Description
The Rubicon 2 is a 2-way bass-reflex bookshelf speaker, designed to deliver rich sound performance in a compact format suited to smaller listening spaces. It combines a 29 mm textile dome tweeter with a 16.5 cm woofer with a wood fibre cone.
The woofer uses SMC technology, a construction that helps reduce distortion. The wood fibre cone forms a lightweight, rigid diaphragm, designed to limit surface resonances and behave more linearly across its frequency range. The crossover frequency sits at 3.1 kHz, with a stated frequency response of 50 Hz to 26 kHz. With a sensitivity of 87 dB/W/m and a nominal impedance of 4 ohms, it requires an amplifier capable of delivering sufficient current to make full use of it; maximum sound level reaches 107 dB.

What to check before buying used
On this model, attention should be paid to the condition of the tweeter's textile dome, which can deform or tear if knocked or handled carelessly. The wood fibre cone of the woofer also deserves a visual check, to spot any cracks or indentation marks from use at high volume. Testing at different sound levels helps verify the absence of unusual noises or distortion, which would indicate a worn suspension.
