Revel PerformaBe Surround Speaker System Review Test Bench

Test Bench

The in-room measurements presented here were made using the Omnimic measurement system from Parts Express. The microphone was positioned at ear height and the speakers (and subwoofers) set up as described in the review. Measurements are for the left channel only and were 1/6th octave smoothed. The microphone was positioned for a single reading at ear-height in the listening chair. Prior experience has indicated that for my room and setup, multiple positioning averaging rarely does more than smooth out small ripples in the response curves.—TJN
