Very few speakers are designed and manufactured with cost no object in mind.
Revel ultimate gem 1’s where designed right after Samsung bought Harman industry. They developed those speakers with the idea of buying into the upper echelons of hifi market place.
Read what someone familiar with the development of those speakers said;
“What I was thinking about was how in the first generation Ultima speakers Harman Industries was all in to establish the Revel brand so controlling manufacturing cost, and profits, were no object. While most high-end audio speakers brands are minimally funded and attempt to pull themselves up by the bootstraps that was a rare instance of top management at a billion dollar corporation hiring one of the best designers in the industry and giving him a blank check. As was said back then Revel hit the market with “shock and awe” buying a place immediately in the first rank. Once the brand was established I watched as 2nd and later generation models were cost engineered for greater profit. In instances like that it is good to get the benefit of those deep pockets buying market share with a line of over engineered over build models.”
