Quad Revela 1 & 2

Anybody taken the plunge on this relatively new offering from the Ribbon tweet guys? Sounds like they have developed some new driver material and refined the tweeter a bit? Lots of press releases but can’t find a review yet. Appears  the price point is the same as their other lines , S and Z. I have had both of those. Running the Z-4 now.  Could be another bang for buck offering from Quad.

I'm surprised there are no reviews yet but then, per dayglow's remark, Quad may not be willing to pay reviewers😂
Quad loudspeakers seem to not get much attention in general, for some reason.

I've owned Z-2 and S-2's and was quite impressed with them. The Z-2 was beautiful, sometimes maybe a bit too much so and could become a little boring after a while. I'm hoping these Revela's will be equally beautiful but with just a bit more excitement(?).

@dayglow I'd say the prices seem quite reasonable (if these do deliver what's promised) so no problem with these cost cutting measures😄 

i understand you do listen to Quad's electrostatic loudspeakers, it would be interesting to have reviews where these are compared especially in mid/high

That new True ribbon tweeter is what is emphasized by Quad but there was nothing wrong at all with the old one in the Z series to my ears. I'm more interested in the mid/bass with the "unique formulation of wood pulp and artificial fibres named ‘Reveal’ "
