Description

The Micro100x is a high-quality multi-purpose speaker suitable for use wherever top performance is required but space is limited. A two-way design, it utilizes a 5

/4-inch (135mm) bass unit with a cast-aluminum basket and Boston's

patented 1-inch black-anodized aluminum tweeter with AMD

(Amplitude Modification Device). The AMD creates an

extremely smooth, accurate response, resulting in remarkably natural high frequency reproduction.

The Micro100x uses an extremely rigid and heavy die-cast aluminum enclosure to eliminate unwanted cabinet resonances, for clearer sound. MagnaGuard

magnetic shielding allows placement next to a TV in a home theater

system without distorting the picture.

Five Micro100x speakers combined with a Boston powered subwoofer form the Micro Reference System10k, a home theater speaker system that delivers no-compromise performance with virtually unlimited placement flexibility.

Grille Design

The grille is made of perforated metal with a high percentage of open area for minimum effect on high frequency performance.

Enclosure Shape

The enclosure is carefully designed to optimize the system’s performance. The bass reflex port is precisely flared at both ends to minimize audible port turbulence. The area surrounding the tweeter is smooth with minimal recesses to maintain a smooth and transparent high frequency response.

The Micro100x is ideal for use as:

* The LCR and surround channels of a high-performance, space-conscious home theater system * The stereo speakers of a compact music system * A multiroom extension speaker

Heat Sink/Terminal Plate

Heat-producing crossover components are mounted to a die-cast aluminum heat sink for stable, consistent performance at high power. This large heat sink also draws heat from inside the cabinet, keeping critical driver components cooler. The tweeter has its own multifinned aluminum heat sink for increased power handling and reliability.
