    Considering upgrade to Revel Performa series

    Alright, the upgrade bug is upon me and I have the money saved. I'm considering replacing my current energy veritas setup with the revel performa speakers. It would be f52's for the main's, c52's for the center, b15a for sub, and s30's for the surround.

    My current Rotel setup is the 1068 processor and 1080 & 1075 for power. Does anyone currently have this setup or similar? Also, I'm fine for power I believe correct? I have auditioned these speakers but McIntosh was processing and supplying the power.

    Any input is welcomed.

    Thanks,
    Shane

    Hi Shane. I'm currently running a Rotel 1068,1070,1075, And a Bryston 4b st for my mains. The RB-1070 is powering a Revel "Voice" center. While the RMB-1075 is running a pair of "Embraces" and a pair of S30's. The Bryston is used for the Revel Studio's I believe the RB-1080 and the Bryston are fairly close in power. The Bryston has no poblems pushing the Studio's. So I would think that the RB-1080 shoudn't have any problems running the F52's. And as far as the 1075 running the center and surrounds, no problem. Maybe not Mac gear but I bet it would sound pretty good.

      Speaker ID
      by mmoeller
      I've been looking to clone the Revel Performa F52. I have a pic of the drivers. I was wondering if anyone could identify.

      I see the tweeter has a custom waveguide attachment. Not too worried about that, just what tweeter it may be.

      Some or all of them may be exclusive...

I was told by the designer that I needed a speaker with strong low frequencies, for the bass to register in this room. I wont...
