ABOUT REVEL PERFORMA3 
FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKERS
Thank you for purchasing Revel Performa3 fl oorstanding loudspeakers. 
These true full-range loudspeakers feature small footprints and sleek 
designs, allowing them to blend-in easily with your existing décor. They 
deliver an impressive combination of wide frequency range, uncompressed 
dynamic range and low distortion across the entire audible spectrum. 
Revel F208 and F206 low-frequency and midrange transducers feature 
distortion reduction mechanisms that stabilize the fl ux fi eld during 
operation, assuring low distortion even at high listening volumes. These 
precision transducers utilize ribbed aluminum cones for ideal piston-
like behavior that eliminates a major source of resonances that are 
clearly audible in most other loudspeakers. Their cast aluminum frames 
eliminate another source of resonances that is common in many lesser-
quality loudspeakers. These loudspeakers employ a sophisticated fl uid-
model designed low-frequency port with identical fl ares on both ends. 
This greatly minimizes dynamic compression and port-generated noise, 
assuring low-distortion low-frequency performance. The front-fi ring port 
location expands the speakers’ installation options.
The F208 and F206 tweeter has been created around a newly-designed 
motor and dome assembly that sets a new standard of transparency for 
speakers anywhere near the Performa3’s class. The tweeter’s integrated 
acoustic lens waveguide is based on a breakthrough mathematical 
approach that accurately matches the tweeter’s dispersion to that of the 
midrange transducer in the crossover region. This gives the loudspeaker 
very smooth sound far off-axis – an important contributor to overall 
sound quality, providing consistent sound over an exceptionally wide 
listening area. In fact, this new waveguide actually increases the 
tweeter’s dispersion at higher frequencies.
The F208 and F206 are housed in enclosures that are similar to our 
fl agship Ultima2 Series. These fully-curved enclosures are inherently 
stiffer than conventional box shapes and are formed with contiguous 
wood layers that prevent splitting. They feature strategically-oriented 
bracing that eliminates the possibility of enclosure-induced coloration. 
These beautiful, modern enclosures are fi nished in high-gloss piano 
black or genuine American walnut in a process (developed and overseen 
by Italian luxury cabinet makers) that exceeds automotive fi nish quality. 
The loudspeaker grilles are designed to minimize sonic diffraction or 
veiling and provide a clean, subtle appearance. The magnetic grille 
attachment method completely eliminates ugly hardware on the 
loudspeaker baffl e, so if you decide to use the loudspeakers without 
grilles they will look like they were designed to be used without grilles.
Revel Performa3 crossover networks feature carefully-selected 
components that contribute to great performance and benchmark-
setting value. These high-order crossover networks dramatically reduce 
distortion and dynamic compression for clear sound that maintains the 
same quality over a very wide dynamic range. These precision networks 
optimize the speakers’ timbral accuracy, enhancing musical enjoyment 
for listeners who are anywhere in the room, not only those seated 
on-axis to the loudspeakers. The F208 network provides a calibrated 
high-frequency level control that allows precise fi ne-tuning of the sound 
while maintaining a very tight acoustic match between loudspeakers. 
Revel-designed binding posts are heavily gold plated and include an 
articulated section that allows for more secure connections when using 
spade lugs. The F208 includes two sets of binding posts that enable the 
loudspeakers to be bi-wired or bi-amped.
During development, every Revel loudspeaker model is compared to 
competitive models in our unique position-independent double-blind 
listening lab. This process utilizes the latest psychoacoustic research 
to assure that these listening tests are valid, enabling us to verify that 
all Revel loudspeakers are superior to their competitors before they are 
allowed to go into production.
