Architectural Specifications

The loudspeaker shall be an in-ground design consisting of one 133 mm (5.25 in) low-frequency transducer and one 25 mm (1.0 in) aluminum dome high-frequency transducer with a fre- quency-dividing network installed in an option- ally sealed enclosure. The low-frequency voice coil diameter shall be 25 mm (1.0 in).

Performance specifications of a typical pro- duction unit shall be as follows: Usable frequency response shall extend from 62 Hz – 22 kHz

(-10 dB). Measured sensitivity (2.83 Volt input,

1 meter) shall be at least 88.5 dB. The maximum continuous output at 1 meter shall be 107.5 dB. Rated power capacity of the components and network shall be at least 60 Watts continuous RMS power. The loudspeaker shall have a nomi- nal impedance of 4 Ohms and be available for 25/70.7/100 Volt modes with voice coil/4 Ohm direct. The frequency-dividing network shall have a crossover frequency of 3.0 kHz.

The enclosure shall be constructed of a roto- molded polyethylene plastic and have a remov- able port plug constructed of buna-N rubber.

The grille shall be constructed of powder-coated stainless-steel. Color options shall be granite green or sandstone. All transducers and network circuitry are weather resistant and ship in a sealed enclosure.

Installation shall be by in-ground mount. The external wiring input connector shall be hard- wire leads. The overall cabinet dimensions shall be no more than 358 mm (14.1 in) in diameter by 394 mm (15.51 in) in height and shall weigh no more than 5.9 kG (13.0 lbs).

The low-frequency transducer shall have a weatherproof butyl rubber surround to resist weather, elements and insects. The high-fre- quency transducer shall be a horn-loaded dome and constructed of aluminum.

For theft deterrence, all XT550 speakers come with anti-theft brackets and square-tip screws.

The system shall be the XT550 for both low and high impedance applications.

Phase Technology’s XT550 is an impressive addition to the realm of high-performance loudspeakers, showcasing a blend of cutting-edge technologies and innovative design elements. Engineered to deliver extraordinary sound quality while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing presence, the XT550 stands out in today’s competitive audio market.

One of the standout features of the XT550 is its three-way design, which helps to achieve an extended frequency response and remarkable clarity across all audio ranges. This configuration includes a dedicated woofer, a midrange driver, and a tweeter, allowing the speaker to reproduce a wide spectrum of sound with precision. The 5.25-inch Polypropylene woofer offers robust low-end performance, ensuring that bass tones are both powerful and defined. Accompanying this is a 4-inch midrange driver, which excels at producing rich vocal sounds and instrumental details.

The XT550 boasts advanced technologies such as Phase Technology’s unique Linear Motion Drive (LMD) system. This innovation minimizes distortion and enhances transient response, leading to a more natural and immersive listening experience. The inclusion of a high-performance silk dome tweeter contributes to smooth, airy high frequencies, ensuring that every note is delivered with detail and finesse.

An additional characteristic of the XT550 is its proprietary Bass Reflex design, which incorporates a specially engineered port to enhance low-frequency output. This design promotes deeper bass while maintaining clarity, allowing listeners to enjoy the fullness of their favorite music or movie soundtracks without muddiness.

In terms of construction, the XT550 features a rugged cabinet designed to minimize vibrations, enhancing sound fidelity. The cabinet is crafted from high-quality materials and is available in various finishes to suit any decor, making it not only a functional speaker but also a stylish addition to any space.

Furthermore, the XT550 is equipped with high-quality binding posts for easy connection to amplifiers and receivers. This flexibility allows it to integrate seamlessly into various audio setups, whether for casual listening or a dedicated home theater system.

Overall, the Phase Technology XT550 stands as a benchmark in audio innovation, merging superior sound performance with elegant design. It’s a noteworthy option for audiophiles and casual listeners alike, promising a captivating auditory experience that leverages technology and craftsmanship to its fullest potential.
