Bringing you a big, room-filling sound, the Cambridge Audio SX80 speakers demand you to take notice.
ROCK YOUR ROOM WITH POWERFUL BASS RESPONSE
Using two bass woofers and a large cabinet, the Cambridge Audio SX80s are no shrinking violets! Whether you\’re into Drum and Bass, full orchestral or rock music turned up to \’11\’, the SX80s deliver a powerful, full-range sound that does justice to the whole of the frequency response.
TAILOR THE SOUND TO SUIT YOU
Need the speakers to be close to the wall and find the sound too bassy? Cambridge Audio has the answer. Supplied with foam bung inserts, the bass response can be \’damped\’ and toned down by simply inserting the bungs into the bass ports.
TOP QUALITY CONSTRUCTION FOR LASTING APPEAL
Made from dense, MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) rather than flimsy chipboard, the SX80s are built to last. That solid construction also has a knock-on effect in helping to improve the sound quality through higher cabinet rigidity. Other neat design features that we love include the recessed drive units with hidden fixing bolts, making sure the front the panel looks every bit as smooth as the sound.
PART OF THE SX-SERIES AND SO IDEAL FOR SURROUND SOUND SYSTEMS
With matching centre and surround sound speakers available, the Cambridge Audio SX80 is ideal as part of a surround sound speaker system. The large size and powerful sound of these floorstanding speakers makes them perfect for front AV speakers. With a similar sonic balance to the other SX-series speakers you get a smooth, uniform sound right the way around your room for a totally enveloping sound.
| Magnetically Shielded | Are they magnetically shielded? Allows speaker to be placed near a CRT TV/Monitor or sensitive magnetically stored data without the risk of damage. | |
| Sensitivity (dB) | The higher the figure the easier the speaker is to drive – meaning a lower powered amp may be used | 87 |
| Impedance (ohms) | Resistance. Average figure is 8 ohmns. Figure halves when doubling the number of speakers | 8 |
| Bi-wireable | Are they bi-wirable? Separate earthing for tweeter and woofer – when used with bi-wiring cable gives a more precise sound | |
| Power Rating (Watts) | Maximum power rating – long term/short term (RMS) | 100 |
| Dimensions | Dimensions of speaker cabinet excluding any spikes, feet or binding posts. (H x W x D) in mm | 950h x 200w x 276d |
| Weight | Weight of each speaker in KG. | 13.1 |
| Black | Is the finish of this speaker black? | |
| Wood | Is the finish of this speaker wood style or wood? | |
| Other Colour | Is the finish of this speaker another colour? | |
| Freq Response (Hz) | The lower the first figure the deeper the bass should be | 40 – 20,000 |
| Speaker Enclosure Type | Type of speaker enclosure. Infinite baffle cabinets are sealed and so are often less fussy about placement. Usually they do require a little more power to drive, though. Bass reflex speakers are usually more efficient than infinite baffle designs but may require more care in terms of placement. Rear port designs, in particular, usually need at least 15-30cm (6 – 12 inches) between them and the wall behind, for a balanced bass response.
