XA

The XA 1900

THX 

is the world’s first THX Ultra2 certified

speaker.  THX’s Ultra2 sets a benchmark for surround

sound playback of...Music and Movies...Digital and

ProLogic...DVD and CD.  The result is a system

uncompromised by program content or format!  The XA

1900

THX

 deploys the components of the award winning Snell

XA 90ps in a space efficient enclosure designed to fit into

most furniture and built-in cabinets or behind acoustically

transparent screens.   Intended for home theater and music

system’s L/C/R channels, the XA 1900

THX

 features a three-driver

eXpanding Array (XA) of dual 2 ½-inch midranges and 1-inch

aluminum dome tweeter.   This unique driver/crossover

innovation manages vertical directivity without lobing, for a

natural and “airy” soundstage.   Furthermore, its controlled

dispersion pattern and special tuning compensate for

unpredictable room acoustics and boundary interactions.

Coupled with two 8-inch high output woofers, the XA

1900

THX

 is capable of tremendous output, providing effort-

less, powerful sound to below 50 Hz.   Every XA 1900

THX

 is

assembled by hand and individually calibrated, assuring

performance to within 0.5dB of its reference standard.
