#17 Fulcrum Acoustic RX699: $350 Passive Discontinued eBay

Newer model: the Fulcrum Acoustic RX6, ranked higher, rated 3.7/5, released 2024. See every Fulcrum Acoustic RX generation.

Pros: A light passive coaxial installation speaker with even coverage and a load that lets many speakers share one amplifier. A 5.4kg coaxial cabinet with a 90° x 90° pattern and a 16 ohm load that lets many speakers share one amplifier channel. Vendor Spinorama data gives preference scores of 2.98 standalone and 6.54 with an ideal subwoofer. Measured bass extension of 109Hz (-3dB).

Cons: Bass reaches only about 109Hz (-3dB) and maximum output is 118dB, so it suits speech and background music rather than loud programs. Listening-window narrow-band deviation is 0.406, and it is passive, so an amplifier is required. Discontinued.

Is the Fulcrum Acoustic RX699 right for you?

Skip it if

  • you will not add a subwoofer: bass rolls off below about 109 Hz.
  • you want to buy it new: it is discontinued.
