Features
Digital Signal Processor (DSP): The Cambridge Audio X300 powered
subwoofer features built-in Digital Signal Processing (DSP) which allows for
smaller cabinet construction without sacrificing bass response.
300W Amplifier: The Cambridge Audio X300 powered subwoofer is equipped
with a 300 watt (RMS) digital amplifier for increased efficiency and
reliability.
8" Woofer: The Cambridge Audio X300 powered subwoofer uses a
one-piece, aerospace-grade aluminum, front-firing 8" cone woofer to move air with incredible
efficiency.
Auxiliary Bass Radiator (ABR): The Cambridge Audio X300 powered
subwoofer utilizes a down-firing 8" auxiliary bass radiator (ABR) for greater bass response
and better efficiency. The ABR design replaces the need for bass ports to eliminate air noise
at higher volume levels.
High-Gloss Finish: The Cambridge Audio X300 powered
subwoofer is available in a high-gloss black (with black cloth grille) or
high-gloss white finish (with silver cloth grille). The black and white
high-gloss lacquers are finished to the highest standard using paint application
techniques developed by premium automotive manufactures. The black and white
lacquer finishes are hard to scratch and easy to clean.
Controls
Volume Control: The Cambridge Audio X300 powered subwoofer
has a rear-panel rotary volume control to adjust the volume of the subwoofer
relative to the other speakers in the system.
Crossover Frequency: The Cambridge Audio X300 powered subwoofer offers
a continuously variable low-pass filter, adjustable from 50-200 Hz.
Phase Adjustment: The subwoofer's phase adjustment allows you to
adjust the subwoofer's phase between 0° to
180°. If the bass sounds muddy or unclear,
adjusting the phase control can sometimes strengthen the bass performance.
Auto On/Off: The X300's Auto On/Off feature will switch the powered
subwoofer On and Off automatically by signal detection.
Connections
RCA Input: The powered subwoofer has gold plated left & right RCA
line-level inputs for use with receivers having a subwoofer or stereo preamp
output that do not contain their own low-pass crossover. The left channel RCA
input doubles as the LFE input, if your receiver has an LFE output and a
built-in low-pass crossover.
RCA Output: The powered subwoofer's gold-plated left & right RCA
line-level outputs allow you to connect (daisy-chain) a second powered
subwoofer.
Wireless Port: This proprietary 5-pin port is designed to connect the
Cambridge Audio Wireless Module (not yet available).
