About the Vol. 1, David Jeffries from Allmusic said "Those who have experienced Wisin & Yandel's intense live show know what excitement they're in for here, but the concept of splitting the reggaeton duo's La Revolución Live set into two volumes calls for a little guidance. Both volumes feature highlights from the La Revolución tour -- a definite high point of the duo's career -- followed by three new studio tracks [...] This is a desirable package on its own, but it works best when paired with the equally pleasing Vol. 2."[9] About the Vol. 2 he said "The live portion of Vol. 2 features a live band that adds some organic flavor to the synthetic backing tracks. Their flashy -- and fairly trashy -- collaboration with R&B star T-Pain, gives Vol. 2 the slight edge over Vol. 1, but both work best when paired for the full La Revolución Live experience."[10]
