Meyer Sound X-10 - Manual

X-10 provides an accurate,
detailed and consistently
linear representation of
the input signal.
To achieve the design
goals of the X-10 project,
Meyer Sound engineers
first confronted the
tradeoffs inherent in
high level reproduction of
low frequencies. Recent
trends in large room
monitors have
emphasized dual 15- or
18-inch woofers. However,
when operating above
250Hz, dual woofers
produce destructive comb
filtering effects. But
placing the LF crossover
below 250Hz normally
requires a three- or four-
way system, which in turn
introduces the inevitable
phase distortion
The Meyer Sound X-10
represents a fundamental
redefinition of large format
studio monitors for the
emerging era of high
resolution digital media.
Powerful, yet relatively
compact, the self-powered
X-10 exhibits extremely low
distortion, near-perfect
impulse response and
uniform dispersion across
a wide listening area.
Also, by employing cutting-
edge control technology
adapted from avionics, the
X-10 demonstrates an
extraordinarily linear
response characteristic:
the frequency response
curve does not change
with variations in
monitoring levels. From
the threshold of audibility
up to full output, the complexities of multiple
crossover points.
In order to achieve
an impulse response
exceeding that of
electrostatics and Meyer's
own patented HD-1 near-
field monitor, Meyer
Sound engineers opted
for a two-way design with
a single LF driver crossing
over at 500Hz. In order
to produce low frequency
output equivalent to dual
woofer designs, Meyer
first developed and
manufactured a new, high
output linear 15-inch
driver. This robust woofer
utilizes a long excursion,
4-inch diameter voice coil
suspended in a high
intensity (1.5 million
Maxwell1) field generated
by dual concentric rings of
Superior

and science
of sound.
