Revel Ultima2 Gem2 - ranked #33 of 188 Large Size Bookshelf Speakers · Editor's rating 4.4/5

#33 Revel Ultima2 Gem2: $9,998 per pair Discontinued eBay

Matching center: the Revel Ultima2 Voice2 (rated 4.3/5).

Pros: A three-way stand-mount with a 1” beryllium tweeter, a 4” titanium midrange and an 8” titanium woofer. Revel’s measurements show an exceptionally flat on-axis response (0.11 average deviation), for a preference score of 5.75 that reaches 8.56 with an ideal subwoofer.

Cons: Bass rolls off at 77Hz (-3dB) and about 51Hz (-10dB) in that data, so it benefits from a subwoofer. Sensitivity is low at 86.4dB and impedance dips to 3.4 ohms. The data comes from Revel. Discontinued.

How it compares: Just above it: ELAC Vela BS 403.2 - $6699 cheaper, 0.4Hz lower bass extension (-3dB). Just below it: Perlisten R4s - $7803 cheaper, 0.1Hz higher bass extension (-3dB).
