Revel Performa3 is tuned to perfection… Two years in the making, Revel’s new speaker range achieves a beautiful balance of proprietary engineering, build quality and design.
Revel’s new Performa3 range of music and home theatre loudspeakers incorporates perfectly optimised systems of proprietary drivers, cabinets and crossovers, meticulously refined and tested over two years to meet the most rigorous performance criteria and production consistency. Complementing their high calibre design quality, Revel Performa3 loudspeakers are beautifully finished in a choice of high-gloss real wood and automotive-grade painted finishes. more…
The nine Revel Performa3 loudspeakers deploy proprietary drivers throughout. The 1-inch purealuminium-dome tweeters deliver extended high-frequency response to beyond 20kHz, complete with excellent detail and clarity. They use an exclusive Acoustic Lens Waveguide, precisely shaped for optimum imaging and horizontal and vertical dispersion both on and off axis.
The midrange and low-frequency drivers employ aluminium cones for superlative resolution and responsiveness, along with a seamless sonic blend with the tweeters. The cones have integral ribs that add strength and rigidity for clear, richly detailed sound with reduced distortion even at higher volumes. The drivers incorporate additional refinements including cast-aluminium frames and efficiently vented, high-power motor structures, to deliver smooth, natural vocal and instrumental reproduction.
Only the finest materials and internal components are used for Revel Performa3 loudspeakers, including air-core inductors and audiophile-grade polypropylene capacitors in the crossover network, and heavy-duty gold-plated binding posts. Depending on the model, a tweeter level control allows the speakers’ high-frequency balance to be fine-tuned, and a boundary control enables the speakers to be tailored to individual room acoustics and placement positions.
The enclosures are built to the highest standards, with internal damping and bracing at critical locations and curved side panels that minimise cabinet-induced colouration. The larger models feature individual sub-enclosures for the midrange drivers for maximum midrange clarity and definition. Each Revel Performa3 loudspeaker is individually calibrated against a manufacturing reference standard to ensure absolutely consistent performance from every speaker that leaves the factory.
Revel Performa3 loudspeakers are as stunning in appearance as they are in performance with elegantly proportioned curved and contoured enclosures available in a choice of high-gloss realwood and automotive-grade painted finishes.
