The next time you sit down to watch a movie at home, think of the possibilities these speakers present. The RBH SI-6100 Reference monitors are part of RBH’s CinemaSITE custom cabinetry that takes home theater entertainment to another level.
Granted, these speakers take a special level of interest and investment – this is not a free-standing system for the average consumer. The high-quality columns each weigh 63 lbs., with four 6-1/2” woofers and three 1” dome tweeters, carrying a frequency response between 45Hz and 20 kHz, with a choice of white or black grille. The fiberboard cabinets are meant to be incorporated into a seamless wall design for aesthetically-pleasing, high-quality sound.
The CinemaSITE system combines a 16:9 projection screen and a floor or ceiling mount SI-12 subwoofer with these speakers that can handle 500 Watts of power. Witness the impact of on-wall speakers in your home viewing experience.
Utah-based RBH is no stranger to award-winning audio design, winning Best Sound in Show for its Signature Series components at the Consumer Electronics Show in 2001. Their 25-year legacy building high-end loudspeakers and components is frequently recognized by industry experts.
Lamborghini introduced their latest roadster at the Geneva Motor Show this month, and what a beauty it is. The Murciélago LP 650-4 Roadster is a 6.5 –liter, 650 hp, V-12 topless monster that pulls 487 lb-ft of torque through its paces for a 0-62 mph sprint in 3.4 seconds. Only 50 will be made, so maxing this baby out at 205 mph on the way home will remain a privilege for the lucky few.
A gorgeous grey and orange Grigio Telesto body design is matched with a stitched leather interior, orange colored brake calipers and a transparent engine bonnet for a peek at the horses. Everything about this car says style, and as the last of the Murciélago series takes shape this year, along with the LP 670-4 SuperVeloce, the LP 650-4 will surely become an instant classic for collectors.
The Nokia N95 is the current smartphone of choice, and the recent release of an 8GB model is making waves in the industry, with impressive, in-demand features like Windows 3.1, 8GB internal memory, GPS, MP3/Video player, 5 MP Carl Zeiss optics digital camera, slide-out keypad and glossy black finish, with a slightly larger screen than its 160MB predecessor.
The 8GB offers full compatibility with Nokia’s 3G networks, which significantly improves download speeds and access to reliable networks and hotspots. Initial reviews have brought the phone high marks, and the suggested MSRP between $400 and $700, depending on where you buy one and what services you assume, keeps the phone within reach for busy executives and data-conscious consumers.
