Reveal Your Music, Your Way!

The new Tannoy Reveal 5A active near field monitor builds upon the success and recording industry reputation of the famous original Tannoy Reveal Active. When launched in the mid nineties, the Reveal Active was widely recognised as the product that defined the category and has been the active monitor of choice for thousands of amateur and professional recording, creative composition and postproduction facilities worldwide.

The original Reveal Active model was well renowned for its rigid cabinet and substantial baffle. With the new Reveal 5A, the cabinet is now smaller and has been further braced and refined to provide the most rigid platform possible for the new driver design. Securely attached to the solid baffle, with no less than 10 hex socket countersunk-head screws, the all-new bass driver performs with significantly reduced distortion. Extensive Klippell based symmetry analysis has made performance improvement possible, with the new driver providing tight, punchy and controlled bass response with a clean and open mid range for superb vocal intelligibility. A new soft dome HF unit with a powerful neodymium magnet extends high frequency to beyond 30kHz ensuring increased tonal accuracy of individual instruments in the reproduction process allowing improved EQ and placement decisions to be made.

Significant advances in digital speaker measuring techniques such as Klippell symmetry and non linear distortion analysis, laser scanning interferometry, acoustic CAD simulation, and precision manufacturing processes have all resulted in a comprehensively improved Reveal monitor. The new Reveal 5A provides greater bandwidth, significantly lower levels of distortion, smoother responses, more accurate phase control, and higher sensitivity levels in a smaller package.
