REVIEW IntroductionOne of the most infamous small loudspeakers of the past decade must be the Tannoy Autograph Mini. It is unusual because it is not a design proper, but rather, at least superficially, a replica of a wardrobe-sized ancestor. Where one needed a building permit for the originals, the Minis are downscaled to some 20%, including a 4 dual-concentric driver. Costly. Seemingly absurd. But well-received, if one may believe the press.Far less costly, but in raw materials terms very similar to the Minis, are the Revolution DC4s under scrutiny here. A mere 27 cm tall and 16 cm wide, these 3.4 liter enclosures sport the 4 paper-coned dual-concentric driver that made its debut in the (even smaller) Arena lifestyle series. The DC4s would be tiny enough to invite wall mounting, be it for music or for surround in an AV environment, were it not that they are ported at their backs. Hardware for attaching a wall bracket is also conspicuously missing, but biwiring is present. I guess this typifies the intended audience, but it also signifies a missed chance, as with cleverer design decisions the DC4 could have ended up a more versatile product.Fit and finish are very good. The enclosures are real wood veneer, light oak or a dark brown espresso, but to my eye this wood looks strangely artificial. Not ugly, just ... unusual. OK then, so we have here a speaker that broadly the equivalent of an illustrious upmarket example, at one quarter of the price. Would its performance be downscaled as well?On a field tripI started deploying these little buggers as I imagined they were not likely meant to: in the lounge, on short heavy tables, at least 1 meter away from any wall, in the shadow of the ESL-63s, and driven by the Trichord-designed Michell amplifiers.First impressions were that the DC4s go much louder than the Quads (small wonder), and regardless of the actual volume they sound loud too. Entirely belying their dimensions they are indeed very outgoing and bold, thanks to an attention-grabbing forceful midrange that projects vocals and most instruments at the listeners. Despite this, the sound is not in-your-face. In fact it is entirely devoid of aggression and teeth-rattling artifice, testament to Tannoys careful tuning of the frequency response through the presence band, followed by a tapered-off treble (see further). This treble is decent, nothing more (hey, my daily diet is electrostatics), but never draws attention. Theres no sizzle, no spit, no headache. Good!The other side of the band is tuned even more deftly. With a 3 liter cabinet, an 80 mm driver, and that sensitivity there simply cant be much bass. But what there is, is tight and very well controlled. The range around 100Hz and above is shaped to exploit the missing fundamental effect very well, with the resulting illusion that most instruments are rendered quite convincingly, even though at times the sonics sheer mass can be missing. Still, the DC4s pull off this trick neatly.Trying to catch it out I threw small-scale classical, rock concerts, action movies, and even Massive Attack at the DC4s, and I never really felt let down. These Tannoys can play quite loud (our room is 4 x 8 meters, with a wide passage to another 4 x 8 space), and do so without obvious distortion. They never turn shouty, only gracefully compress at levels I am normally not using. All the time their sound refrains from turning thin or bleached out. In fact the tonal balance is well-judged to my tastes, i.e. slightly warm and musically inviting, without the highly-lit treble so typical of many a modern speaker design. I found the Tannoys tonal balance easy to live with, in fact close enough to my Quads not to cause a culture shock. I read two other reviews of the DC4, that call it cool and icy. I cant agree, finding these Tannoys well-judged and far from steely. It is true that their sound is very clean indeed, and a bit mid-prominent. Perhaps this is interpreted by cool by some?Of course the DC4s are not uncoloured. Compared to the Quads there is a fair amount of colouration, mostly a thickening and a bit of cuppiness. But with a little psycho-acoustic acclimatisation this quickly becomes easy enough to ignore. It could be that paper cone paying off, as plasticky and quacky sounds are entirely absent.Detail is good, a lot of the recording is heard in an explicit way. Yet resolution is somewhat limited, as if below a certain level the sounds get sucked up into a vacuum. Stereo imaging is a bit diffuse and unstable, but I must say that I only have had good experiences with dipoles in our room, and neven really with direct radiators (our future listening room will hopefully cure this).My standards may be slipping (due to family/work issues I hardly listen to music these days, outside of my cars iPod-fed Bose-merry-go-around-system that is), but used in this position the Tannoy DC4 must be the cheapest speaker I can live with for a long term. This accolade used to go to the original Quad 12L, which at 700 Euro cost a lot more. I think this is quite remarkable, even though the cost of the rest of the system makes the achievement somewhat academic.Up against the wall ...These results were very encouraging, but no-one would feel that the system, room, or positioning employed represent the typical scenario for small entry-level loudspeakers. So I moved the two into the office. Placed on an equilateral triangle with 2 meter sides, their backs hard up against the wall (actuall a glass-fronted floor to ceiling book cabinet) the Tannoys were asked to perform with a Cyrus One and Rega Planet, spanning a quarter century of UK audio engineering.This setup then proved unexpectedly disappointing, with an overly rounded and ill controlled mid-bass. The midrange, so beautifully presented in the large room, was now clouded and thickened, suffering under the excessive lows. Overall neutrality suffered. On small-scale classical music there was the irritating effect of instruments ground tones moving in and out of the speakers passband. This drew attention, to detrimental effect to the actual music. Loud passages hardened the midrange somewhat, probably the old Cyrus running out of steam. What was before a great little speaker now was a profoundly mediocre one.So I plugged the bass ports at the back of the speakers and listened again. It pleased me to find that this was significantly better, with the sound restored to something quite close to the earlier experience in the lounge. Just the hardening in loud parts remained. Quite why Tannoy voiced the DC4s for open-space use is a mystery, though. Perhaps the designers injected too much Autograph Mini genes, cloning not only the main dimensions, but also a splash of prima donna behaviour?... and back to the ColosseumI left the speakers alone for a while and then moved back into the lounge. The DC4 immediately disappointed somewhat... But within minutes they drew me straight into the music again. And thats their strength. The Tannoys are not without flaws, but when properly sited they never fail to communicate the music in a most convincing way, and that is what this is about, not?A comparison with my KEF Q Compacts was deemed mandatory. These were KEFs entry-level coaxial speakers in 2005-2006 and apparently the equivalent of the DC4s. Only apparently because the KEFs were significantly cheaper (around 300 Euro if I remember correctly) and larger, with a 6 liters internal volume and a 5 Uni-Q driver. I bought them back then because I wanted something small to carry around and because they came with a rave review in HFW. I have them as utilities, not for serious listening.Substituting the KEFs for the Tannoys in the exact same positions brought a gain in air and apparent transparancy, the price paid in the form of a busier, less composed sound, with less bass too. The impression was of competence without being special. Returning to the DC4s indeed brought back the warmth in the sound, a deeper and more solid bass fundament (!), and overall more roundness. The KEFs were not bad, but the Tannoys really were very much better.MeasuredI used XTZs handy Room Analyzer system for a couple of in-room measurements. Below is the response of a single DC4 on a 50 cm high stand in free space, as measured from a 40 cm distance, and with fast gating of the signal. This means that the first and later room reflections are suppressed, giving a nominally anechoic measurement. The price to pay is a severely reduced resolution below 300Hz or so.This measurement was done twice, with the bass port open or plugged. The depression between 2 and 4 kHz correlates with the speakers sweetness and lack of aggression. The wild switchbacks in the treble are typical for horns, and not really to worry about.The measurement was repeated, now with the speaker mere centimeters from the back wall and at a one meter distance. Predicable this gives a lumpier bass, with significant boost below 200Hz. Plugging the port then indeed redresses the balance somewhat.ConcludingIf some of you have a deja-vu, then maybe because the above reads as a review of the Autograph Mini, or of the 603, Tannoys tiny mini that got raves twenty years ago. So be it. The Tannoy DC4s are not universally applicable, demanding a good system and a lot of space around them. But give them that, and they perform most admirably. I liked them a lot.Systems UsedBlack stuff: Michell Orbe/SME IV/Lyra DelosPhono stage: DIY ChangelingSilver stuff: Denon DVD-2930 + Apogee MiniDAC, Rega Planet (1996)Preamp/poweramp: Michell Orca NC / Alecto Stereo MkII, Cyrus One (1988)Cables: yesSpeakers: Quad ESL-63, KEF Q-Compact

You are bidding one 1 Tannoy Revolution Signature DC6 LCR Speaker in Espresso. This center channel is in absolute MINT condition. The speaker is in 100% working and cosmetic condition. The speaker also comes with the table top stand. This is an EXTREMELY RARE speaker! We will ship this speaker to US buyers for free. The subject of our review is the £800 per pair DC6, which is based around the larger 150mm dual concentric driver, mounted in an attractively finished and interestingly shaped enclosure. Of the real wood veneer options, Espresso is currently proving the more popular by a significant margin.Espresso might well be the height of current cabinetwork fashion, but the same cannot be said for a wood veneer which has a resolutely matt finish.Speaking personally, I think this type of surface treatment (probably originating from Eastern Europe) looks much more natural than the typical high-gloss approach that seems to be favoured by Far Eastern sources.Inside Tannoys speaker setThe cabinet encloses a volume of 11 litres, and is loaded by a port at the front, below the solitary dual-concentric drive unit. Although the front panel is wide enough to accommodate the 150mm drive unit, the back panel is exceptionally slim - only just wide enough to accommodate the strip of five terminals.Although the front and back are flat and parallel, with the top and base likewise, the sides are formed into a tight curve so the depth corresponds quite closely to the width. This has the multiple advantages of stiffening the sides, spreading out the horizontal standing waves and dispersing reflections.The five terminals? One pair feeds the bass/mid, another pair the tweeter, while the one left over is connected to the drive unit chassis. Like a similar feature found on Tannoys more upmarket Dimension and Prestige models, the idea is to allow the chassis to be earthed back to the amplifier in order to reduce RF interference.But theres little evidence of cable brands making appropriate five-conductor speaker cables available, so the features practical relevance must be questioned.A refined designTannoys famous dual-concentric driver began life way back in 1948 and, in various forms, has been a cornerstone of the companys loudspeaker technology ever since.A co-axial drive unit, which places a horn-loaded tweeter down the throat in the middle of a bass/mid cone, shows how the concept continues to be refined and developed with a shorter tulip waveguide and much modified tweeter.Built on a 150mm cast alloy frame, the flared doped paper bass/mid cone is 115mm in diameter, driven from a high-power-handling 44mm edge-wound voice-coil. The 25mm diameter tweeter has a titanium dome just 25 microns thick, with a claimed extension to 54kHz.The crossover point is set at 1.8kHz, with a second-order roll-off feeding the bass/mid section and a simple first-order feed to the tweeter.Frequency responseUnder our in-room far-field measurement regime, the DC6 comfortably met its 88dB sensitivity rating and did so alongside a relatively straightforward nominal impedance of 8 ohms, with an easy-to-drive minimum at around 200Hz. However, the pair match between our two examples was not particularly close, which is a little disappointing.Although the port tuning is 50-55Hz (depending on the sample), a frequency which usually leads to some mid-bass excess in our test room, our measurements reveal a surprisingly dry bass alignment.When the speakers are mounted on open 60cms stands well clear of walls, relative output rolls off very gently and progressively below 200Hz.Close-to-wall sitingsClose-to-wall siting fills in the midbass zone very nicely, lifting it up to match the broad, slightly projected and impressively smooth and even upper midband and presence, though there remains some lack of output through the upper bass and lower midband.These measured findings were clearly reflected in the listening results. Close-to-wall siting normally leads to a clearly audible increase in voice band coloration, but that didnt seem to be the case here.With their backs to the wall, the DC6s somehow seemed to dissociate themselves entirely, sonically speaking, from the stereo soundfield they were creating.There is, perhaps, an associated reduction in stereo-image depth, but this is only mild in degree and did little to spoil the party (especially since such depth is usually an artificial studio construct).Expressive vocalsThis Tannoy isnt perfect by any means, but it does the most important things very well indeed.The bass is smooth, clean, even and fast, with no evidence of thickening or overhang. And if ultimate weight and extension is somewhat limited, thats hardly unexpected in a compact standmount.The voice band is particularly impressive, too, sounding attractively open, expressive and coherent, with the sort of delicate and subtle detail that seems to be a feature of well-behaved paper cones. The top end is very well-judged, too ,if anything erring a little on the side of restraint, which is arguably better than tending to draw unwanted attention to itself.Orchestral soundsThis is a speaker that knows how to rock and roll, as timing is invariably excellent. Few bands have ever made greater demands on timing precision than Little Featstykes and on these speakers the live Waiting For Columbus album builds superb tension throughout.Orchestral material is equally effective, the texture of massed strings reproduced with a realism that is thoroughly convincing.Brass instruments are amongst the most difficult to handle, with a tendency to sound aggressive, but happily the Tannoys are smooth as well as forward, so brass has good punch and vigour but avoids sounding over the top.
