Revel

Revel has added two models to their very successful Performa 3 series, both using beryllium tweeters. These are the bookshelf M126Be at $4000 per pair and the floor-standing F228Be at $10,000 per pair. They have also introduced two new micro component systems, one for 2-channel and one for home theater.

The Performa Be Series originated from the desire to create loudspeakers that redefined performance expectations. Using the award-winning Performa3 F208 and M106 as the starting point, Revel's development team re-engineered virtually every component in order to extract the finest details, the highest levels of performance, and the most emotion possible. With an all-new beryllium tweeter as the basis of the Performa Be Series, the result is unparalleled detail and accuracy along with a sense of air, spaciousness, and a cohesive soundstage that defines these models as world standards in performance. Key features include:

• 1-inch beryllium dome tweeter
• 5th-generation acoustic lens waveguide
• Deep Ceramic Composite (DCC) cone midranges and woofers
• Advanced crossovers with film capacitors and air core inductors
• Magnetically-attached grilles
• Four premium high-gloss finishes Available (metallic black, metallic silver, gloss white, and walnut

As for the new micro component systems, The SP2 at $600 consists of two Concerta M8 satellites in a new high-gloss finish while the SP5 comprises four of the M8s and a center channel at $1500. All of these satellites can be placed on a bookshelf or mounted on a wall with the included brackets. Both the SP2 and SP5 can be combined with the Concerta B8 wireless subwoofer at $500 to fill out the bass range. The resulting systems are perfect for smaller rooms and will give the excellent sound quality you expect to get from Revel
