help Revel M105 FAQ
Does the Revel M105 need a subwoofer for full-range music?
The M105 is a compact two-way Performa3 speaker, so it cannot reproduce the deepest bass with the authority of a floorstander. For electronic music, film effects, or a large room, pairing it with a well-integrated subwoofer such as a Revel Performa3 B110 can extend the system substantially.
Can the Revel M105 be used as a nearfield studio monitor?
Yes, although it is a passive loudspeaker and therefore needs a separate amplifier rather than an audio interface alone. Its controlled-directivity waveguide and neutral voicing suit critical listening, but placement and room correction still matter at a mixing desk.
What amplifier works well with the Revel M105?
The M105 has a nominal impedance of 8 ohms, but a capable amplifier with stable current delivery is still preferable. Integrated amplifiers from brands such as NAD, Rotel, and Cambridge Audio are common matches, with the required power depending mainly on room size and listening distance.
How is the Revel M105 different from the larger M106?
The Performa3 M106 uses a larger woofer and cabinet, giving it greater bass extension and output capability. The smaller M105 is easier to place on a desk or in a compact room while retaining Revel's waveguide-based approach to consistent dispersion.
