Loudspeaker fidelity depends on the following three factors: loudspeaker
accuracy, loudspeaker placement and listening room acoustics.
Advanced Revel design features allow the S206 to achieve exceptional
acoustical precision, and the ability to seamlessly blend with other
Revel Performa3-series speakers in 5.1- and 7.1-channel systems.
PlACement in 5.1-ChAnnel SyStemS
The most common 5.1-channel home theater system configuration uses
a pair of Performa3 S206 surround loudspeakers, placed on the side
walls above the listening area, as shown in the illustration below. The
loudspeaker’s radiation pattern is optimized for use at 90 degrees to the
sides of the primary listening area. This occurs when the loudspeakers
are placed along the side walls, directly to the sides of the prime
listening position (90 degrees to the prime listeners’ ears). The ideal
height is located at 10 to 15 degrees above the prime listener’s ears.
