The Revelation Room - Our Mission

Our Mission

At The Revelation RooM, our focus is on musical reproduction in your home - not just in our showroom.

The sad truth is as audiophiles, dealers and manufacturers many of us have lost the passion and vision for high-end audio and its true goal. The raison d'être for The Revelation RooM is, in our own small way, to re-ignite the passion and bring back the excitement and fun. We apologize if you do not hear us recommending an upgrade or expand your system unnecessarily. Until a component makes a real difference and offers true value it shall not be represented or recommended by The Revelation Room. We are very wary of most reviews and reviewers and see them mostly as advertising copies and therefore we usually exercise our own discretion when reading them.

For years we have been pursuing this interest in audio because we are music lovers. But to say that the equipment that makes the music do not ignite a fire within us would be a lie. We love the components as much as the musical emotion they convey to us. After spending much effort, precious time (which should be spent listening to music) and resources we have come to realize, that like you, there was room for honest, dedicated and knowledgeable purveyors to serve those of us who share the same intensity for the high end. As a result The Revelation Room represents manufacturers who offer real breakthrough products whose value grows long after the price is forgotten. The components we value most are the ones that make us feel the emotions and moods – the experience if you will - of the performing artistes on the exact same day they made the recording. That is what great audio will do for us and we are confident for you too.

The high-end audio universe has revolved around many a myth and in recent years few, if any, brands have actually made strides in engineering excellence. In the early days of the high end, when a new product was launched there was real excitement and anticipation because everyone knew that we were about to witness something special. But in today’s scenario almost everyone has suddenly become the best in audio design espousing new technology and materials. A true trailblazer must first have a vision to handcraft the best he knows how. He would labour over it and lavish it with a true spirit of dedication. He would be a radical thinker and designer who will challenge and re-think common theory and wisdom. He would have his remarkable products evolve even further instead of one designed by an accountant in a huge corporation. These are the cutting edge refinements you will discover in our thoroughbred stable because we share a common philosophy with the designer.

If you have the time please visit the websites of our partners for the very select group whom The Revelation RooM represent in the Asia Pacific area.

We certainly hope that you, the music lover, visiting our website will share our passion. We look forward to getting to know you and your listening bias and if we are able to help you regain your passion and enjoy the music more then The Revelation Room would have succeeded.

Thank you and enjoy life.

Sean McCaughan of ESP Loudspeakers Visit To Singapore

The Revelation Room & ESP Loudspeakers

In the coming months The Revelation Room shall be very fortunate to be graced by one of audio’s most talented loudspeaker designer whose creations have been lauded by the industry’s cognoscenti and those of us who treasure the beauty of music reproduced flawlessly in the home. ESP (which stands for Esoteric Speaker Products) loudspeaker designer Sean McCaughan and his creations are as elusive as the mythical Unicorn and just as magical will be in Singapore for a brief visit and to fine tune two customers’ systems which comprise the Concert Grand SI – his finest musical transducer to date.

During his visit auditions at our music room, which has the Concert Grand SI on permanent display, will be made available exclusively to our customers for the first two days and then opened to the public for the next two so entrance will be limited and only for reservations made in advance. This is to provide a conducive and comfortable environment for everyone.

We are also taking advance orders for delivery in 6 months for the Concert Grand SI & the smaller Bodhran SE and if we are able to fly them in on time Sean will personally set-up the speakers in your home – a Revelation Room exclusive.

This is one designer you have to meet and not only to listen to his transducers but to pick up a few very valuable tips from a man who is renown for his loudspeaker set-up skills and mean any loudspeaker. Sean McCaughan cut his teeth with the legendary speaker designer Harold Beveridge of Beveridge electrostatic loudspeaker fame so he's no stranger to thinking outside the box.

Renowned mastering engineer Steve Hoffman has selected ESP loudspeakers for use in his upcoming LP, CD, and SACD mastering projects. Hoffman, who has mastered over 4,000 titles for such labels as MCA, BMG, Analogue Productions, Audio Fidelity, and DCC Compact Classics, is legendary for his ability to enhance the realistic presence of a master tape and preserve the artistic inspiration of recordings by many of the world’s greatest artists. Having heard almost all of the most famous high-end audio products, he approached ESP about using their speakers for his personal monitor because he feels they stand apart from other high-end loudspeakers.

Hoffman states: “I’m a music person first and foremost. I spend much of my time around live music and then working with master tapes trying to give them that same “breath of life”. When I first heard the new ESP’s I could immediately relate to the sound--lifelike in the extreme. ESP speakers are obviously built by a perfectionist who knows and loves the sound of live music. The new ESP’s let me hear all the detail on a recording, but in a musically persuasive way which sounds very close to live. At the same time, unlike many expensive high-end speakers, which sound too much like exaggerated “hi-fi,” I find myself able to listen to ESP’s without typical hi-fi fatigue during long mastering sessions, which is obviously critical in my line of work. I salute designer Sean McCaughan; he has always been one of the great speaker designers, but this time he has really outdone himself. While not inexpensive, the price of ESP speakers is quite fair, especially when one thinks about the amazing design and incredible build quality of these speakers. ESP is really a music connoisseur’s brand of speaker.”

If you feel you already own the best loudspeaker extant then you owe it to yourself to hear how the Concert grand SI makes music – naturally.
