Amphion One18X

Details

One18X is the next evolutionary stage of the revered One18 – the trusted “modern workhorse” model. A state-of-the-art tweeter and newly engineered crossover enhance its clarity, resolution, and transient precision. Now benefiting from a highly linear, ultra-low distortion tweeter, and delivering unprecedented detail and perfect spatial cues, the One18X not only preserves its previous iconic status as a well translating modern nearfield, it raises the benchmark of a trusted studio monitor even further.

Unique highlights

Industry leading translation

Trusting what you hear builds confidence, ensures better results and raises productivity. Amphion monitoring allows focusing on things that count which saves time and helps meet the ever tightening deadlines.

Pinpoint imaging

Due to their phase coherence and pinpoint imaging, Amphion monitors translate precisely to any playback device, as they allow you to correctly reproduce information in all planes including width, height, and depth.

DSP-free acoustic purity

Amphion’s advanced acoustic design minimizes electric clutter. Electrical purity allows harnessing the full power of latest signal processing devices, room-correction and other types of advanced software.

Point-source sound

Lowering the crossover point allows the speakers to operate in point-source manner. This leads to industry leading phase coherence and pinpoint imaging.

Time-aligned drivers

Timing properties between the various drivers are improved as the waveguide aligns the voice coils of the tweeter and the woofer to the same level.

Low volume, high intensity

Easy to place and well-performing even under challenging acoustics. Clear and memorable even on lower listening volumes. Thanks to even dispersion, enjoyment is not limited to a single seat.

Measurements

Because all real control rooms have at least one surface (a floor) the speaker low end (below 100Hz) is measured in half free space. This gives a fairly accurate estimation of a very large control room, with the speaker placed far from back and side walls. As the room size decreases, the amount of bass increases, which means that the smaller speaker models are particularly well suited to smaller rooms which will support the bass response of the speaker. In other words, the plotted frequency response corresponds to the minimum amount of bass you can expect in any control room.
