RX6 Review by Stereophile
US based Hi-Fi magazine Stereophile offers authoritative reviews, informed recommendations, helpful advice, and controversial opinions across the publication so when the Silver RX6s came up for review we were ready and pleasantly pleased with the results. Read the detailed review in the current June 2012 issue. Here's a few snippets:
“Through the Silver RX6s there was a real sense of instruments popping out of nowhere to rest on a bed of air in a deep, wide concert hall.”
“The Monitor’s high-frequency reproduction enabled perfect integration of the fundamentals and harmonics of the trumpet; Wynton Marsalis’s instrument on his Levee Low Moan (CD, Columbia CK 47075) was startlingly realistic: The Monitor’s integration of the horn’s dynamic envelope, timbre, and harmonics inspired me to scribble in my notes: “That’s a trumpet!”
“The RX6’s high-frequency purity nicely dovetailed with its perfect rendition of crisp, clean, fast transients on recordings with percussive content.”
"It was an ideal match for every type of music, from delicate female voices and jazz trios to bombastic orchestral and electronic rock music. And its small footprint, attractive but unassuming appearance, and clean, extended bass performance make it an ideal home-theater speaker: one that obviates the need for a subwoofer."
"I can’t think of another affordable speaker that better meets such a broad range of needs.”

Gold award for RX6
"Its finish is impressive and appealing"
"...without any artificial stress in the upper register."
"The sound image is in relief and pleasant, the spectral balance
perfectly mastered from tonic bass to rich treble, the medium open and
remarkably articulate. Stereo Image is of high quality and sometimes
holographic"
"The dynamic is mastered without sacrificing subtlety in the translation of the phrasing. They provide class sound and music."

Silver Rx - RX6 - Review
"I could make out the subtlest sounds in every scene, from the faint
creaking and rustling of falling debris as the Sistine Chapel caves in,
to the gentle background chatter inside important-looking command
centres. If the devil is in the detail, then this system is Satan
himself."

Surround set-ups that put you in the heart of the action.

the subwoofer is spot on, and there's ample drama and excitement on tap
without any accompanying hardness or lack of composure."
