Dynaudio Excite X14A actieve luidsprekers

Smart, compact, active.
Danish high-end loudspeaker specialist Dynaudio developed the Excite X14A, an
active high-end compact loudspeaker. Integrating powerful digital amplifiers,
proprietary Dynaudio woofers and tweeters, advanced digital sound processing and
featuring user-adjustable settings to finely tune the sound according to room
acoustics or listening preferences, the Excite X14A is the ideal active
loudspeaker speaker for smart, modern audio systems. All one needs is to connect
a volumecontrolled audio source.

Based on Dynaudio’s vast knowledge and experience in crafting state-of-the-art
active studio monitors and revered  compact home hi-fi loudspeakers, the
Excite X14A drive units are tailored to match the amplifier electronics, and the
amplifier optimized to match the drivers. This creates the ultimate compact
audio system: An excellent active loudspeaker driven by a perfectly-matched
power amplifier and based on the award-winning Excite X14 passive model. The
Excite X14A utilizes a bi-amped configuration to achieve the best result: One 50
watt digital amplifier powers the bass/midrange driver while a second 50 watt
digital amplifier powers the tweeter. An Excite X14A two-channel setup yields a
highlycapable 2 x 100 watt stereo system. Dynaudio has integrated the most
advanced digital power amp modules and DSP design to complement the high quality
soft dome tweeter and MSP (magnesium silicate polymer) long-throw woofer. A
rear-ported bass-reflex design further improves bass performance.

Upon first listen, the musical quality will be immediately apparent: Clear and
open, yet perfectly balanced and refined, with an impressively deep and tight
bass performance for a loudspeaker this size. Sound staging and imaging between
the two speakers is excellent thanks to the meticulous DSP fine tuning and
optimization of the digital amplification.

The Excite X14A features three equalizer switches that allow one to fine-tune
the sonic performance even further, for example when placing the speaker near a
wall, corner, or free standing. The bass, midrange and treble can all be
individually adjusted in three levels. The high-pass filter (60 or 80 Hz) allows
one to optionally combine the Excite X14A with a subwoofer. With the high pass
filter engaged, lower bass frequencies will be filtered out to be covered by a
dedicated sub such as the Dynaudio Sub 250 II.

The rear panel of the Excite X14A features two analogue inputs to choose from,
one RCA and one XLR. The input sensitivity can be individually adjusted in three
levels. The Excite X14A can be set to either switch-on from standby after
sensing a music signal (Auto On, Auto Off), or may be left permanently
switched-on.
