RBH Enters New Price Category With The Introduction Of The Architectural Cinema Series

31-Jan-03

RBH Sound Inc. has introduced the Architectural Cinema Series (AC) lineup of freestanding loudspeakers. These new high-tech-looking loudspeakers offer RBH build and sound quality at a consumer-friendly price point.""RBH has long been viewed as a 'high-end brand,'"" stated President Roger B. Hassing. ""It was time we offered a more entry-level series with the same high quality as our other offerings at a more consumer-friendly price."" Thus the AC Series was born.The AC Series is a sonically matched home theatre loudspeaker system consisting of a pair of towers (AC-5T), center (AC-525), surrounds (AC-51), and a powered subwoofer (A-10S). All mid-bass drivers in the system use a polygraphite cone, which combines acoustic performance and affordability. The tweeters are 1-inch, high-quality fabric dome tweeters. The AC-5T employs three 5-1/4-inch mid-bass drivers for bass extension down to 45 Hz. The AC-525 uses two of the same 5-1/4-inch drivers for a seamless front soundstage, while the AC-51 uses one. The A-10S subwoofer features a 10-inch, Kraft Pulp driver, powered by an internal 150-watt amplifier, capable of bass down to 30 Hz.RBH sonically matched the AC Series to their existing line of A-Series in-wall and in-ceiling speakers for consumers who want the power and flexibility of tower speakers in the front, but want their surround speakers hidden in the walls or ceiling. The ""hi-tech"" styling of the AC Series is meant to complement many of today's more modern decors and also visually match the slim, futuristic cabinets of plasma displays. The AC's curved cabinet backs help to break up standing sound waves in the cabinet that can lead to degraded sound quality. Suggested retail pricing is as follows: AC-5T, $699 per pair; AC-525, $259 each; AC-51, $299 per pair; A-10S, $499 each. All speakers are available in black or silver and are expected to ship March/April 2003. For more information about RBH Sound, visit www.rbhsound.com.
