Sony is refreshing its EXTRA BASS wireless speaker line-up with the addition of the SRS-XB43, SRS-XB33 and SRS-XB23. Availability below.
Sony Extra Bass Wireless Speakers: SRS-XB43, SRS-XB33 and SRS-XB23.
The newly developed X-Balanced Speaker Units are waterproof, dust proof and shock proof.
The unit’s non-circular shape maximises the area of the speaker diaphragm, increasing sound pressure for more punchy bass.
It also reduces driver excursion while maintaining the same sound pressure, resulting in less distortion.
More details below from the press release.
The level of the sound pressure on the XB33 has increased by approx. 30% and distortion rate is reduced by approx. 25% compared to the predecessor model (SRS-XB32).
Unlike the circular diaphragm in a conventional speaker unit, the X-Balanced Speaker Unit in the XB43 features an almost rectangular diaphragm.
Its 2-way speaker system combines a woofer for low to mid frequencies with a dedicated tweeter for the higher range frequencies.
