- Dedicated foam damper behind the tweeter reduces reflections and increases sound stage depth for a truly spacious, room-filling experience where you can pick out every instrument.
- Precisely optimised crossovers give the smoothest and most linear response.
- Rigid MDF cabinet modelled using CAD so that the speaker dimensions minimise standing waves, for a more precise bass response.
Great speakers begin with the cabinet.
SX Series speakers use cabinets that make extensive use of CAD (Computer-Aided Design) to fully understand where they need to be braced and strengthened.
Why? So that every millimetre of movement from the drivers is directed towards the listener as sound and not wasted as cabinet vibration.
Many Drivers, One Voice
Great care and attention have gone into the design ofthe crossovers in SX Series.
As they are entirely responsible for ensuring that each driver receives the correct frequency, we have worked hard to deliver this requirement as efficiently as possible.
Timing and stereo imaging are accurate because the phase remains completely linear from top to bottom.
