RBH 61-SE Measurements

by Gene DellaSala last modified February 16, 2007 05:39

Bottom Line: I can without a doubt recommend these speakers for those who are looking for an attractive, dynamic, high performance compact loudspeaker system, with excellent bass capabilities, imaging and tonal balance for a very reasonable price tag.

Frequency vs Impedance and Phase Plots

The frequency response graph is a near field woofer response summed with a 1 meter on tweeter axis response that has been 1/3 octave smoothed. This graph does not include the port response which has its maximum output at 49 Hz as indicated by the woofer response dip at 49 Hz.

The impedance graph includes magnitude and relative phase. The smooth plot represents phase scaled in the right vertical axis. The bumped plot represents magnitude of impedance scaled in the left vertical axis.

The Score Card

The scoring below is based on each piece of equipment doing the duty it is designed for. The numbers are weighed heavily with respect to the individual cost of each unit, thus giving a rating roughly equal to:

Performance × Price Factor/Value = Rating

Audioholics.com note: The ratings indicated below are based on subjective listening and objective testing of the product in question. The rating scale is based on performance/value ratio. If you notice better performing products in future reviews that have lower numbers in certain areas, be aware that the value factor is most likely the culprit. Other Audioholics reviewers may rate products solely based on performance, and each reviewer has his/her own system for ratings.
