Features
The Emotiva X-Ref Series of loudspeakers were designed to deliver premium performance and superior sound at a reasonable price. All members of the X-Ref Series are voiced to work perfectly together and share similar features, including:
•Our Exclusive low-resonance 1” silk dome tweeter for crystal clear highs and perfectly integrated midrange
•Emotiva’s specially designed long throw cone mid/woofers; with proprietary blended-pulp cones, die-cast frames, butyl rubber surrounds, flat progressive-rate spiders, vented, copper-capped pole pieces, and aluminum shorting rings to ensure smooth low-distortion midrange and extended bass performance
•A sophisticated multi-pole asymmetrical crossover, which ensures a seamless transition between drivers and flawless performance in the critical midrange area
•Premium parts, including low distortion air core inductors, precision metallized film capacitors, and oxygen-free copper wire are used throughout for minimum distortion and coloration - even at high listening levels
•Optimized voicing. All Emotiva X-Ref models have been carefully voiced to not only sound superb as separate speakers, but to match perfectly and blend seamlessly with each other in any combination for both stereo and multi-channel configurations. (If you decide to add one or more subwoofers, the X-Ref DSP Powered Subwoofers have also been optimized to work flawlessly with the X-Ref Series of loudspeakers.)
•A critically braced MDF enclosure for minimum coloration, so all you hear is the music (1” MDF on front and rear panels of larger models, full 3/4” everywhere else)
•A furniture grade 6-layer black satin lacquer finish that fits well with any room decor and resists fingerprints
•Removable grills for driver protection and great looks
•Emotiva’s usual combination of superlative engineering, high quality parts and manufacturing, excellent support, and a 5 year transferable warranty, along with our commitment to deliver great products at reasonable prices
Additional features of specific members of the X-Ref Series include:
•Ported design for extended low-frequency response
•Integral decorative bases, add visual appeal and improve stability. Detachable carpet spikes are included for us on soft surfaces.
•Nested Array™ driver alignment for enhanced off-axis frequency response and minimal lobing
•Separate terminals for bi-amping or bi-wiring
