The Crossover
A well-matched crossover separates a good pair of speakers from a truly spectacular component system. Rather than
utilize some cookbook formula, our engineers meticulously developed a custom crossover network that beautifully
complements the natural roll-off of the tweeter and midwoofer. We used only the nest components in the construction
of the crossover to ensure the purest high-delity audio playback possible. Mylar and polyester capacitors with tight tol-
erances of ±5% or less were utilized to ensure that each set of speakers embodies the spectacular sound and reliable
performance of the NVX X-Series.
Optimized for In-Vehicle Use
The X-Series are car speakers, so it only seemed logical to design them to perform optimally in a real car environment.
Other manufacturers perform all their measuring and metering with the speakers mounted to a at bafe board on a test
bench. While these speakers may sound great on a showroom oor, they are virtually incapable of producing that same
quality in your car.
To attain the ultimate performance, we averaged the response from eight different positions within the car. First we
measured the response from the driver side tweeter at both of the driver’s ears, then at each of the passenger’s ears.
We took the same measurements with the tweeter located on the passenger side, and then repeated the entire process
for the midwoofer. Our engineers took this raw response data, along with the 3-dimensional locations of the speakers in
the vehicle, and used advanced computer modeling to achieve harmonious sound from the entire component system.
