Bowers and Wilkins XT-2 Brochure

XT Series

XT2

Form and Function

Either on a bookshelf, oor stand or xed to a wall, the versatile XT2 performs
brilliantly both in a stereo set up and providing the front or rear channels in
an AV system. The XT2 features a Nautilus™ tube-loaded aluminium dome
tweeter, positioned on top of the speaker cabinet for better image stability.
A single Kevlar® cone driver handles the midrange and the bass. As with all
XT speakers, the body is formed from a single, seamless piece of extruded
aluminium, creating an immensely rigid, stable enclosure and reducing cabinet
coloration almost to zero.
