The limitations of the X1t in the low frequency range "cry out" for a good subwoofer. Out of curiosity, I combined the X1t with my two Velodyne DD10+ subwoofers - and the result is truly amazing. This liaison creates a full-fledged system that certainly would cause considerable problems for many a mature floorstanding speaker. The strings and the accompanying harp at the beginning of "Pas de Deux" from the Nutcracker Suite (Op. 71a) (Tchaikovsky: The Nutcracker, Op. 71 - Suite from the Ballet - Hi-Q Records xrcd24) sound sublime and majestic, while the piece successively increases into an expressive, intense conclusion in the fortissimo of the entire orchestra. Resting on a rich bass foundation, the X1t's excellent transparency now really comes into its own. This result can be further enhanced if the X1t is not driven in full-range mode, but via a crossover that relieves the midwoofer of the lowest frequencies. This way there will remain hardly any questions unanswered. It's really remarkable how far you can get with such a solution and how relaxed and homogeneous all musical material is reproduced from the lowest to the highest registers. You may have already noticed that the X1t - combined with the right team players - can make you lose your heart and make you become very happy for a long time. Especially in small and medium-sized rooms, the X1t can be a perfect start into a sophisticated high-end system. On top of that, the X1t is a real eye-catcher with its elegant design.
