The N1X

The N1X kit was designed to bring a cost no object performance level down to the budget class price point. 

The N1X kit uses the M-130X woofer and a Neo 3 pdr with a deep back cup that is an OEM version not available through any other sources. The kit comes with high purity Copper inductors and high quality poly caps from Erse. Resistors are non-inductive Lynk's. Internal wire is a high purity OFC. The tweeter circuit includes Gen.2 Sonicap by-pass caps as well. Ports are 2" flared ports from Precision Sound Products.

There are various options available to allow one to take the performance up several levels depending on ones budget. Upgrade options include a highly recommended Sonicaps and Mills resistors to take clarity and detail levels up a notch. Other options include a JPS Labs internal wire upgrade. See info on JPS Labs wire.  Upgrade options on binding posts are available from Vampire or Cardas.

      

The N1X kit is fairly easy to build. The kit comes with everything you'll need minus assembly tools and enclosures. The .5 cubic foot cabinets made available from Parts Express can even be used if you don't want to build your own enclosures.

This is a rear ported design and needs to be placed a foot or more out from its rear wall, and the deeper it is out into the room the better it will image.

This speaker has fairly low sensitivity and is ideal only for small to medium sized rooms where high output levels are not needed.

Measured responses are posted here in our forum at the Audio Circle.

One sheet of No Rez is highly recommended. Order it here.
