2. Tweeter

By employing a specially developed 1-inch silk dome with magnetic shielding, the tweeter can deliver distortion-free original sound and offer extremely natural response. It minimizes reaction time by using fabric silk for excellent delivery, and also minimizes resonance by adapting a unique internal damping technology.

3. Sub-Frequency Port

The hole in the rear panel is called a Sub-Frequency Port and is designed to discharge extreme low frequencies under 60 Hz.

4. EQ and Acoustic Space Controls

Back panel controls on the BX5s give you compensation for room EQs as well as compensation for the positioning of the speakers within your room. High frequency cuts, mid-range boost, and low frequency cutoffs offer a great deal of control over the sound and presence of the BX5s, while the “Acoustic Space” settings account for a variety of speaker placements.

5. Enclosure

Just as other components do, the BX5’s enclosure has an important role. In order to provide more stable performance, the BX5’s enclosure employs a special high-density MDF and unique interior reinforcement designed to absorb vibration and impact generated under extreme conditions.

6. Network & Power Amplifiers

The active crossover networks & power amplifiers for the BX5 are specially designed for this woofer and tweeter.The network properly distributes low, mid, and high frequencies to the components in order to reduce distortion and loss of sound, thus achieving a naturally balanced sound.

In order to generate powerful, ultra-crisp sound, there are two separate power amplifiers inside the BX5 to drive the woofer and tweeter separately in a high- end bi-amp structure. The power delivered to the woofer driver at a rated distortion is 38W, and 38W is also delivered to the tweeter.
