The cabinet looks like pretty standard MDF with a mock wood finish, with a separate baffle piece which the basket and horn are loaded into. Or you could choose to cover the woofers with the included partial grills that are actually stiff metal.
And of course, you can’t forget the bright red rubber surround that simply is Cerwin Vega. The woofer is a fairly standard looking paper cone with a big dust cap that proudly displays the CV logo. The tweeter is a one inch soft dome loaded in a large and clunky looking waveguide horn. It’s a fairly standard 2 way bookshelf speaker with a 6.5 inch woofer. The XLS 6 is part of the same lineup, and the smallest of the bunch. We’ve reviewed their long time popular and unabashedly massive XLS 215s (read here), which might be the most powerful (and huge and heavy) non-commercial speakers we’ve ever seen. Their reputation is that they get loud, and maybe not always pleasantly so. Review And DiscussionĬerwin-Vega is known as the proverbial arena/party speaker, though the company has been around since circa 1950. *When nominal/RMS power isn’t specified by manufacturer, we use an approximation of ~30% of the specified peak/dynamic power for comparison purposes. Speaker type: passive, 2-way, double back-portedįrequency response range: 50 – 20k Hz (+/- 3dB)Ĭabinet dimensions: 8 x 11.5 x 15 in (width x depth x height) You can expect a little more extension with the L 36 for the 元6 is deeper than the old Cerwin Vega W Bin.Comes with a removable still metallic woofer cover Important Specs Overview Here is the measured frequency response of one Cerwin Vega woofer sitting in a Cerwin Vega W Bin with and without equalisation. However, if the suspension is stiff, they should be fine.
If the suspension is loose then they may need reconing. The old woofers were rated using the old continuous average method not, program as all new woofers are rated today.Ĭerwin Vega offers recone kits for their woofers so it will not be hard to get the drivers recone if needed. They would only get destroyed if I heavily clipped 800 watts into each driver. My L 36 offered 300-watt drivers in them. I used to have four L 36 decades ago and, would set the HPF 40 Hz so eight could be set 35 Hz. That key element is the original Cerwin Vega woofer. The Cerwin Vega 元6 copies do not go as low as the original for they are missing the key element. In order to achieve lower frequencies in Cerwin Vega 元6, you must use Cerwin Vega woofers. With eight, you should be a little lower than 40 Hz.
