chaps,

i had the pleasure of meeting a gentleman from accross the pond last week whilst at the cedia uk show, he introduced me to a brand of speaker RBH.

has anyone used them?

he didnt have any amp/cd kit so i couldnt get a demo on them, but curious to hear them i thought i'd ask you guys if you've a) heard of them and b)heard them play.

and if you have, waddya think? sound excellent / ok / not so good

any thoughts / comments appreciated.

muchos thanks,
Jonathan

I've used RBH for the last couple of years. Sound quality and build quality are very high. The in wall and in ceiling products are well made for their price points and we've used a lot of them in lower to mid range systems. We haven't used the Signature series yet because we are Triad dealers, and tend to spec that instead.

With RBH being imported, how do they compete with the home grown UK brands on price. I've always had a fondness for British speakers (KEF,B&W,Celestion),and have owned more pairs of your imports than our U.S. made brands.

I guess the grass is always greener on the other side of the pond.

I have been dealing with RBH for a few years and I like most of all their product line. I am impressed with the speakers and the company handling my orders or issues. I am not impressed with their website and the lack of updating.
If I could get B&W locally at a good price, they would be at the top of my list. I can imagine that importing a set of t2s across the pond would cost a lot of euros.

Have you tried and Dynaudio products?

I owned the CT 5.1 system for a while it was a pretty nice system for small speakers.
really sounded nice at volume. The sub was a buit wimpy for my likes but the system overall was well worth it's price point.

maybe we ought to have a bit of a deal going ... i ship a container full of B&W speakers and you sort me out the same of RBH? hehehe ;o)

the sales chap offered me a very nice deal with these speakers so i think i might take up his generous offer and purchase a pair ... now i've just got to convince the missis that we ought to have some in our house - just for 'demo' purposes you see ;o)

thanks chaps, you've been a real help.

ummm wha? huh? ohhh ... ok sure.

Cherri - o !

Just installed a pair of RBH outdoor speakers last week. Sounded pretty good so far. Selling point for this customer was the waterPROOF, verses water RESISTANT. Not that he'll be dunking them in the hot tub, but was stil the selling point
