OPTIMIZING PERFORMANCE
PORT PLUGS
Revel Performa3 bookshelf loudspeakers include a pair of foam port
plugs that can be used to adjust the loudspeaker’s low-frequency
performance in certain installation situations.
plugs that can be used to adjust the loudspeaker’s low-frequency
performance in certain installation situations.
If your loudspeakers are built into an entertainment center or shelving
unit, or if the loudspeaker is located less than about two feet (0.61m)
from walls or other large objects, inserting the port plugs into the
loudspeaker’s port openings can reduce the overly-aggressive bass
output that can be created by the speaker’s proximity to large surfaces
that reflect bass energy.

LOUDSPEAKER VOLUME LEVELS
The high-order filters employed in Revel Performa3 series loudspeakers
include steep cut-offs to reduce potential transducer damage from “out-
of-band” frequencies. Combined with carefully selected transducers and
filter network components, this approach helps the Performa3 Bookshelf
loudspeakers maintain their performance under extreme operating
conditions.

However, all loudspeakers have limits when it comes to continuous
playback. To avoid exceeding these limits, avoid playback at volume
levels that distort or strain the sound.

CARING FOR YOUR LOUDSPEAKERS
GRILLES
Revel Performa3 bookshelf speakers feature grilles with a magnetic
attachment method that eliminates unsightly attachment hardware from
the speaker baffle, so if you decide to use your speakers with the grilles
removed they will retain their elegant appearance.
