Cambridge Audio SX-50 Bookshelf Speakers (Pair)

Impressively Affordable Performance

Cambridge Audio's SX-50 bookshelf speaker offers impressive hi-fi performance at a highly affordable price. Superb sound quality makes these compact speakers ideal where space is an issue, particularly in smaller rooms. They also excel when used as satellite speakers in a serious surround system.

The SX-50 is designed from the ground up by Cambridge Audio's engineers in London. It has a custom-designed 5" driver, silk dome tweeter, and full range ported bass reflex design. Other components were hand picked by the engineering team and the final design was painstakingly voiced to provide the best possible sound quality.

"Sound First" Design Principles

Following Cambridge Audio’s "Sound First" design principles, the SX-50 is designed to sound truly superb at an unbeatable price. Cambridge Audio puts the money where it counts, and you’ll be able to hear the results!

A custom-designed bass driver with treated paper cone offers a smooth and even frequency response. Powerful and efficient woofer magnets deliver deep bass without putting stress on your amp. The silk dome tweeter combines a soft, smooth sound with high levels of detail. A dedicated foam damper behind the tweeter reduces reflections and increases sound stage depth for a truly spacious, room-filling experience where you can pick out every instrument. Precisely optimized crossovers give the smoothest and most linear response.

The SX-50's rigid MDF cabinet has been modeled using CAD so that the speaker dimensions minimize standing waves, for a more precise bass response. Finished in black or dark walnut, the SX-50 is supplied with an attractive grille.
