Tannoy REVEAL 802 Active Studio Monitor

Tannoy REVEAL 802 Active Studio Monitor

The Tannoy REVEAL 802 is an active 8-inch studio monitor with dedicated low-frequency and high-frequency amplifiers.

Designed for nearfield monitoring at a typical listening distance of 0.75–3 m, it features a tuned front-firing bass port for greater placement flexibility near a wall. Frequency response extending down to 42 Hz supports evaluation of low-frequency content.

A 200 mm multi-fibre paper-cone driver reproduces low and midrange frequencies, while a 25 mm soft-dome driver handles the high frequencies. Separate 75 W RMS and 25 W RMS amplifiers provide 100 W RMS of combined amplifier power.

Connections include a balanced XLR input and unbalanced 6.35 mm and 3.5 mm inputs. The Monitor Link output and supplied 5 m cable can carry a stereo signal to a second REVEAL monitor. Three-position high-frequency EQ helps adapt the response to the room.

Main Features

• Bi-amplified design with a 75 W RMS low-frequency amplifier and a 25 W RMS high-frequency amplifier.
• 200 mm (8-inch) multi-fibre paper-cone driver reproduces low and midrange frequencies.
• 25 mm (1-inch) soft-dome driver handles high-frequency reproduction.
• Frequency response from 42 Hz to 43 kHz supports monitoring across a wide frequency range.
• Tuned front-firing bass port allows more flexible placement near a wall.
• Balanced XLR and unbalanced 6.35 mm inputs accommodate common studio signal sources.
• 3.5 mm AUX input supports direct connection of an audio interface, smartphone or audio player.
• Monitor Link output simplifies connecting two monitors for stereo playback.
• Three-position high-frequency EQ offers +1.5 dB boost, neutral and -1.5 dB cut settings.
• Vertical placement with the high-frequency driver approximately at ear height is recommended for uniform dispersion.
