1. General information
X-ONE is a new generation of flexible professional loudspeaker
systems suitable for a wide range of applications. The line features 3
models providing a solution for different uses. These lightweight and
totally modular systems can meet any performance need both in fixed
and mobile installations. They offer the same quality and reliability of
all
X-Treme products, targeted at high-level professional perform-
ances since the business unit was first launched. They include top-
quality components such as Neodymium loudspeakers with a Kapton
wound coil and a Titanium driver. The internal crossover grids are
extremely selective to obtain the most natural timbre effect at medium
frequencies, which play an important role in improving voice scatter-
ing and in achieving excellent musical clarity.
Fig.1 XTO speaker
The XTO is a two-way loudspeaker system with a 15’’ woofer and a
1.4’’ driver within a coaxial structure. The advantage of this system
is that it allows the same sound diffusion as a point source, generat-
ing a clear and transparent sound by creating a coherent wavefront,
while limiting the phenomena resulting from secondary lobes. More-
over, the point source system - with a single sound source - ensures
an extremely linear frequency response all over the space around the
speaker because the paths between the sound source and the lis-
tening point always maintain the same distance for all the frequency
range. As a result, the so-called “holes” in the frequency response
are completely avoided in all listening points.
Another original and innovative element of this loudspeaker system
is the horn designed by X-Treme engineers and equipped with a Ti-
tanium 1.4’’ driver coaxially fitted on a 15’’ Neodimium loudspeaker.
The system allows for a coverage with a 60-degree scattering angle
both on the horizontal and vertical planes.
The small-sized and lightweight cabinet is made of 3/4’’ (19 mm)
birch plywood painted with a special hot-applied bi-component
scratch-resistant paint which makes the system highly resistant to
weather conditions. The cabinet is equipped with flying points so that
the system can be used in as many as 12 different positions. This is
X-Treme’s philosophy: offering users a product easy to be managed
thanks to quick and safe installation.
The system can reproduce a frequency range from 50 to 20k Hz,
it shows 8 Ohm nominal impedance and is able to handle musical
power up to 1600 Watt. It can be used individually in a full range
configuration which allows for a 60° X 60° coverage, or as a stage
monitor both in near-field and far-field configurations thanks to the
different orientations of the cabinet and a wide frequency response.
