Our take on the ROCKSHELF 68W V2

The Rockville Rockshelf 68W V2 is a passive 6.5-inch bookshelf speaker, meaning it needs an amplifier or receiver to play. It is the updated version of the original Rockshelf 68W, with a larger woofer magnet, a thicker MDF cabinet and a revised tweeter voice coil for higher sensitivity and a smoother frequency response. It suits budget-minded listeners building a first stereo or home theater setup who already own amplification. Against powered bookshelf speakers it offers no built-in amp or Bluetooth, but the cabinet and driver upgrades put it ahead of its predecessor on build and output.

Pros
  • Passive 6.5-inch woofer design with upgraded magnet for stronger bass output
  • Thicker MDF cabinet than the first version, which reduces cabinet resonance
  • Upgraded tweeter voice coil for higher sensitivity and better frequency response
  • Standard bookshelf footprint that fits shelves, desks and stands
  • Pairs with a wide range of amps and receivers
Cons
  • Passive design: no built-in amplifier, so an amp or receiver is required
  • No Bluetooth or other wireless input
  • Bass depth is limited by the 6.5-inch driver and cabinet size
  • Rockville's budget positioning means less refined crossover and finish than premium brands

About the ROCKSHELF 68W V2

The Rockville RockShelf 68W V2 is a pair of 6.5-inch passive bookshelf speakers. It is an upgrade of the original RockShelf 68W, with a larger woofer magnet, a thicker MDF cabinet and an upgraded tweeter voice coil. The tweeter upgrade gives higher sensitivity and a better frequency response.

Each speaker has a Kevlar woofer cone with rubber surrounds and a 1-inch silk dome tweeter. The cabinet is made of MDF, not particle board, and has rounded corners. The grills are magnetic and detachable, so the speakers can be used with the grills on or off.

The rear panel has gold plated 5-way binding post terminals that accept banana plugs, spade terminals or bare wire. Each speaker includes an easy-mount bracket for hanging it on a wall. The series is offered in 8 ohm and 4 ohm versions. The 8 ohm version is recommended for surround sound. A 2-channel amplifier running 4 speakers requires the 8 ohm version, or the amplifier will be damaged.

The V2 has a larger woofer magnet, a thicker MDF cabinet and an upgraded tweeter voice coil. Rockville says this raises sensitivity and improves frequency response.
