Figure 8. Wire gauge versus

maximum wire run (with a

maximum loop resistance of

0.07 ohms) for less than 0.2 dB

response error.

NOTE: “Loop resistance” is the

DC resistance measured at one

end of a loudspeaker cable, with

the other ends shorted together.

CONNECTIONS

REVEL ULTIMA STUDIO loudspeakers can be connected to

your audio system in three different ways: single-wired, bi-wired or

bi-amplified. Please read the following three sections before pro-

ceeding with the actual connections. Also, be sure to observe the

following points:

• Use high-quality speaker cable with a maximum total loop resis-

tance (for each wire run) of 0.07 ohms or less. Use the chart in

Figure 8 below to determine the maximum wire gauge.

NOTE: Bi-wiring does not reduce the effective loop resistance

of individual runs. Higher loop resistance will result in mis-

termination of the filter networks, and serious degradation

of sound quality. Use high-quality connectors on the speaker

cables. Consult your Revel dealer as to specific recommenda-

tions for your application.

• Turn off all audio system power before making any connections.

• Read the owner’s manuals that were included with your audio

components to confirm their connection procedures.

• Verify correct polarities (i.e., + to + and − to −) when making

connections. Failure to do so will cause poor imaging and

diminished bass response.

• For bi-wired or bi-amplified applications, remove the shorting

straps on the rear of each REVEL ULTIMA STUDIO loud-

speaker (refer to Figures 9, 10, and 11 on the next three pages).
