Rocket RS250 MKII - Red Ebony
Note that the RS250 is still going strong. Only the Red Ebony version is retired.
| RS250 MKII - Red Ebony - SOLD OUT |
| Finish: Red Ebony - Limited Edition FinishOur Price: $699.00 pair |
| SOLD OUT/Retired These RS250MkII's are in a gorgeous limited edition finish - Red Ebony. The unique graining of Macassar Ebony wood with the red of Rosewood! This is a limited run only and will only be available while supplies last. What's new in MkII? The main changes here are new crossover networks and topologies that we’ve been working on for some time now. We’ve made some changes (mainly) to the woofer section, and this produces a more “controlled, or well-damped response" in both music and multi-channel configurations. The classic RS250 is more of a “hard driver” (in the lovely sense of that expression) while the new RS250 MkII is more “refined or controlled." Both are perfectly adept at 2-channel music, though equally at home in an HT environment. Featuring the Vifa Ring Radiator, the RS250 is unmistakably stellar at high frequencies, just as you'd expect from a speaker with such an extraordinary tweeter. But what might surprise you is the way the RS250--with its hefty custom 6.5" aluminum alloy long-throw cone woofer and an enclosure size of nearly 1000 cubic inches--handles all but the very lowest octaves with an authoritative slam that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. The RS250s have been carefully voiced to timbre match all of the other speakers in the Rocket line, but work especially well in home theater applications as rear-surround speakers in conjunction with the RS750 or RS550 floorstanding speakers and our RSC200 center channel. Two-channel music aficionados will love the way the superlative RS250s disappear into the soundstage, while home theater buffs who prefer the aesthetics of bookshelf speakers will find exceptional performance from the RS250s when used as front channel speakers in conjunction with a similarly-superior subwoofer such as the UFW-10. Want to wall mount your RS250s? Brackets such as those from Omnimount work quite well but you must drill holes in the cabinet. This will not void your warranty but you will be putting holes in that gorgeous cabinet! An alternative is to purchase the "Rocket LaunchPad" plate. Originally developed for the Rocket RS150/250 speaker stand, you can attach a mount to this plate instead of the speaker! It's shaped like the base of the RS250, 1" thick and black. The RS250 has threaded inserts built into the base. Using the supplied hardware, you bolt this plate to the speaker. If you use an Omnimount 30.0 'WB' style mount, you can attach the mount to this plate. It will extend out from the bottom of the speaker to the wall. No drilling into the cabinets! To order a pair of these plates for $20, call us and we will add it to your order! |
