Tannoy Turns On More Revolutions

26-Sep-99

Tannoy has effectively made Revolution a complete speaker range, following the introduction of two new models, the R2 and R3. The Revolution R1 was introduced towards the end of last year. Following exceptional reviews from the European HiFi Press, the R1 has already made a strong sales contribution for the UK based TANNOY. The two new models are floor-standing designs offering outstanding value for the money. Elegant real cherry wood veneer cabinets ate beautifully handcrafted using only the finest components. The front baffle is constructed from 22mm high grade MDF and the 18mm wrap provides the highest level of structural rigidity. All 3 models in the Revolution Series offer a host of features aimed squarely at satisfying the demands of the hifi enthusiast. An autoformer is used in the crossover circuitry of all Revolution models. This greatly improves damping and control of the tweeter by the amplifier, resulting in a more transparent top end performance. Sound quality is further enhanced because there are less crossover components needed and a reduction of soldered íjointsí in the signal path. All models are fully bi-wireable, and the terminals are gold plated for optimum signal path integrity. A tunable port offers the listener the flexibility of tuning the speaker to the room. There is a cavity at the base of the R2 and R3, which can be mass-loaded to enhance bass performance. Ideally suited for small to medium sized rooms, the R2 provides exceptional dynamic performance and power handling capability, ensuring a superb listening experience. Extraordinarily deep, fast and controlled bass, incredible mid range clarity and treble detail are the hallmarks of the larger R3, which is designed to operate in medium to large sized rooms. Each Revolution model combines the very best technical expertise, acoustic skills and cabinet making, offering a scale of specification and audiophile performance unparalleled at these prices.
