Introduction

Thank you very much for purchasing the Fostex Model NX-6A.
The NX-6A is a nearfield studio monitor with a built-in power amplifier. It delivers a
musical and highly accurate sound, allowing you to check a sound thoroughly to a fine
nuance.

The NX-6A employs a 160-mm woofer (shielded type) which adopts the latest diaphragm
technology and a 20-mm hard dome tweeter (shielded type) which features a magne-
sium diaphragm. It features bi-amplifier design (60W for the woofer, 40W for the tweeter).

In the enclosure, HP sound reflectors are installed for natural low frequency reproduc-
tion. Thanks to the time-alignment construction on the buffle surface, as well as the
flush surface design, each sound image is pinpointed accurately.

From dynamic low frequencies to natural and smooth high frequencies, the NX-6A re-
produces the whole frequency range faithfully. It is the ideal monitor for recording
studios.
