First Look
This speaker set will change the idea that
flat panel speakers are no good option. In fact it delivers more than what you
expect. This package consists of XTR-60, used as fronts and the centre, XTR-
20BP as surrounds and a giant subwoofer with a beautiful remote control SC
6000.
The look of the speakers is really great.
The front speakers are mounted on smoked glass base, while the center and the surround
speakers has their own feet to stand upon. You can very easily place them on
the wall, either horizontally or vertically.
Technical aspects
The XTR-60 is enclosed in an aircraft grade
aluminum with aluminum dome tweeters and aluminum dome XTDD drivers to deliver
mid bass frequency. It has total eight 3.5" drivers.
The XTR- 20BP surrounds are bipolar, each
comprises of two 3 1/3” mid-bass drivers and disperse the sound nicely in wide
area.
The super cube
6000 or, better known as SC 6000 is probably the most interesting. It is
equipped with a remote control, you can now change the crossover frequency ,
right there from your sofa. More so with additional wireless kit you can
connect this subwoofer wirelessly too. The subwoofer has one 9" active
bass driver and two 10" low bass radiators. The subwoofers crossover
settings can be adjusted from 40Hz to 100Hz in 5Hz increments and above 100Hz,the
increments are set at 10Hz.
Bottom line
This HT speaker package is very nicely
suited for a average sized room like 14'L x 14'W x 12'H. Subwoofer delivers
nice bass effect. The other 5 speakers are quite sensitive and it will not ask
you a very powerful AV Receiver for its performance. Little disappointment is
there in the low mid range frequency, which the music lovers will be unhappy with.
By the way in terms of movie viewing, for which it is meant it delivers
dynamically without any sort of distortion or restrain.
