Revolution DC4LCR Features:

Audiophile crossover – Low loss laminated core inductors and audiophile-grade polypropylene capacitors are used exclusively throughout the Revolution range. This no-compromise approach ensures the best possible signal integrity to both the HF and LF sections of the Dual Concentric™ driver, enhancing the pin-sharp imaging and point-source musical integrity for which Tannoy’s ‘Dual’ driver is famed.

Optimum signal path – To minimize pathway signal losses and reduce interaction between individual components, internal structure and component topology is kept as simple as possible. This attention to fine detail runs throughout the Revolution design.

Precious metal components – Silver-plated, high purity oxygen-free copper internal wiring and chromed speaker terminals are a true high-end feature of the Revolution range. These exotic components offer low-loss, high current signal transfer to ensure every musical nuance is reproduced

Trapezoid cabinets – Giving Revolution its distinctive look and compact footprint, the trapezoidal cabinet design reduces internal resonances and reflections. Tall, yet slim and elegant the DC6T cabinet features the latest (150mm / 6.00in) Dual Concentric™ driver and an auxiliary (150mm/6.00in) bass driver for added bass extension and low frequency impact. The acoustically ideal from of the trapezoid cabinet and extensive internal bracing enhances rigidity, reduces internal reflections and delivers incredibly low cabinet colouration.

Tannoy’s Dual Concentric™ drivers have long been respected for their musical coherence, precision and detail. The Revolution range incorporates an ultra compact (100mm / 4.00”) but high powered and wide bandwidth version of Tannoy’s world renowned proprietary driver technology. The unit combines a multi fibre paper pulp low frequency cone and a titanium domed tweeter unit with a neodymium magnet system offering true point-source musical integrity and exceptional instrumental accuracy. The driver’s rigid chassis and multi-point fixing augments Revolution’s spacious, dynamic sound that thoroughly belies its elegant stature.
