XT Series
XT2
Form and Function
Either on a bookshelf, floor stand or fixed to a wall, the versatile XT2 performs 
brilliantly both in a stereo set up and providing the front or rear channels in 
an AV system. The XT2 features a Nautilus™ tube-loaded aluminium dome 
tweeter, positioned on top of the speaker cabinet for better image stability. 
A single Kevlar® cone driver handles the midrange and the bass. As with all 
XT speakers, the body is formed from a single, seamless piece of extruded 
aluminium, creating an immensely rigid, stable enclosure and reducing cabinet 
coloration almost to zero.
