Features
Two-way design
Instead of conventional two-way speakers, Sony oers a premium GTR series speaker system that
delivers smooth frequency response thanks to an integrated 2-way crossover.
Aluminum dome tweeter
The Xplod™ GTR series speakers by Sony use premium materials like aluminum dome tweeters to
deliver outstanding dispersion and beautifully clear highs.
6.75" MRC ber woofer
Sony uses Mica Reinforced Cellular (MRC) ber for supremely light and extraordinarily rigid woofer
cones. MRC woofer cones produce exceptional musical transients that are clear, with little distortion
compared to traditional cone materials.
Adjustable tweeter positioning
The Xplod™ GTR series speakers by Sony solves tweeter placement issues by providing adjustable angle
positions to help create a direct path from the tweeter to your ears so you get the best high-frequency
response.
High Energy Magnets
The Xplod™ GTR series speakers use high energy magnets to cone travel and power handling. The
midrange woofer uses powerful Ferrite magnet while the aluminum dome tweeter uses rare earth,
compact Neodymium magnets.
Integrated crossover
Xplod™ GTR series speakers by Sony uses precision crossovers to match to the capabilities of the drive
units. The two-way crossover includes high-pass lter (HPF) and low-pass lter (LPF) to ensure smooth
sound in the mid/high frequencies.
Bi-amp design
Bi-amp speaker systems use separate power inputs for each component of the 2-way speaker system.
This lets you drive the speaker system with dedicated power for the High Pass (HP) and Low Pass (LP)
portions instead of sharing the power.
Power handling
With quality construction materials, the XS-GTR1720/1720S speakers by Sony are rated for 75 Watts
continuous and can handle peak power of 320/350 Watts.
