Amplifier
The XTZ 99 W10.16 is equipped with a powerful
300 watt amplifier with a large heat sink for
effective cooling. For professional use (studio, PA
etc), it is equipped with a balanced input. The
terminal connectors are gold plated and very solid.
To achieve a high power and a long durability, the
amplifier use a large toroidal transformer, large
electrolytic capacitors and Toshiba bipolar
transistors in the output stage.
The active amplifier also provides a variety of
adjustment options, not possible to obtain using a
passive filter. These include phase, frequency, high
pass filtering, volume etc.
By using these settings, the main amplifier is
relieved and only needs to drive the midrange and
treble. This usually results in lower distortion and
the risk of damages on it is lowered.
The woofer/ driver
The XTZ W10.16 is equipped with a powerful and
well-sounding 10" woofer. The cone has an
aluminium frame for maximal stiffness combined
with low weight, which together with the powerful
magnet contributes to the high efficiency.
To achieve high power capacity, we have selected a
larger diameter of the coil. The driver is equipped
with rubber suspension for high strength, flexibility
and obtains a longer peak-to-peak excursion.
The "non pressed paper" type membrane allows for
a very stiff, yet light driver. The basket is moulded
in aluminium, ensuring low magnetic losses and
low weight.
The cabinet
The cabinet is made from 25mm MDF with three
internal bars making the box stable, without
resonances.
The surface is varnished giving a proper look.
