Discover the XC1

The new Airmotiv X loudspeakers share the same heritage of design sophistication, manufacturing quality, and the ability to deliver a truly awesome listening experience.

Here are a few of the more important and interesting features of the Airmotiv XC1→

A Testament to Superior Sound Design

The XC1 is a versatile three-way center channel or L-C-R speaker, featuring a 32mm Airmotiv folded ribbon tweeter, a 4.5” woven glass fiber cone midrange, and dual 5.25” woofers. This combination, along with a precision crossover equipped with audiophile-grade film capacitors and air-core inductors, ensures exceptional sound clarity and depth.

The Three-Way Marvel

The XC1's cabinet is crafted from heavily braced, acoustically inert HDF, ensuring minimal sound distortion. The front panel's satin finish lacquer and contoured trim rings around each driver enhance the speaker's aesthetic appeal, while the textured vinyl covering provides durability and style.

Sleek and Functional

Adding to its sophisticated design, the XC1 features a removable, magnetically attached grill with elegant corner details and a solid metal Emotiva badge, showcasing the brand's commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

Versatility in Orientation

The XC1 offers versatile placement options with its rotatable tweeter and grill badge, allowing it to be used horizontally as a center channel speaker or vertically as part of an L-C-R setup, catering to various audio configurations.

Customizable Audio

Enhance your listening experience with the XC1's bi-amp terminals, providing independent access to the woofer and midrange/tweeter sections for bi-amping or bi-wiring, allowing for sound customization to suit individual preferences.

Seamless Integration

The XC1 is perfectly timbre-matched to integrate seamlessly with both the latest Airmotiv X loudspeakers and older models, ensuring a cohesive audio experience across your entire sound system.

Our Commitment to Quality

Airmotiv X Loudspeakers: Redefining A Legacy

Introducing the Airmotiv X Loudspeakers - a blend of our best product design and high performance. These speakers are crafted for the ultimate audio goal: to convey the full sound spectrum with minimal distortion to bring out the best in any audio, from classical tunes to rock anthems and even blockbuster movies.

Transforming a basic electrical signal into a rich musical experience, your loudspeakers are crucial in any audio setup. They are the heart of music's emotional impact. Quality speakers don't just play sound; they create an immersive listening adventure.

Whether you're an audiophile with a stereo system or seeking a top-tier home theater experience, Airmotiv X fits perfectly. We've meticulously merged superior technical prowess, exceptional sound clarity, stylish design, and value in Airmotiv X to create our best speakers yet.

New Airmotiv Aesthetics

Our new Airmotiv X loudspeakers feature a new modern design aesthetic. The cabinets on the towers are slender and graceful. The front panels feature a very gentle edge bevel, which is attractive and helps reduce diffraction. The magnetically attached grills, with their rounded corner details, finish the presentation. In addition to the elegant satin lacquer finish on the front panels, we've added smooth trim rings that conceal the driver mounting hardware and help control diffraction while giving the new Airmotiv X loudspeakers a more sophisticated and finished appearance.

Revamped Performance Design

The new Airmotiv X loudspeakers also feature new and improved touches taking them to a higher level than ever before for Airmotiv. The new Airmotiv X Loudspeakers feature a rotatable folded ribbon tweeter with an improved waveguide, allowing users to configure the speaker to fit their specific system layout. The towers are structurally reinforced with internal window bracing and lined with thick Dacron for optimal sound dampening. Every speaker includes an internal-mounted crossover and efficient wire routing, ensuring efficient performance and serviceability. The robust, over-one-inch thick multi-layer front panel enhances rigidity. The driver layout is optimized for superior sound quality, complemented by non-parallel midrange walls to reduce internal reflections, delivering an exceptional acoustic experience.
