INTRODUCTION
The QUAD Revela Series is a striking new speaker series from QUAD - the originators of
‘The Closest Approach To The Original Sound’.
Revela continues the QUAD innovations laid out in recent years, taking learnings from the award-winning S-series and
Z-series whilst maintaining its strong design heritage, traceable back to 1949 and the first QUAD speaker – the Corner Ribbon.
QUAD Revela brings modern design cues coupled with the now synonymous QUAD ‘True Ribbon
TM
’ HF driver.
QUAD’s director of Acoustics, Peter Comeau, has furthered his ground-breaking engineering work in developing a new
Ribbon HF that brings a new level of musical delicacy, smoothness and hear-through performance that helps make the
music sing. The True Ribbon HF will reveal beautiful details of your music collection with a truly a breathtaking
performance.
The QUAD Revela HF is married to equally high-performance bass and midrange drivers. Using a new ‘Reveal
TM
’
advanced fibre composition, the QUAD Revela drivers have been subject to almost 3 years of continuous innovation.
Refined and further refined for seamless integration with the Ribbon HF, the smooth diaphragm drivers were purpose
selected based upon their rigidity and excellent self-damping properties. Combined with the specially developed, custom
rubber surround for a greater excursion and high-power motor system, the result is a superb bass performance, with
power, depth, speed and articulation in abundance.
And, of course, putting it all together is a phase-compensated
Acoustic Butterworth
crossover that is the result not
only of Computer-Aided Design but also hundreds of hours of critical listening tests using all types and flavours of
music, in order to achieve perfection.
Each QUAD Revela cabinet is skilfully hand-finished with real-wood veneers and precision-fitted baffle seamlessly joined
with a polished finish. But more than just a truly stunning furniture quality piece of craftsmanship, the cabinet is internally
braced, using a purpose engineered structure connect to the cabinet panels in a manner that dissipates unwanted
vibrations and resonances, thus maintaining structural rigidity, even under the most strenuous of performances.
Adding to the highly effective innovations in QUAD Revela, the port tube design is precisely positioned with the optimum
diameter and flaring to prevent longitudinal resonances from colouring the speaker's performance. The low and midrange
frequencies can perform with a free-flowing purity and no unintended resonance or boominess – giving you the full
dynamics of your music.
QUAD Revela Series – advanced technology, beautiful looks and breatktaking performance combined for
‘The Closest Approach To The Original Sound’.
