EN.
General: The Quad Revela series consists of two models, the Quad Revela 1 standmount loudspeaker (+ optional matching Revela Stands), and the Revela 2 floorstanding loudspeaker. This is the listing for the Quad Revela 2 floorstanding loudspeaker, a very high-quality and luxuriously finished loudspeaker with an excellent price/quality ratio.

Technology : The Quad Revela 2 is a loudspeaker that radiates luxury and elegance. With its beautiful high-gloss finishes (choice of walnut or black), you get a pair that will delight not only your ears but also your eyes. The cabinet is not only stylish but also very solid. The Quad Revela 2 weighs 31.8 kg per loudspeaker, which is a good weight for a loudspeaker less than a metre tall. A heavy, solid cabinet reduces cabinet coloration from the loudspeakers and provides more solid bass reproduction. The drivers used were specially developed for the Revela series. For example, a True Ribbon tweeter is used, extremely light and accurate, without distortion or harshness. The 150mm midrange driver and two 165mm bass woofers are specially developed drivers with a diaphragm made of an advanced and versatile blend of various fibre types; Quad calls this composition 'Reveal™', a very fitting name, given the resolving power of this modern driver. The rubber surround was also made specifically for the Revela drivers, and the magnet drive is extremely powerful, which ultimately results in a very articulate, powerful, flowing sound with the great control we are used to from Quad. The cabinet is an open baffle with a bass reflex port at the rear. It is deeply tuned so that it is not overly prominent in situations where the loudspeakers are placed closer to a rear wall. Even so, as with virtually every loudspeaker, a minimum distance from the rear wall is recommended.

Listening: The Quad Revela 2 has a very refined and transparent character that is very pleasant to the ear. The ribbon tweeter sounds very clean and distortion-free, allowing it to bring out a large amount of detail without becoming sharp or aggressive. The highs do not feel particularly prominent, but rather transparent and airy, giving the music a lot of space and openness. The midrange is natural and smooth with a touch of warmth, and there is a good transition between the midrange and the low and high ranges. Voices and acoustic instruments therefore gain sufficient body, while small nuances remain clearly audible. Especially with jazz, the attack of a saxophone, the brass of a trumpet and the tapping of drumsticks are reproduced convincingly. The bass reproduction of the Quad Revela 2 is deep and powerful, but also round and enjoyable. It is simply a very musical bass reproduction that does not become tiring easily. The spatial imaging is large, the character is natural, organic and easy to live with, and you can enjoy many music genres with the Quad Revela 2. In short: the Quad Revela 2 is a very complete and musical loudspeaker in a stylish cabinet with a pleasing price/quality ratio.
