RSL Speakers (Rogersound Labs) has a speaker-making history spanning five decades, offering up high-quality speakers for an affordable price to many satisfied customers.

In addition, at one time they not only made and sold speakers but operated several brick-and-mortar retail locations in Southern California selling both speakers and AV products.

Although those days have long passed, the company has continued to offer "excellent sound at affordable prices" for hifi and home theater fans. Many know the brand for their very popular, yet inexpensive award-winning subwoofer called the Speedwoofer 10S, which was recently refreshed to version MKII.

Today the company is refreshing its CG line of affordable bookshelf speakers, but we weren't expecting new models to arrive for less money than their predecessors. The previous generation models were priced at $270/pair, and the new ones arrive for just $210/pair.

Building on their previous CG3 amd CG23 series speakers, RSL has released the new "M" series with two speaker models, the CG3M and CG23M.

Refinements include lower insertion-loss crossovers and higher-grade magnets that support increased output per watt. The M series retains the RSL's patented Compression Guide™ enclosure tuning technology yielding reduced panel resonance and fast transient performance.

The CG3M is designed to be used vertically as a left, right, or surround speaker, whereas the CG23M can be used vertically in the same fashion as the CG3M but can also be used horizontally as a center channel speaker – it is referred to as an LCR speaker.

Cabinet design refinements include a new "Matte" finish. This provides a more contemporary and neutral appearance while offering increased durability, scratch resistance, and a "vanishing fingerprint" textured surface. The Matte finish blends into virtually any environment, making it an easy choice for adding audio to any room.

Using the CG3M and CG23M speakers as a starting point, you can bundle or assemble a complete RSL 5.1 Channel Home Theater System for under $1,000.

Tip: RSL also offers a ceiling speaker for Dolby Atmos height channels, the C34E.
