Figure 8. Wire gauge versus
maximum wire run (with a
maximum loop resistance of
0.07 ohms) for less than 0.2 dB
response error.
NOTE: “Loop resistance” is the
DC resistance measured at one
end of a loudspeaker cable, with
the other ends shorted together.    
CONNECTIONS
REVEL ULTIMA STUDIO loudspeakers can be connected to
your audio system in three different ways: single-wired, bi-wired or
bi-amplified. Please read the following three sections before pro-
ceeding with the actual connections. Also, be sure to observe the
following points:
• Use high-quality speaker cable with a maximum total loop resis-
tance (for each wire run) of 0.07 ohms or less. Use the chart in
Figure 8 below to determine the maximum wire gauge. 
NOTE: Bi-wiring does not reduce the effective loop resistance
of individual runs. Higher loop resistance will result in mis-
termination of the filter networks, and serious degradation
of sound quality. Use high-quality connectors on the speaker
cables. Consult your Revel dealer as to specific recommenda-
tions for your application.
• Turn off all audio system power before making any connections.
• Read the owner’s manuals that were included with your audio
components to confirm their connection procedures.
• Verify correct polarities (i.e., 
+
to 
+
and 
to 
) when making
connections. Failure to do so will cause poor imaging and
diminished bass response.
• For bi-wired or bi-amplified applications, remove the shorting
straps on the rear of each REVEL ULTIMA STUDIO loud-
speaker (refer to Figures 9, 10, and 11 on the next three pages).
