McIntosh RS200 Wireless Loudspeaker System
Founded in 1949, McIntosh is known for offering distinguished home audio systems that deliver the ultimate experience in music and film. This American brand offers products for two-channel stereo sound systems and multi-channel home theaters with surround sound. Their products are designed and handcrafted in Binghamton, NY; they feature classic design elements such as a black glass front panel, illuminated logo, control knobs, and a pair of fast responding blue Watt meters.
The next generation home audio wireless speaker by McIntosh is the RS200, a home audio wireless speaker designed for a modern streaming lifestyle. This system 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.
The RS200 comes loaded with several streaming options. It features Apple® AirPlay® 2; Bluetooth® 5.0 with support for AAC, Qualcomm® aptX™ HD for hi res playback and Qualcomm aptX Low Latency for improved audio transmission speed to deliver sound in sync with visual media; DTS Play-Fi® whole-home wireless audio; and DLNA support.
For non-streaming applications, it has an audio-only HDMI ARC1 input that connects only to TVs that have Audio Return Channel (ARC) capabilities; an optical input to connect TVs without ARC, or digital sources such as CD Players; a USB Type-B input to play music from your Macintosh or Windows computer; and a 3.5mm AUX input for connecting various analog music sources.
