treated but very small in dimensions (almost identical to mine 13WX15LX10H). I think Persona was powered by an Anthem integrated with Dirac calibration and Revel was powered by some Mark Levinson amp (my memory is fading quickly here). Persona had a very tight bass but Revel went deeper. The sheer amount of mid to high-frequency details on Persona 5F was almost overwhelming ( I guess they are made to impress in a quick demo but in a long-running listening session, for me, there would be some listening fatigue). I felt when listening to Revel's due to their hi-mounted tweeter, the sound changed when I was sitting or squatting up. If I had to choose between those two, I would pick Salon 2. To be fair, it wasn't an apple-for-apple comparison due to the smaller size of Person 5F.Got it, thanks. I hear very mixed reviews on those Personas, hence reason not on my short list. And if you weren’t powering those Salon 2s with a “nuclear flux capacitor” (being silly, aka monster amp), I am sure you weren’t hearing them to their full potential
