General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Fritz Rev 5 or Carbon 7

I've built the Carbon 7's for about 12 years now & only recently started showing the REV 5's at the trade shows so not very many people have heard the difference between the two. Both models have very good low bass response. The FS, free air or resonance frequency of the Carbon 7's ScanSpeak driver is 28Hz, the smaller REV 5's Revelator 5.5 driver is 30 Hz! Many 10 & 12 inch drivers do not have this low of FS spec.

Both models share the same tweeter, the REV 5's have a lighter & faster mid/bass driver and have more mid/range definition, the Carbon 7 driver does have a little more punch. Both have a very similar sound.
