t the heart of our powered subwoofers is a proprietary aluminum cone 

driver.

*

  The special aluminum cone material combines stiffness, low 

mass and self damping properties producing superior definition and accuracy 

of bass frequencies.  A powerful magnet, extended voice coil and bumped back 

plate give the driver high excursion capability allowing high output capability 

and accurate dynamic reproduction.

All RBH powered subwoofers incorporate discrete class A/B analog power 

supply amplifiers ensuring low distortion, high current output and proven reli-

ability.  Variable crossover, adjustable phase control and auto on/off are also 

used for convenience and easy integration with other speakers.  Connectivity 

is made easy by allowing the subwoofer to be connected by either intercon-

nect (line level) or speaker wire (high level).

Cabinets  are  constructed  from  MDF  and  braced  internally.    Sophisticated 

computer modeling and measurement techniques are used extensively in the 

RBH loudspeaker design process.

  

TAV

 stands for Tuned Aperiodic Vent. This technology allows a 

smaller cabinet volume to be used for low frequency response without the 

need for large passive radiators and multi thousand watt amplifiers. By us-

ing TAV

 

Technology, your subwoofer is able to incorporate two woofers in 

a relatively small enclosure with increased performance. TAV

 bridges the 

gap between vented and sealed enclosure subwoofers, providing better low 

frequency extension and efficiency than a similar sized sealed system. TAV

 

technology shifts the vent tuning to a much lower frequency than would oth-

erwise be possible in a small vented enclosure and also improves transient 

response. The model 1212-SE and MS-10.1 offer TAV

 Technology.
