{"product_id":"sonoxx55gr","title":"Sonox X55 Universal Speaker, Light Grey (Each)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Sonox X55 is a slim, versatile 2-way sound column that works close to a wall, on a low sideboard, or as a centre-channel speaker in a home cinema setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the Swiss Sonox\/ROWEN workshop – a speaker that adapts to your setup, not the other way round. It's sold individually, per unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Sonox X55?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn 18mm ROWEN fabric dome, a 13 cm woofer\/midrange driver and a separate subwoofer produce a surprisingly wide soundstage with clear voices and powerful bass for this format. The sealed Acoustic Suspension enclosure works without a bass-reflex port – so placement is uncomplicated: directly against the wall, in a corner, or in front of a window front, without the sound suffering. With the included stand, it sits neatly on a low sideboard – and in a home cinema it cuts an equally good figure as a centre-channel speaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean, well-organised sound with natural timbre and bass down to 45 Hz that's surprising for such a slim format. Whether as a stereo pair for music or as a centre channel for intelligible movie dialogue, the X55 stays clean and unobtrusive. The light grey blends discreetly into modern living rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Sonox X55 for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone with limited space, for placement close to a wall, and for home cinema setups that need a slim centre channel. Handy detail: you buy it individually – one unit as a centre channel, or two for a stereo pair. Straight talk: the X55 is passive and needs an amplifier or AV receiver. It doesn't replace the deep bass of a large floorstanding column – but it's considerably more flexible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe all-rounder of the Sonox line: slim, flexible and versatile, from stereo pair to home cinema centre channel. A lot of use cases for very little floor space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the press says\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"… the author was surprised by the enormous power the X55 alone unleashed.\" And honest about its limits: \"Of course the very last deep-bass octave was missing, but given the slim dimensions, double basses already growled with real substance.\" – \u003cem\u003eAUDIO SWISS\u003c\/em\u003e, Q2\/2025\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Versatile 2-way speaker (passive) for wall, low sideboard, or as a centre channel – sealed enclosure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions (W × H × D): 18 × 55 × 12 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrivers: 18 mm ROWEN fabric dome, 13 cm woofer\/midrange, 1 subwoofer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubwoofer principle: sealed Acoustic Suspension system (no bass reflex)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 45 Hz – 24,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpedance: 6 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 89 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrossover frequencies: 250 Hz \/ 4,300 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting: Stand (vertical or centre), flat wall mounting (recesses), VESA 75 × 75 (bracket not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnection: Screw terminals for speaker cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSales unit: per piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Light Grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScope of delivery (per unit): 1 × Sonox X55, stand, instruction manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need an amplifier for the Sonox X55?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The X55 is passive and needs an integrated amplifier, streaming amplifier, or AV receiver. As a front stereo speaker it runs on any typical amplifier; as a centre channel, on the centre channel of your AV receiver. We're happy to work out the right solution with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use the X55 as a centre-channel speaker?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, that's exactly what it's designed for too. Its slim format and good speech intelligibility make it a practical centre channel for home cinema – as long as your other speakers match it sonically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the X55 sold individually or as a pair?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIndividually, per unit. That way you buy exactly what you need: one unit as a centre channel, or two units for a classic stereo pair. If you have questions about quantity, we're happy to advise you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy buy the Sonox X55 at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause we can tell you from experience whether the X55 fits best into your setup as a stereo pair or a centre channel.
