Small, agile, high performance speakers are something of an English tradition - one in which B&W has played a full part. But there’s never been one quite like this. The XT2 features an immensely rigid one-piece extruded aluminium enclosure carrying a top mounted Nautilus™ tube loaded 25mm aluminium dome tweeter and a Flowport™ loaded 130mm Kevlar® cone bass/midrange driver. The small size of the XT2 combined with its very high performance drivers and, thanks to the rigidity of curved aluminium, its complete lack of cabinet colouration produces an accurate and transparent speaker capable of revealing the subtlest detail from either music or AV material. The XT2 is perfectly at home in a conventional stereo system or as either main or surround speakers in an multi-channel AV system. The addition of a PV1 active subwoofer in either case can turn an XT2 based system into something else again - a wide bandwidth, high power, wolf in sheep's clothing. Both wall mounting, with the included adjustable wall bracket, or floor-stand mounting with the optional FS-XT stand are possible, and in either location the XT2 can provide genuine, compact, critical monitor performance - with the unique benefit of a contemporary and stylish satin polished aluminium aesthetic.
