Revel Performa F50 Bookcase Speakers (Walnut). Selling my pair of Revel Performa F50s. Was used at my dads house and he no longer wants them. Paid $7,500 new for the pair.There is one cosmetic blemish on one (pictured), and some minor deterioration on the housing of the speakers (inside the cover), but overall theyre in great condition. These were disassembled from the full setup, but they sound amazing and are in perfect working condition. The housing for the subwoofer just needs a little TLC (only a cosmetic issue) and the interior theres a small tear in the rubber, but those are both easily fixable by anyone with a$1500 OBO. I also have Performa C30 in perfect working condition and could sell that as well for the ultimate home theater setup.Heres a little about the speakers:Revels driver design, which they call a ceramic composite, seems simple enough on paper; in practice, its anything but. In a nutshell, three layers of material—a core of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and two outer layers of glass fiber—form a glass substrate. Geopolymer resin bonds the layers into a single, solid structure, and heat is applied to cure and transform the resulting molecular structure into a true ceramic material. Maybe it doesnt sound so simple on paper, either, but it works. If you know Revel, you know that they wouldnt have let it out the door unless they were completely satisfied with the results.In the F50, the new drivers debut as three 6.5-inch woofers and a 5.25-inch midrange. The F50 also uses a different tweeter than its step-down sibling, the F30: It still uses a 1-inch dome, but the dome is constructed of pure titanium instead of aluminum alloy. New materials aside, the same successful philosophies that Revel has employed on their previous drivers are in place. These include matching the drivers to within 0.5 decibels of the companys reference units for precise timbre-matching; high-order crossover networks that increase power handling and reduce distortion by restricting the driver to its ideal operating bandwidth; physically separate woofer, tweeter, and midrange filter boards to further combat distortion; and massive overhung voice coils and large motor systems with tight tolerances. The crossover points are 225 hertz and 2.3 kilohertz. The F50s cabinet is 1-inch-thick MDF with extensive internal bracing and cavities (damped with Dacron and Fiberglas) that isolate the driver groups according to frequency range. The front baffle is rounded to reduce diffraction, and the cabinet is ported to the rear. The rear panel offers two sets of gold-plated binding posts for biamping/biwiring, plus a tweeter-level control that affects high-frequency balance and timbre. Four cast-aluminum feet (which can accept spikes) complete the structure, and wood-veneer finishes in cherry, sycamore, rosewood, or black ash help give the F50 considerable aesthetic appeal.What can we say about these masterpieces other than they are magnificent,... they capture the full range of sound imbedded in every recording. They breath life into any system with power, drive, pace and are unmistakably Revel.

The best subwoofer with commercial and residential support. Works flawlessly in studios, night clubs and high-end home-theater applications or high-end 2 channel configurations. This is a very serious sub with tons of adjustments to achieve the best sound in your location. Not very placement critical because of the adjustments and EQ built-in like no other sub I have ever used. As you guys may know Revel is a high-end company from JBL which has probably the best concert, nightclub speakers and amps in the world. This one is installed in my system and due to moving overseas I have to let it go. The original list price was $3395.00 I prefer local pick up because this sub is close to 105lbs without packing and 125 lbs. with proper box and protective parts. Will require a box at least 24x24x24. will have to go by freight, Below is the flat rate which includes insurance. Below is a comprehensive review on the B15. Revel Performa B15 Widely acknowledged as one of the countrys most talented speaker engineers, Revels Kevin Voecks is a veteran of small, specialty speaker companies, but he now enjoys the research and manufacturing resources of a nearly $3 billion parent company—Harman International—which also owns Lexicon, Mark Levinson, Infinity, JBL, BSS, Crown, Studer, and others.Measurements Frequency response at 80dB (Fig.1): 20–100Hz, +/-1.7dB; 24–100Hz, +/-0.5dB; –5.7dB at 18HzFig. 1: Frequency Response vs OutputFrequency response at higher levels: The response shape became less flat at progressively higher levels, with a bulge appearing at around 30Hz (see Fig.1). At the 105dB level, for example, output at 30Hz was nearly 4.5dB stronger than at 60Hz. Not surprisingly, support for the very lowest frequencies faded at the higher playback levels: No matter how much pedal I gave it, the 20 and 25Hz output levels were limited, presumably by the internal protection circuitry, to 101 and 107dB, respectively, during the 35-second sinewave sweeps.Dynamic range: The B15s most prominent measured idiosyncrasy turned out to be in the way it handled dynamics. The power compression curves in Fig.2 are all normalized to the 90dB response; that is, the power compression figures on the left (y-axis) show only the changes in the response relative to the subwoofers 90dB output. As shown in the 105dB (light green) trace, there was an unusual excursion into greater-than-unity values around 30Hz, indicating negative compression—i.e., amplification—of frequencies in this range. As I pushed the sub harder, the broad 30Hz bulge narrowed in span, drifted upward in center frequency to about 38Hz at the 115dB level (red trace), and moved downward, away from expansion (amplification) and into compression (attenuation).Fig. 2: Power CompressionThere was evidence of severe compression below 30Hz at the higher playback levels. This was probably the result of an internal sliding highpass filter intended to protect the driver from damage and increase its dynamic response above the filters corner frequency. This would seem consistent with the fact that the corner frequency moved up as I increased the drive level. The B15s swings, both positive and negative, away from linear dynamic response at the higher drive levels suggest a potential for introducing colorations, the audibility of which would depend on the nature of the program material.The shaped tone-burst chart (Fig.3) reveals in greater detail how much short-term peak output the B15 managed at various frequencies just prior to the onset of audible distortion.Fig. 3: Shaped Tone-burst Peak OutputTotal harmonic distortion: The relatively short vertical bars in the total harmonic distortion (THD) graph (Fig.4) reveal the B15 to have been well-behaved above around 40Hz, even at let-er-rip levels. In the octave below 40Hz, THD pushed well past 20% at the higher playback levels. The bars create something of a valley running from front to back at 40Hz, suggesting that program material in this range will be replayed especially cleanly.Fig. 4: Total Harmonic Distortion vs Frequency & LeveListening On the first selection, Jurassic Lunch, from Telarcs woofer-busting Great Fantasy Adventure Album CD, the dinosaurs final step at around 1:02 calls for high-level energy spread throughout the ground-shaking 10– 25Hz range. The Revel unit managed a peak of just under 100dB before distortion from this largely infrasonic event became an issue. Compared to the reference waterfall taken straight from the surround processors subwoofer output (Fig.A1), the one taken by a calibrated microphone 2m from the B15 turned up to just shy of the onset of audible distortion (Fig.A2) shows that the Revel unit was not able to replay much of the sub-20Hz energy, nor was it able to reproduce the above-20Hz content at a level to rival the more energetic subs in the survey.However, with the main left/right speakers reconnected, and the system hitting peaks of 110dB (with the sound level meter set to fast response and C weighting), the overall experience was realistic enough to have me recoiling in my lawn chair at the sound of the dino chomping and swallowing its squealing prey, emitting a valedictory belch, and clomping heavily away. Im not sure I would have wanted it any more real than that.The depth charges in U-571 (Figs.B1 and B2) were brought off credibly, if not shatteringly. They would have seemed more impressive had I not experienced the same passage a few minutes earlier on the much larger and more expensive Genelec HTS6 (see below). The difference was partly a case of peak level capability (the B15 topped out at 109dB, the Genelec at 122dB on this passage), partly a case of how much deeper the Genelec plumbed basss nether regions at the higher playback levels, partly a case of distortion levels, and largely a case of how all three of these factors played out in the perceptual domain. (Even a little bit more output capability in the lowest frequencies can be disproportionately important in subjective impact due to the way our ears operate as the frequency decreases.) It would take at least four Revel B15s to equal the HTS6s output on this track. That may sound like a disadvantage for the Revel, but consider that distributing two or more subs in a room would offer the very real prospect of generating a smoother overall pressure map due to the different efficiencies with which the subs couple to individual room modes.The fire-up-the-choppers scene a little more than 35 minutes into Black Hawk Down (Figs.C1 and C2), seen as vertical stripes in the waterfall plot, calls for sustained, high-level engine and blade throbs at around 7, 18, 31, 43, and 55Hz. No sub Ive ever measured has mustered enough grunt at 7Hz to have a hope of hitting the 103dB level required at that frequency to be barely audible. You can hear below 20Hz if the level is high enough. Human hearing does not suddenly cease at 20Hz, but the threshold is moved so high that very few devices can develop enough level to be audible to a listener 2m away. You might also experience some trouble with normal body functions in the presence of such energy! Its a different story at 18Hz, where the threshold of audibility is under 90dB. The B15 managed a peak of 101dB on this track before signaling distress. At that level, the 18Hz element wasnt perceptually present enough to create the in-your-gut effect that unlocks the scenes emotional power.The bass drum on the Casper soundtrack album (concentrated heavily around 42Hz) sounded full and crisp through the B15, seeming to lack visceral impact and unforced feel only in direct comparison with the best performers in the survey (all of which are substantially larger than the Revel)—and even then, the differences were rather minor.The Revel acquitted itself well on the remaining tracks. On Holly Coles Jersey Girl, from the Temptation CD, the string bass (strong down to about 35Hz on the program material, tapering off below that) sounded deep and firm, sans bloat or wooliness. Flight of the Cosmic Hippo, from Béla Flecks album of the same name, came across flawlessly, with a notably tight bass-drum sound, while the opening bass-drum whack in the famous Telarc recording of Holsts First Suite for Military Band (with peak energy just below 40Hz) was given near-textbook delivery up to 108dB, beyond which it progressively took on a soggy cardboard character, probably a function of distortion and compression.The Bottom Line The Revel B15 proved to be a capable performer at moderate to moderately loud playback levels, yielding little even to its most distinguished competitors. It began to lose its grip only under the most demanding, even punishing, circumstances. In fact, Kevin Voecks confirmed that Revels standard recommendation is to use two units for home theater installations.Under the microscope, the Revel Performa B15 doesnt take the prize in any particular performance category, but zooming out to see the big picture shows it to be a well-balanced package that should be short-listed for consideration in a variety of real-world applications. And the Revels three-band parametric equalizer, not reviewed here [but proven very effective in our first review of the unit, in our May 2003 issue—Ed] adds to the appeal of the overall package.SpecificationsRevel Performa B15 powered subwoofer in sealed cabinet of 1-thick MDF Driver: 15 Kevlar-pulp-and-alloy composite cone, 130oz magnet assembly, 4-layer voice coil with 3 of peak-to-peak travel, cast aluminum frame Frequency response: 20-80Hz, +/-0.5dB; –3dB at 18Hz Inputs & outputs: XLR (balanced), RCA (single-ended) Amplifier:1000W RMS Highpass filter: 30–80Hz, 12 or 24dB/octave Lowpass filter: 30–80Hz, 24 or 48dB/octave (defeatable) Phase: continuously variable, 0–180° Other: 3-band parametric equalizer, RCA and XLR pass-through outputs for looping to another B15 Weight: 105 lbs Dimensions: 20.2 x 20.1 x 19.6 (WxHxD) Finishes: black ash; add $300 for natural cherry or maple Price: $2995Revel (781) 280-0300 www.revelspeakers.comShipping for this item including packing, prep, pick up ext is a flat fee of $350.00 It has a weight of over 110 Lbs
