FX 20<br />

PLANAR WAVEGUIDE SUB<br />

To generate the maximum<br />

possible sound pressure, the FX 20<br />

subwoofer features a Planar<br />

Waveguide bass horn and a highpower<br />

EVX 180B 18“ woofer.<br />

It covers a bandwidth from 30 Hz<br />

to 150 Hz with a maximum sound<br />

pressure level of 132 dB / 1 m.<br />

Two of these Planar Waveguide<br />

subwoofers deliver up to 138 dB /<br />

1 m per side, creating an extremely<br />

dry and deep bass foundation for<br />

Xa 2 systems. Like the top, the<br />

18“ woofer is securely protected<br />

SYSTEM AMP<br />

XA 4000<br />

The Xa 4000 system amp is a two-way<br />

(Sub-Top) power amplifier that can<br />

either be positioned laterally – for<br />

shorter cable runs to the cabinets – or<br />

centrally in the rack. Only two rack<br />

units in height and weighing a mere<br />

8.25 kg, this Class H power amplifier<br />

is equipped with a switch-mode power<br />

supply of the latest generation. It outputs<br />

1,100 W in the Sub and 900 W<br />

in the Top channel – in each case into<br />

4 Ω. Up to three tops and three sub-<br />

against thermal overload by the<br />

Voice Coil Tracking Protection<br />

system, and even extremely high<br />

power peaks are transduced<br />

accurately and powerfully without<br />

compromising the dynamic range.<br />

The cabinet is made from multiply<br />

poplar plywood 15 mm thick covered<br />

by extremely hard-wearing<br />

needle-felt carpeting. Two FX 20<br />

subwoofers stacked one on top<br />

of the other reach a height of 180<br />

cm, creating the ideal plinth for<br />

an‚ overhead‘ stack of FX 12 tops.<br />

Again, the use of four-pole Speakon<br />

woofers, however, can be driven reliably<br />

and economically by a single amp. All<br />

the requisite signal processing including<br />

the equalization, LPN filter, low-cut filter<br />

and active crossover, with its crossover<br />

frequency of 140 Hz with 18 dB / octave<br />

in a modified Butterworth structure, is<br />

on board. From the front panel, the level<br />

of the Sub and Top channels can be set<br />

individually to allow optimization of the<br />

system to the geometry and acoustics of<br />

the room.<br />

FX 20<br />

cables obviates the risk of wiring<br />

errors when connecting up the<br />

system. The Sub signal supplied by<br />

the system power amplifier is on<br />

Pin 1+ / 1-, and the midrange / high<br />

frequency signal on pin 2+ / 2- is<br />

looped through to the tops.<br />

Four large rubber feet on the side<br />

and the same number on the bottom<br />

provide for safe stacking in a variety<br />

of configurations. No fewer than<br />

six handles and four heavy-duty<br />

castors on the rear facilitate safe<br />

transportation.<br />
