Cerwin Vega XD5 Active Studio Monitor Speakers - $199With over 50 years of speaker system know-how involving concerts, movies and clubs, Cerwin-Vega is the name you can count on to recreate the full impact of your particular music, gaming and playback situation in your home or office environment. When setting out to create the powered XD Series, Cerwin-Vega engineers made their goal to deliver optimal sound reproduction from a selection of compact systems and enclosures that fit neatly in a desktop application. In the tradition of Cerwin-Vega products key design goals included optimized frequency response, overall clarity, low distortion and decent bass performance, a Cerwin-Vega trademark. The complete XD Series line includes a range of four models with 3", 4", 5", full range systems and an 8" Subwoofer. Each full range is matched with low distortion and high output amplifiers and soft-dome tweeters for optimal performance. For those looking for even more deep bass extension the XD8s active subwoofer will take any system to a greater level of bass performance. And unlike typical desktop systems, the Cerwin-Vega XD Series is built with Solid MDF wood enclosures. Of course the mark of a great desktop speaker is versatility, and Cerwin-Vega designers ensured that the XD line will fully integrate with any of your equipment or desktop configuration. As such, all XD products have the capability of handling several input options from both front and rear inputs. A convenient front panel headphone jack also provides output for private monitoring for when you need to "keep it down".
