RBH Sound Inc. introduces Compact Theater,
a pair of new compact home theater
speaker systems that is available in either 5.1 or 7.1 configurations.
To date, RBH is the
first speaker manufacturer to offer a sonically matched
7.1 speaker system all in one
package.
With new surround sound formats like Surround
EX and dts-ES Discrete, RBH decided
to create an affordable and easy speaker solution. The standard
5.1 system is
comprised of four MM-4 satellite speakers for main and surround
channels, one C-4
center speaker and an MS-8 subwoofer. Just by adding another
pair of MM-4’s, the
consumer can easily upgrade at a later date to a 7.1 system,
or purchase the complete
7.1 package and immediately enjoy the sonic benefits of
a totally integrated and
matched eight-speaker system.
The Compact Theater systems are unlike any
mini home theater speaker systems
currently on the market. The enclosures for the center and
surround speakers are
constructed from a die-cast metal that makes the speakers
extremely inert and their
non-parallel sidewalls help eliminate internal standing
waves. Also, uncharacteristic to a
value oriented mini-system are the aluminum drivers. The
4-inch woofers found in the
C-4 and MM-4 and the 8-inch driver in the MS-8 are “true-blue”
proprietary aluminum
drivers, NOT polypropylene drivers that are painted to look
like aluminum.
To deliver that “pant leg ruffling” experience
every home theater enthusiast craves, you
need a powerful subwoofer—that’s were the MS-8 comes in.
Employing an aluminum 8-
inch woofer and a downward firing aluminum passive radiator,
this mini powerhouse
delivers impressive bass all the way down to 40-Hertz! The
subwoofer features an
internal 100-watt RMS amplifier, volume control, variable
crossover, and binding posts
for setup of the systems in a sub/sat configuration.
Mounting the speakers in your living area is
made easy using the threaded inserts that
are compatible with most universal mounting brackets. RBH
will soon offer their own
mounting brackets made especially for the Compact Theater
systems. The speakers
can also be stand mounted and are available in black or
white.
Suggested retail pricing of the Compact Theater is $999
for the CT-5, a 5.1 system, and
$1199 for the CT-7, a 7.1 system in black or white. The
system is expected to ship in 2nd quarter, 2001.
Since 1976, RBH Sound has been designing, engineering
and crafting high-performance loudspeaker systems, allowing them to provide
the tools necessary for
superior acoustic reproduction at sensible prices.
