Mission LX-2 MKII Bookshelf Speakers Black Pair

Description: Mission LX-2 MKII Bookshelf Speakers Black Pair Impressive Transient Attack And Astonishing DetailThe Mission LX-2 MKII is a two-way bookshelf loudspeaker with a 5" bass driver and a 1" soft dome tweeter unit. From over 40 years of British Hi-Fi heritage and experience, LX MKII is a representation of Mission's non-stop pursuit of improvement and excellence.The LX MKII Series is the latest in a long line of distinguished Mission loudspeakers, joining the multi-award winning speakers from the mid-level QX Series and the flagship ZX Series. The LX-2 MKII maintains the Mission trademark 'Inverted Driver Geometry' design, which means the path length between the drivers is optimized. Unique at this price-point, this arrangement allows the precision-tuned crossover to yield improved transient attack and astonishing detail."Among The Best""Simply excellent sound for the money," ravbes Ed Selley, avforums.com, October 19, 2020. "Given that the original was a Best Buy and this is a better speaker, it only makes sense to say that this talented and invigorating speaker is cut from the same cloth. Well done, Mission.""Among the best budget speakers out there," raves What Hi-Fi?, honoring the original LX-II with its top rating of Five Stars. "These get right to the heart of the music, as if the Missions have a direct line to the studio and know exactly what the musicians wanted you to feel. That's a rare quality regardless of price."Perfected Over Hundreds Of Hours Of Critical ListeningPerfected over hundreds of hours of critical listening by Mission's lead acoustic designer, Peter Comeau, the Mission LX-2 MKII utilizes trickle-down innovations from the revered ZX series. Improvements in the famous Mission DiaDrive bass unit offer superior control of the low-frequency diaphragm, while a refined high-frequency performance and a re-engineered cabinet bracing system further help create a loudspeaker system that outperforms its price-class.Advanced New Driver Surrounds And CrossoverOne of the critical areas highlighted by the development of Mission ZX and QX models was the use of serrations in the driver surrounds to help scatter interfering reflections from localized surfaces to the dome and cone. The LX-2 MKII now incorporates these serrations into the driver surrounds, adding further finesse to the drive unit outputs and providing a smoother frequency response.With minor perturbations in the driver response ironed out, the crossover has been optimized to take advantage of the improved performance. The result is that the LX-2 MKII builds on the winning formula of the LX, enhancing the clarity of midrange and treble detail and improving the micro-dynamics of the musical performance for an even more thrilling listener experience.Inverted Geometry Drive DesignMission's classic IDG (Inverted Driver Geometry) driver format positions the high frequency unit below the bass / midrange driver meaning the length of path is equalized so the sound waves coincide at the listener's head height. This proprietary principle improves 'time alignment' and thus transient performance, in Mission speakers.A New Start With A New FinishThe LX MKII series is the epitome of affordable high-end audio, harnessing materials, techniques and technologies that you would only expect to find in other speakers costing many times the price. Whatever your choice of music, the LX-2 MKII will reproduce it with outstanding accuracy, detailing and realism, embodying Mission's traditional adage since the 1970s.Standout new finish options follow the Mission mantra of fusing Hi-Fi heritage with contemporary design. The LX-2 MKII is beautifully finished in a choice of walnut pearl, and the latest Lux Black matte finishes.Product Features 2-way bookshelf speaker Mission IDG (Inverted Driver Geometry) driver design Precision-tuned crossover Enclosure type: bass reflex Transducer complement: 2-way Bass driver: 5" composite fiber High-frequency driver: 25mm microfiber soft dome Product Specs Sensitivity (2.83V @ 1m): 87dB Recommended amplifier power: 20-100W Peak SPL: 103dB Nominal impedance: 8Ω Compatible Minimum impedance: 3.8Ω Frequency response (+/-3dB): 55Hz ~ 20kHz Bass extension (-6dB): 50Hz Crossover frequency: 3.2kHz Cabinet Volume (in liters): 8.5L Height (on plinth): 12" Width: 7.9" Depth (with terminals): (9.8" + 0.3") Weight: 14 lb.
