REVEL’s PerformaBe Series was born out of the desire to create a loudspeaker that redefined performance expectations. The development team focused on every component in excruciating detail 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 PerformaBe 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.
The Beauty Of Beryllium
When it comes to high-frequency transducers, beryllium is the clear winner known for producing crisp high frequencies with excellent detail and resolution.
Compared to other metals like aluminium and titanium, beryllium offers 4.5 times the stiffness and three times more damping. And it does all of this at only half the weight. This allows you to hear every note clearly without any unwanted colouration, even at very high volumes.
HIGH-FREQUENCY PERFECTION
At the heart of the PerformaBe models lies a 1-inch/25mmberyllium tweeter driven by massive 85mm dual ceramicmagnets. This powerful tweeter is mated to a ceramic-coated,cast-aluminum Acoustic Lens waveguide engineered to seamlessly integrate with the directivity of the companion midrange or midbass driver. The result is a tweeter with greater efficiency, improved dynamic range, reduced distortion, and increased power handling compared to aluminum or titanium tweeters.
ADVANCED HIGH-ORDER CROSSOVER NETWORKS
PerformaBe crossover networks utilize all film capacitors and air core inductors in the midrange and tweeter circuits, as well as the woofer circuit in the bookshelf model. These premium components allow Revel’s engineers to extract nuances and details that would otherwise be lost to lesser components. Combined with traditional Revel high-order crossover slopes and proprietary Acoustic Lens waveguide geometry, transducer integration is seamless, delivering a holistic, three-dimensional soundstage that allows the loudspeakers to simply disappear, leaving only you and the music.
