1. INTRODUCTION TO THE REVO SAT208P

Black rectangular electronic device with two side fans and ventilation grille (no visible text or symbols)

REVO is a compact two-way passive, line array system, intended for use in arrays with fixed curvature, up to six cabinets of 5/1208P. The REVO is a versatile loudspeaker system for medium & large Indoor venues, it is suitable in small and medium outdoor scale application, or as a delay tower for large scale sound reinforcement system.

The REVO was born for make a line-array with fixed curvature, with 100° horizontal & 40° Vertical coverage pattern, aim to simulate a coherent waveguide with six enclosure.

A main frame hardware defines the biting of the complete array system between 120°/25". The SAT20BP includes a dual angle pole socket, plus the accessory for a suspension option. It is easy to use integral rigging hardware, and give the possibility to assemble a max of 6 x SAT20BP in suspension or 1x SUB11BP plus 4 x SAT20BP in the same way as a single source. A high frequency selector is included in the passive crossover for giving you more flexibility to define an amplitude shading of the REVO. The OdB position is normally used to coverage the near field audience. The +3dB position is normally used to coverage the far field audience. The SAT20BP is normally used in Passive mode, and no restriction exist for use in Bi-Amp mode with the way of Passive Active selector. The SAT20BP is equipped with two custom high power B' Mid-Bass of the 2' sandwich copper voice coil on fiberglass former; and two 1"high frequency drivers with 1.4" voice coil of titanium diaphragm are used on double proprietary waveguide horn.

The High Frequency Configurator gives you the possibility to define the best sound pressure level in front of the audience. The HFC is included in the passive crossover and work only in Passive-Mode.

The +3 dB position is normally used for the SAT208P that work in array, for covering the more distant audience. The 0dB is normally used for covering the nearest audience.
