Revel's exclusive "in-wall mover"
allows true comparisons of in-wall
and in-ceiling loudspeakers with their
competitors. Double-blind tests prove
the sonic superiority of every Revel
in-wall and in-ceiling model before they
are released for production. Music lovers
can choose Revel in-wall and in-ceiling
loudspeakers with confidence in the
knowledge that they will provide an
unsurpassed musical experience.

Proven Performance
To maximize the performance of the Concerta IC80, IW65 and IC65
loudspeakers, Revel engineers relied on precise measurements of their
on- and off-axis response in an anechoic chamber from 36 separate
angles. In addition, to be certain of their sonic performance the
speakers also underwent unique double-blind listening tests to literally
prove their sonic superiority over their competition. Music and film
sound lovers can rest assured that their Revel loudspeakers provide the
best sound in their category.
Flexible Placement Options
With a boundary compensation switch to maintain accuracy in
installations near secondary walls, and a level control to maintain
tweeter response with or without grilles, the IC80, IW65 and IC65 can
be easily positioned and optimized for any listening environment.
As a complete in-wall home theater system, as the surround speakers
in a hybrid system with Ultima2, Performa or Concerta front speakers,
or as stereo pairs in music and multi-room systems, these are audio-
phile-quality architectural loudspeakers in the proud Revel tradition.
High-Order Crossovers
The Concerta crossover networks are far more sophisticated than those
used by most competitors. Featuring high-order crossover slopes, the
Revel Concerta crossovers contribute to a wider dynamic range and
lower distortion than lesser loudspeakers. The crossover components
are also of a higher standard than those found in most loudspeakers;
employing only premium components mounted on rigid FR-4
glass-epoxy composite circuit boards. Air-core and laminated-steel
inductors introduce less distortion than their more commonly used iron
or ferrite-core counterparts. The film capacitors in the tweeter network
exhibit lower parasitic losses than less-expensive electrolytic capacitors.
Concerta’s precisely-machined gold-plated terminals better ensure
reliable connections.
Genuine Revel®Sound
Revel was founded in 1996 with the straightforward, if immodest,
goal of building the world’s finest loudspeakers. We began
by doing our homework – finding ways of measuring sound
reproduction under laboratory conditions that more perfectly
replicate a wide range of home listening environments. As a
result of Revel's unparalleled resources and continuous quest
for superior sound quality, Revel loudspeakers have become
known as the "reference standard" throughout the world.
With the Concerta IC80, IW65 and IC65, Revel introduces an
affordable new series of architectural loudspeakers
worthy of the Revel name. Engineered to the same
standards as traditional Revel systems, using only premium
quality components, and subjected to the same battery of
tests in our proprietary Multichannel Listening Lab, Concerta
in-wall and in-ceiling speakers are designed by serious
listeners for serious listeners.

Resonance-Free Woofers
Powerful, realistic bass is often a disappointment with in-wall
loudspeakers. But the Concerta IC80, IW65 and IC65 employ
sophisticated motor systems with long-throw rubber surrounds
to deliver tight, uncolored low-and mid-frequency sound at high
output levels. Micro Ceramic Composite (MCC) woofer cones and
heavy, die-cast woofer frames eliminate potential resonances that
could otherwise cause audible distortion.
More Responsive Tweeters
The Ferrofluid® -cooled MCC dome tweeters feature
integrated waveguides for greatly improved off-axis
system response, resulting in a seamlessness unheard
of in architectural loudspeakers. A pivoting mount
allows the tweeters to aimed as dictated by the shape
and seating arrangement of the listening room to
further optimize the high frequency response.
