I have heard the revel f 208 loudspeaker.
The best loudspeaker Revel has ever made under $10,000
I know they spent over $30 million in research for the new Salon
And Performa 3 line . Every facet of the design including the drivers .
In the Perfoma series all Aluminum that are ribbedfor strength and to diffuse distortion,all poly caps, Copper air oil inductors and precision
Resistors. The cabinet is 1 inch thick this speaker is 80 lbs.
I thought this was a $7-8k speaker. This speaker I heard at studio in August
As a finished prototype.fantatic dispersion on top
Imaging was lock on, and the midrange and tweeter were very seamless.
The bass through test tones was almost ruler flat to below 34 hz.
Even at 26 hz there was some usable output. And this speaker was much more coherent and musical then Any psb,or paradigm in the $5-6k range
These speakers are not bright at all. I was told they take a solid 300 hrs
Of play time o fully settle in.
The dark walnut I saw was very elegant looking ,other company's
Would charge at least $600 for this veneer. The piano black in the pictures looked also very sharp. A no brainer.p.s their stand mount for $2k
Was by far the best I ever heard at that price point.also the F 208 is fully adjustable for the tweeter, as well as the bass which is a huge plus in a home environment.
