acoustic fantasy; lose yourself in
Tannoy’s new Revolution Signature
loudspeakers.

...YOUR OASIS

Distilling over 80 years of world­renowned musical excellence into a
loudspeaker of refined elegance and
impeccable pedigree, the Revolution
Signature is beauty in form and
function. The smooth curves, slim
profile and real wood veneers
disappear into a majestic, sweeping
soundstage. Music transcends the
boundaries of the listening environment
and transports you to your own
personal oasis.

Whether it’s the stunning ambience of
the Vienna Opera House, the smoky
atmosphere of a moody jazz club or
the livewire energy of a rock concert,
Revolution Signature delivers a truly
musical and involving experience.
Using the latest evolution of Tannoy’s

TM

acclaimed Dual-Concentric

drivers,
pin-point imaging and outstanding
dynamic accuracy get right to the
heart and soul of the music.

The sophisticated, smoothly curved
cabinets are hand-finished in fine
furniture grade wood veneers creating
graceful lines that integrate seamlessly
with traditional or contemporary
décor. W ith two finishes and six
models to choose from, the Revolution
Signature offers extraordinary musical
escapism at a real world price.

THE TECHNOLOGY

TM

DUAL CONCENTRIC
Tannoy’s Dual Concentric

Santana, placing the celebrated WideBand
musical integrity and exceptional instrumental accuracy. The driver’s rigid chassis and multi-point fixing further enhance the Revolution
Signature’s spacious, dynamic sound that thoroughly belies its elegant stature.

CURVED WALL CABINETS

While the curved wall cabinet gives
the Revolution Signature its unique look
and compact footprint, its beauty is
more than skin deep. With few parallel
walls, internal resonances and
reflections are all but eliminated

DRIVERS

TM

drivers have long been respected for their musical coherence and sheer visceral impact. From Sibelius to

TM

titanium tweeter at the heart of the rigid multi-fibre bass cone offers true point-source

creating a speaker with ultra-low
cabinet colouration. The design is
further enhanced with extensive internal
bracing and the use of Tannoy’s ingenious

TM

(Differential Material Technology)

DMT
to enhance resolution of fine detail.

AUDIOPHILE CROSSOVER

Low loss laminated core inductors
and audiophile-grade polypropylene
capacitors are used exclusively
throughout the Revolution Signature
crossover. This no-compromise
approach ensures the best possible
signal integrity to both the HF and LF

TM

sections of the Dual Concentric

driver.

OPTIMUM SIGNAL PATH

To minimise pathway signal
losses and reduce interaction
between individual components,
internal structure and component
topology is kept as simple as
possible . Th is attention to fine
detail runs throughout the Revolution
Signature design.

PRECIOUS METAL WIRING

Silver plated, high purity oxygen
free copper wiring is used
throughout the Revolution Signature
Range. This high-end cable
construction offers low loss, high
current signal transfer to ensure
every musical nuance is reproduced.

UNIQUE GROUNDING TERMINAL

Tannoy’s unique fifth speaker
terminal electrically earths the driver
chassis, dramatically reducing radio
frequency interference circulating in
the hi-fi system. Eliminating this
RF ‘noise’ brings substantial
improvements in mid-range clarity
and further enhances soundstage
spaciousness.

Revolution Signature is pure
escapism. A unique blend of

aesthetic majesty and stunning
acoustics with the power and
passion to transport you to an oasis
of sanctuary far removed from
today’s hectic lifestyles. From the
compact stand-mount DC4 to the
imposing yet elegant DC6 T,
Revolution Signature will bring music
to life in your living room. Coupled
with the horizontal DC4 LCR or DC6
LCR, the range can be configured as
a dynamic multi-channel system with
class-leading dynamics, power
handling and efficiency.

LIVE THE REVOLUTION

A statement of sensual style in Light
Oak or dark Espresso real wood
veneers, every Revolution Signature
loudspeaker is hand finished to the
highest degree. From the smooth
lines of the brushed metal trim to the
sculpted reflex ports and discrete
logo, the range is crafted to weave
its magic as much on the eye as on
the ear. Passion, performance and
precision 80 years in the making ­and more affordable than you might
think. Isn’t it time you escaped with

Revolution Signature?
