Bring new life to your in-car listening with the Sony XS-163ES Mobile ES 3-way component speakers. Featuring a new 3 ½" (8cm) mid-range driver with Lightweight Rigid Cellular aramid fiber matrix diaphragm, they will give you wider sound stage and more depth to your music, for full-bodied vocals, detailed instrument textures.
Product Features
Lightweight Rigid Cellular Aramid Fiber Matrix Diaphragm
The diaphragms for the woofer and mid-range driver are crafted from Sony's unique Lightweight Rigid Cellular material, formerly known as MRC. The latest generation compound has been further optimised alongside mechanical driver improvements, to deliver an even wider frequency response and smoother, more natural sound characteristics.
Shallow Mid-Range Driver
The newly-developed mid-range driver is driven via a compact but incredibly powerful neodymium magnet. The result is a shallower basket, designed to perform even in confined spaces and challenging installations.
Optimal Formulation
Embedding in a unique matrix with aramid fibers suppresses diaphragm resonance and minimises distortion, not only in the lows, but also in the mid and higher frequencies. The result is sound that is powerful at all frequencies and uncommonly clean, even at high volume.
Bi-Amp Capable Crossover with Gain Selector
The audiophile-grade crossover features optimised, low-resistance film capacitors for clear high frequency reproduction. Plus inductive winding and air cores coils delivers crisp mid and powerful sound on demand. You will enjoy astonishingly low distortion across all frequencies, and the precision of crossover gain control, even when driving the components with a single amplifier.
Tweeters to Hit the High Notes
Compatible with High-Resolution Audio, a soft dome tweeter diaphragm is directly attached on the voice coil, designed to cover your music's ultra-high ends, with a frequency range extending up to 40kHz.
