CSS SDX10 XBL2 Subwoofer

• Dual 4-Ohm voice coil: This allows for an 8-ohm load in parallel or a 16-ohm load in series for home theater setups.
• High-power, low-inductance design: Ensures efficient power handling and minimizes distortion.
• XBL^2 motor technology: Delivers clean and powerful bass with minimal distortion (see below for more info on XBL^2).
• Long linear excursion: Allows for deep bass reproduction without sacrificing control.
• Versatile enclosure options: Works well in both sealed and vented enclosures.

Product details

In the context of the CSS SDX12 subwoofer, XBL^2 stands for eXtreme BL Linearity. It's a patented motor technology designed by Adire Audio [Adire Audio] specifically for loudspeakers. Here's a breakdown of what XBL^2 offers:

• Linear BL: BL (Motor Strength) refers to the interaction between the voice coil and the magnet in a speaker driver. Traditional motors exhibit a non-linear BL curve, meaning the force on the voice coil weakens as it moves further from its resting position. XBL^2 technology addresses this by achieving a much more linear BL curve.
• Benefits: This linearity translates to several advantages. It reduces distortion throughout the driver's operating range, resulting in cleaner and more accurate bass reproduction. Additionally, XBL^2 motors allow for shorter voice coils and top plates while maintaining desired force. This can lead to more compact subwoofer designs without sacrificing performance.
