The Revel F226Be 3-way floorstander joins the award-winning PerformaBe series as a compact floorstanding speaker.
As part of the PerformaBe speaker lineup, the F226Be features a 1-inch (25 mm) beryllium tweeter powered by solid 85 mm dual ceramic magnets. The powerful tweeter and 5th generation ceramic-coated, cast aluminum acoustic lens waveguide seamlessly integrate with the directionality of the accompanying midrange driver, resulting in greater efficiency, improved dynamic range, reduced distortion, and increased power handling compared to aluminum or titanium tweeters.
Beryllium - Element 4 on the periodic table - is a rare earth metal known for its remarkable physical properties, making it the ideal material for a high-frequency transducer. Compared to aluminum and titanium tweeter diaphragms, Beryllium offers 4.5 times the stiffness and three times more damping, all while weighing only half as much. Beryllium tweeters are the centerpiece of the Revel PerformaBe speaker series.
The 5.25-inch (130 mm) midrange and dual 6.5-inch (165 mm) aluminum cone woofers utilize Deep Ceramic Composite (DCC) cones for improved performance. DCC is a plasma electrolytic oxidation process that uses a plasma discharge to create a coarse ceramic coating on both sides of the aluminum core. The deep ceramic layers surrounding the aluminum core provide limited cone damping, pushing the cone's breakup modes outside the passband, allowing the driver to maintain ideal piston motion across the entire range. DCC cones combine with optimized motor magnets to deliver improved performance in the mid and low frequencies.
PerformaBe crossover networks utilize all film capacitors and air core inductors in the midrange and tweeter circuits. With these premium components, Revel's world-class engineers can extract nuances and details from music that would otherwise be lost. Combined with Revel's traditional high-order crossover slopes and patented Acoustic Lens waveguide geometry, transducer integration is seamless.
The top panels of the F226Be are finished in stylish metallic black with raised electroform badges. The speakers are available in four high-gloss finishes for seamless integration into any interior: black, white, walnut, and metallic silver.
