Delivering room filling sound, the RS200 Wireless Loudspeaker System is our next generation home audio wireless speaker. Designed for a modern streaming lifestyle, it comes packed with virtually everything you need to enjoy music streamed from your handheld devices, digital music stored online or a local computer, or played from legacy audio sources. Even connect it to your TV for better sound.
The RS200 offers 650 Watts of total power that is delivered to 8 drivers consisting of (2) 4” x 6” woofers, (4) 2” midranges and (2) ¾” tweeters. In addition, a subwoofer output is included to connect an external powered subwoofer to further enhance low frequencies. As the RS200 can be placed in a variety of locations with unique sonic characteristics, a 3-position EQ switch allows you to set the EQ based on your room and listening preferences.
"Sound quality! It is a McIntosh through and through" offering "plenty of power to raise the roof, and delivers music with a wonderful smoothness." "Run the TV through it... feed some of your favorite playlists through it, sit back, and enjoy!" Those that have limited space for a quality home audio system "would be foolish not to look at the McIntosh RS200. Hell, don't just look at it. Stare at it for a while and listen to it with deep intent. I think you will find yourself as enamored with it as I was." - Positive Feedback
