REVELA 2 Floor-standing Speakers A floor-standing speaker incorporating twin 6.5″ woofers and a 6″ midrange mounted on a rigid die-cast chassis; this combination delivers a rich, controlled bass output with superb dynamic performance. QUAD’s Director of Acoustics, Peter Comeau, has furthered his ground-breaking engineering work in further developing this Ribbon HF with over four years of research to bring a new level of musical delicacy, smoothness and ‘hear-through’ performance, thus revealing beautiful details of your music collection with a truly breath-taking performance. Quad 33 & 303 and Quad Revela 2 -preamplifier / power amplifier combo and floorstan ding loudspeaker The Quad Revela 2 impresses with clear, detailed sound and excellent spatial representation. The True Ribbon tweeter offers exceptional delicacy and softness in the highs without appearing aggressive, while the precise bass and clear mids ensure a balanced sound. The elegant design with high-quality Revela 2 Dec 2024 Reveal™ The advanced ‘True Ribbon’ unit is married to equally high-performance bass and midrange drivers. Again, subject to many years of research, development, testing and continuous innovation, the mid and bass drivers feature a new advanced fibre composition, aptly labelled ‘Reveal™’. Refined for seamless integration with the ‘True Ribbon’ HF, the smooth diaphragm drivers were purpose selected based on their rigidity and excellent self-damping properties. This new diaphragm, combined with a new, specially developed custom rubber surround, for a greater excursion and a new high-power motor system, means that 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 resulting from not only Computer-Aided Design but also hundreds of hours of critical listening tests using all types and flavours of music to achieve perfection. Polished to Perfection The Revela series continues QUAD’s industrial design evolution, sported in the models of recent years – such as the Vena and Artera series. The Revela series cabinets are skilfully hand-finished to a quality far exceeding that of relative competitors in this class. The Revela series is available in options of a polished real-wood veneer and seamless polished-paint finish or a simple and uber-classy ‘all-black’ glossy paint finish. In either finish, the Revela cabinets are a sight to behold! The precision-fitted baffle is seamlessly joined, also with a polished finish, for a presentation of the highest order. More than just a genuinely stunning furniture-quality piece of craftsmanship, the cabinet is internally braced, using a purpose-engineered structure connected to the cabinet panels in a manner that dissipates unwanted vibrations and resonances, thus maintaining structural rigidity, even under the most strenuous of performances. More than just a photobook-quality design! Free-flowing Purity 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. A serious statement piece from QUAD, the Revela series is the culmination of more than four years of development. It offers advanced technology, beautiful looks and breath-taking performance, all combined masterfully for ‘The Closest Approach To The Original Sound’. AUDIO TEST The QUAD Revela 2 has perfect dynamics. It reproduces the bass in a tight and controlled manner without ever sounding spongy or imprecise. The mids and highs are not overlaid and remain clearly present in the sound. Revela 2 Oct. 2024 Hi-Fi News Outstanding Product Following the dazzling Revela 1, the Revela 2 enhances every sonic parameter you could address. More to the point, given that it occupies a nearly identical footprint to the Revela 1 on its dedicated stands, there's only one reason to buy the latter over the Revela 2, and that's budget. Upon comparing this to a £10k reference, the Law of Diminishing Returns slapped me in the face - t... Revela 2 Jun. 2024 Positive Feedback At its affordable price, it's available to almost anyone who wants to get into high-end audio. I also love that it plays well with tube amplification. And, although I would not label the Revela 2 a budget loudspeaker, I would call it a bargain. If I had not known the price I would've guessed at least two times higher. The Revela 2 was a pleasure to have in my system.
