Owner’s Manual
INSTALLATION
CONSIDERATIONS
Loudspeaker fidelity depends on the following factors:
• Loudspeaker accuracy and placement
• Listening-room acoustics
But not all listening spaces can accommodate the ideal
conditions for these two factors. Therefore, careful
attention to the placement of your Revel in-wall and
in-ceiling loudspeakers will have the most significant
impact on the general performance of the loudspeakers.
The advanced design features of Revel loudspeakers
allow the Concerta in-wall and in-ceiling loudspeakers
to achieve the best possible sound quality in any listening
space. Revel loudspeakers also provide a level of control
not usually available over the sound of the speaker. The
Boundary Compensation switch and the High-Frequency-
Level control provide fine-tuning ability, even after the
speaker has been installed.
Boundary Compensation Control
The Boundary Compensation switch controls the level
of bass output of the speaker to accommodate for
the greater reflection of bass caused by a close
secondary wall.

When possible, avoid placing the loudspeakers within
two feet of an adjacent wall or ceiling. If the loudspeaker
must be placed less than two feet from a secondary
boundary (wall or ceiling), turn the Boundary
Compensation switch to the “On” position.
High-Frequency-Level Control
The High-Frequency-Level control allows for the fine-tuning
of the tweeter output level. This three-position switch
provides the listener with the ability to adjust the high-
frequency range for various acoustical environments.
Figure 2: IC65/IC80 control locations
The High-Frequency-Level control has three positions:
• Set the High-Frequency-Level control to the center
“0” position if the speaker will be used with the grille
on. This is the normal setting.
• Set the High-Frequency-Level control to the lower “–”
position if the speaker will be used without a grille.
• Set the High-Frequency-Level control to the upper
“+” position if an increased high-frequency level
is desired.
