Compact, inexpensive - and sonically convincing! With surprisingly powerful bass and silky balanced sound character, the RB42 masters all styles of music with precision - and brings a pinch of fun. Designed in dark wood decor and clean, modern lines, it fits stylishly into any living or work environment. Experience its captivating sound – from finger snapping to nodding – a speaker that excites both the ear and the eye. Powerful 4-inch woofer The robust 4-inch woofer is based on a shortened, solid steel frame with powerful magnetic system. The long-throw design includes a coated pressed paper cone with concave dust cap, large rubber surround and vented pole piece for precise and dynamic bass response. Silk dome tweeter with neodymium drive The tweeter utilizes Micca's proven 0.75" silk dome design, combined with a highly efficient neodymium magnet and a form-fitting, narrow front bezel for tight driver arrangement. The acoustically transparent front grille is made of fine mesh fabric over a beveled, slim frame. Elaborate 10-element crossover A complex 10-element switch with high-quality foil capacitors and air coils ensures balanced sound tuning. Both high and low range operate at 18 dB/octave - this improves resilience, reduces unwanted directivity ("lobing") and optimises off-axis radiation. Sturdy housing with optimised cushioning Distortion and sound discoloration are effectively reduced by the use of 19 mm thick MDF panels on all sides of the case - with miter joints for maximum stability. The case is equipped with specially tuned polyfill filling to minimize resonance and improve case tuning. Versatile sound character The RB42 offers a versatile sound profile: On the one hand, vibrant, entertaining and suitable for hours of listening – on the other hand also precise and detailed for focused music enjoyment. In the sweet spot, it unfolds its full potential with impressive dynamics and fine resolution. Low range and fatigue-free treble For such a compact speaker, the RB42 offers exceptionally satisfying bass response. Its balanced frequency course represents music true-to-life, with harmonious tonal balance. The tweeter is tuned slightly below the neutral axis to avoid listening fatigue - without sacrificing detail. Why compromise? Choosing the right speaker often means a compromise between compact size, affordable price and good sound – usually you only get two. The RB42 shelf speaker is Micca's answer to the question: Why not all at once? Try a pair at home! Listen for yourself: Try a pair of RB42 at home with your favourite music. Place them 15-30cm from the wall on speaker stands or a table with slanted decoupling pads for optimal results.

You cannot directly connect these speakers to that monitor. You need an amplifier, and monitors do not come with amps. This monitor does come with a headphone output jack. If your amplifier/receiver has a 1/8 input jack, then you can run a 1/8 cable from the monitor to the amp/receiver, and then wire up the speakers to the amp/receiver. Like others have noted you will need a fairly powerful amp to truly get the most out of these speakers./ **Q: In a small to medium size room, is the sprout 100 powerful enough to drive them loud?** A: Small room yes. Medium to large room, not really. I have the Sprout 100 and these sound good through them but you really have to crank the volume up to get them to enjoyable levels. I have the Elac UniFi UB5's which aren't the most sensitive speakers but I think it's just the size difference between the 2 that makes the Sprout 100 able to create a larger, more room filling sound with the Elacs than with the Miccas. The Micca's are a neat little speaker. They can take a lot of power and almost need a lot of power to be pushed through them to really open up. When they do open up they sound great. But at distance, at lower volumes, they can actually sound kind of thin. In my living room, as a soundbar replacement it was good, but that room is 14x24. The Sprout 100 was able to push them but it didn't seem ideal. Now, I have them in a small bedroom, 10'x12', using them near field on my desk and they sound amazing being pushed by a Topping PA3. The PA3 incidentally has just barely enough juice to push these near field at enjoyable but not extremely loud volumes. The RB42's are amazing little speakers, particularly at the price point but they need a LOT of amp to sound their best. **Q: How much does one speaker weigh?** A: They are pretty hefty at a little over about 7lbs/3kg each. So, keep that in mind when considering where you plan to place/mount them. 😉 **Q: What speaker stands would you recommend for these speakers?** A: I purchased Mount It speaker stands for these with separate foam wedges beneath them to angle the sound up. ## Frequently Bought Together - Micca RB42 Reference Bookshelf Speaker with 4-Inch Woofer and Silk Tweeter (Dark Walnut, Pair) - Fosi Audio BT20A Pro Bluetooth 5.0 Amplifier, 300W x2 Wireless Amp, TPA3255 2 Channel Mini Class D Integrated Home Audio Outdoor Stereo Receiver with Bass Treble Control for Passive Speakers - GearIT 14 AWG Speaker Cable with Banana Plugs 14Ga Banana Wire for Bi-Wire Bi-Amp HiFi Surround Sound --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/654822945-micca-bow-rb42-reference-bookshelf-speaker-with-4-inch-woofer](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/654822945-micca-bow-rb42-reference-bookshelf-speaker-with-4-inch-woofer) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-11*
