About the Sapphire XL
The Sapphire XL is a high-quality two-way monitor loudspeaker from Audio Concepts Inc. It features a 1" silk dome tweeter with ferro-fluid and an aperiodic second chamber, and a 5.5" Revelator series cast-frame mid/bass driver with a paper cone and rubber surround. The woofer uses a long throw, low distortion motor system with a vented pole piece. The speaker offers a frequency response of 48Hz to 20kHz ±3dB anechoic, with usable in-room response extending down to 38-40Hz. Sensitivity is 85.5dB/W/M and impedance is 6 ohms with low reactance. Power handling ranges from 20 to 200 watts. The cabinet has a unique "dual-depth" design to reduce internal standing waves and provide a stable, non-resonant enclosure, constructed from heavy MDF with elaborate bracing. Dimensions are 12" x 8.5" x 12.5" and each speaker weighs 22 lbs. Available finishes include Satin Black, Piano Black (extra cost), and Inlaid Cherry (extra cost). The Sapphire XL is praised for its balanced, open, neutral, and color-free sound presentation without over-accentuated highs or flabby bass. It comes with a 30-day return policy and a five-year limited transferable warranty.
