Our Review

Introduction

The RBH Sound UNRIVALED SFTR/AX is a modular speaker system designed to deliver a reference-grade, audiophile experience. With both passive and fully active versions available, this system offers flexibility in configuration and placement. Featuring active DSP crossovers and other performance-enhancing technologies, the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX aims to provide exceptional precision and clarity in sound reproduction. RBH Sound, known for their commitment to quality, also offers on-site setup and calibration for optimal performance.

Design and Build Quality

The UNRIVALED SFTR/AX boasts a modular speaker system design, allowing users to customize their setup according to their room size and preferences. The sleek satin black or satin white finish options provide an elegant aesthetic that can seamlessly blend into any home theater or listening room. The construction quality and inert design ensure minimal resonance and vibrations, contributing to a cleaner sound reproduction.

Features and Technology

The standout feature of the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX is its active DSP crossovers, which provide precise frequency separation and optimize the performance of each driver. This, in combination with the RBH Linear Phase Loudspeaker Processor unit and RBH UNRIVALED alpha amplifier, ensures a well-balanced and accurate soundstage. The digital crossover further enhances performance by offering near-perfect time alignment and a linearized frequency response.

For those seeking even greater control, the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX offers granular adjustments with slopes of up to 48dB/octave and FIR filters for time and phase alignment. This level of customization allows users to fine-tune the system to their specific preferences and room acoustics. RBH Sound's on-site setup and calibration service ensures that users can maximize the potential of their system and achieve optimal performance.

Performance

The UNRIVALED SFTR/AX delivers a reference-grade, audiophile experience with exceptional precision and clarity. The system excels in reproducing nuanced details and provides a wide soundstage that immerses the listener. Compared to entry-level speaker systems, the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX offers a significant improvement in terms of accuracy and dynamic range, making it a worthwhile upgrade for discerning listeners.

The system's performance is suitable for a range of room sizes, although the 62-inch height of the towers may pose limitations in smaller spaces. Additionally, the active version of the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX may be overkill for users who do not require concert-level sound levels. However, for those who demand the utmost in sound quality and performance, the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX delivers in spades.

Configuration and Flexibility

The modular design of the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX allows users to configure the system according to their specific needs. Whether it's a stereo setup or a full surround sound system, the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX offers flexibility in placement and configuration. Furthermore, the system's smaller footprint compared to the flagship SVTR system makes it easier to integrate into a variety of room sizes and layouts.

RBH Sound provides limited information on connectivity options and compatibility with different audio systems. It is advisable to consult with RBH Sound or a knowledgeable dealer to ensure compatibility with existing equipment. However, the inclusion of active DSP crossovers and amplification in the UNRIVALED SFTR/AX simplifies the setup process, as it only requires a music source and volume control for the active version.
