Dear Sir,
Thank you for your website, designs and hard work producing speaker
designs. I recently completed a pair of you Revelator 51s.
I’m breaking them in with my living room system, and I’m impressed!
For a set of compact bookshelf speakers, your design plays and sounds
very well. Smooth, without an elevated treble, great image depth and
soundstage. Good punch for their limited bottom end. Bravo!
My plan is to build several sets of Revelator 51s, and use them as
surround speakers in an immersive audio setup. Home theater too.
I’ve ordered parts from Jantzen for 4 more pairs of Revelators, and one
pair of your Ellipticor 3s. Those will be the main front speakers,
with 5 pair of Revelators used for a Dolby Atmos setup. Three
pairs on the listening level, two pairs for the height channels.
I’m excited to get started.
I’ve taken numerous photos of my construction progress. I used a
Felder sliding table saw, which made some of the building process easier
and more accurate. Had to build a jig for faceting the front
plates.
I used Jotoba (Brazilian Cherry) for the fronts, and 19mm Baltic Birch
for the rest of the cabinet. Shellac as a sanding sealer, hand
scraped, then wipe-on polyurethane finish. My local lumber seller
said the Jamara was the densest wood he sells, so used it instead of
HDF.
Pictures attached. Thanks again!
Judd
