Introduction and Performance Features
Performance Features
• Patented LD/HP
®
Technology
The McIntosh Low Frequency Loudspeaker Elements
feature the patented LD/HP Magnetic Circuit Design.
This design, when compared to conventional Loudspeaker
Elements, reduces distortion significantly. It also increases
power handling and efficiency.
• Neodymium-Iron-Boron Alloy Magnets
The 12 two inch Midranges and 7 three-quarter inch Dome
Tweeters all use this Alloy. The Neodymium-Iron-Boron
Alloy has the highest flux density per unit of volume. This
allows for a smaller physcial size driver and thus closer
driver to driver placement for improved driver dispersion.
• Low Harmonic and Intermodulation Distortion
The XR200 Loudspeaker System is capable of reproducing
the full dynamic range of a symphony orchestra with very
low audible distortion of any kind.
• Large Low Frequency Port
The XR200 Loudspeaker System utilizes a large 4 inch
diameter port to increase bass output, reduce distortion and
improve the overall efficiency of the Loudspeaker.
• High Power Handling
The Loudspeaker Elements and Crossover Components of
the XR200 are all chosen for use with amplifiers up to 600
watts.
• Superior Imaging
Locating the Tweeters between the two rows of Midranges
generates a symmetrical horizontal polar response for
superior imaging.
• Versatile Operation and Placement
In addition to the regular connections, the XR200 Loud-
speaker System provides separate connections for Bi-
Amplification and Tri-Amplification hookups, as well as
Bi-Wiring and Tri-Wiring.
• Loudspeaker Enclosure
The XR200 Loudspeaker enclosure is constructed with
non-parallel internal sides to reduce internal standing
waves and is given a High Gloss Black Piano Type Finish.
• Gold Plated Input Connectors
The XR200 input connectors are gold plated for superior
corrosion resistance and high electrical conductivity.
