Cambridge Audio Minx X201-200 Watt Active Subwoofer Featuring Twin Auxiliary Bass Drivers and Fully Adjustable Sound - Black

Product Information

I'm considering changing the AVR next to something with a better DSP that can output at 4k with HDR. Does anyone know if this will make much difference to the sound performance of my 5.1 system at all? This audio device was created by Cambridge Audio, a British audio manufacturer. Buy upmarket, top quality sound. For five decades they has been consistently inspiring audio connoisseurs with world class audio. Minx X201 is an active configuration. Therefore the amp is built in. Active amps connect to devices such as radios, record players and computers directly. Great for your HiFi System If you're in any doubt about the quality of this system then take a look at what the reviewers have been saying. "Well, Bose is about to get a sound thrashing from the British boys at Cambridge Audio, whose brand-new Minx is even smaller than Acoustimass - especially the subwoofer - and simply better. Much, much better." Jonathan Margolis, Financial Times. And, "To say we were impressed is a gross understatement." T3 on this denon i dont go above +1 bass as it a;ready becomes to muddy and max bass not feel great this not the most puchy amp you will hear, my previous marantz was hugely more punchy

SONOS continually strives to provide quality products that exceed expectations. The SONOS Sub is no exception here. Easily integrated into your SONOS surround sound system, the Sub takes only seconds to set up. Like all other SONOS components, full control is available through your iOS or Android smartphone or tablet device. Details: It may be the smallest in the family of Minx subs but don't underestimate the power of the X200! Like the other Minx subs, the X201 uses unique Cambridge technology to produce a bass response that is both powerful and tuneful. At the heart of the X201 beats Cambridge Audio's sophisticated DSP (Digital Signal Processor). When combined with the digital amplifier, this provides exceptional bass from what is one of the world's smallest subwoofers. To maximise this advantage the bass cones are constructed of one-piece, aerospace grade aluminium.The Sony manual says to crank up the crossover to it's highest setting on the subwoofer and set the volume to half way then do a calibration to allow the AVR to set the correct crossover frequency for it. The AVR set the speakers crossover to 140hz.

It will pay dividends to really experiment with the crossover settings to get the best blend so to speak but I found that in most cases 150hz usually provides the best results - 140Hz at the very lowest - any lower & the sub can be localised. Play around with the crossover till you get the best sound. Ideal for home cinema, discreet hi-fi or desktop audio, the Cambridge Audio Minx MIN12 speakers offer quality sound, style and flexibility like little else.I strongly urge you to change your sub if you wish to really bring about the best sound & balance from your system. No don`t redo test or touch knobs, the SW level -6,5db is fine! You can tweak that figure on the receiver menu (speaker levels, subwoofer level) to lower figure example -6,5db -> -3,5db if you want some extra slam. No need to touch the knobs of subwoofer anymore! Basically if you stay on the minus side you don´t need to worry much. It`s personal preference how much rumble you want there so try it out. i was happy with my spektor 2 with a marantz amp i had but i exchanged the marantz after few months for this denon because the software kept messing up for radio powered subwoofer. These RCA outputs pass-through a full-range audio signal and are unaltered by the powered sub's volume, crossover, or phase control settings.
