    Tannoy Reveal ActivePublished on 05/30/12 at 22:56
    Tannoy Reveal Active’s really made my music louder if you know what I mean. Normally I mix with the volume way down but it was hard with a pair of these. I wanted to mix with them blasting just because for some reason when playing the music loud with these it sounds much better than my other monitors. I will say im not a fan of the blue ish tent they have. Plus I don’t think they even have any other colors that they have come out with. Most of my studio stuff are all the same color and these just stuck out like a sore thumb if you catch my drift.

    SOUNDS

    But if you are into sound, especially a big loud sound these will do the trick for you. You will have no problem turning these up to the max without it getting to bad sounding or blowing them. One thing to be aware of don’t have them too close to your monitor/ screen. The magnets in the Tannoy Reveal Actives can actually mess up your screen even if your screen is an LCD or not. It will make some discolouration over time and really damage your screen. You should have these up off of something anyways. Like some sort of a acoustic pad under them and keep them away from your monitor to achieve the best sound you can get. Also make sure you have them at eye or ear level for better mixing.


    OVERALL OPINION

    Overall, the quality of sound is great. But the price was a little to high for me to really want to keep them. The price of just one of these can get you a set of decent ones from a different brand. Not that the price is really that high but it was enough for me to return them. I would have not regretted my decision if the price was a little less.

    I shut my choice dgot fix a small promo interesting Yes but now more krk v4! Small budjet (600 max) I did not oblige the possibility to buy at full price so it is left for a growth of costs.
    I had the speakers for small medium size saw the config of my "home studio" and not powerful forcment trs (neighbors will apprcieront ;-)) preferences active, it so much easier.
    and the slogan LINEAR! (DSOL for lovers of Genelec)
    What's more if rpter give information by Tannoy:

    SOUNDS

    Homognes despite fairly sharp treble less than its sister my taste, the largest size V4 in the rponse suffers the serious NCESS a sub is less experience (fortunately considering the price of krk subs) even if the precision is not the same.
    Finally a warm sound that allows for hours of fatigue-free mix, a DEFINITIONS prcise and neutral (the graph shows a lump under 100Hz lgre another 800 and a hungry but frankly 6000 the cost ...)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought yesterday but I'm in love dj for the price Do not hesitate one second (~ 600) they are monitoring speakers nothing more but also nothing less, c ' is the model that my ears have prfr I trust them.
    Other speakers compare: Yamaha MSP SERIES, M-Audio (which I strongly deprecated), Fostex, Behringer the truth (is out there), Genelec (book of many styles prcis fond of big bass : hip hop & Co. DSOL but for me it is not monitoring)
    NB: my final grade is based on the ratio quality price
