High Sound Quality Realized in a Compact Body


"REVEL" is an audio brand originating from California, USA. As a member of the Harman International Group, it is produced by the same Harman Luxury Audio Group as Mark Levinson. Furthermore, it creates high-end speakers through technological collaboration with speaker brands under the group, including JBL.

The newly introduced "CONCERTA2" series was developed based on REVEL's design philosophy of integrating acoustic engineering and sound quality, a principle inherited since the brand's establishment in 1996.

The series inherits the acoustic performance of the higher-end "PERFORMA 3 Series" through three models: the 2.5-way floorstanding speaker "F35," the 2-way bookshelf speaker "M16," and the 2-way center speaker "C25." It achieves a compact size and an accessible price point.

This model not only utilizes Harman's acoustic technology but also considers psychoacoustic theory to pursue ideal sound quality. In particular, the reflected sound characteristics, which influence the sound quality of direct-radiating speakers, were meticulously designed over time. A waveguide and equalizer are combined with a 25mm aluminum diaphragm to create a smooth tone.

The woofer employs a lightweight yet highly rigid MCC (Micro Ceramic Composite) aluminum cone for its diaphragm, suppressing unwanted resonance and enhancing the reproduction of sonic details. Notably, the F35 is equipped with three 130mm woofers. Two of these function as woofers, while the uppermost one serves as a mid-woofer, dividing the frequency range. This approach ensures a smoother transition in the mid-low frequencies.

Furthermore, the enclosure features a rounded side cabinet design, which suppresses standing waves and improves panel rigidity.

Available in black and white, both featuring a stylish high-gloss finish that complements interior decor.
