View larger The Future Has Arrived The Definitive Mythos XTR-50 is the first high performance on-wall speaker whose depth matches that of today's ultra-thin TVs. It is a mere 1.5 inches deep when mounted on a wall--shallower than many ultra-thin TVs when they are wall-mounted with conventional mounting hardware. Beyond its utility and clean modern styling, the XTR-50 stands out due to its uncompromising sound quality equivalent to full-size speakers. No other speaker complements your ultra-slim television with more style, versatility and sheer performance. Delivering life-like sound while still matching the slim styling of the latest generation of TVs XTDD Technology allows for a compact driver that still delivers dynamic punch and broad dispersion The Problem: The Thinner the TV, the Worse the Sound Ultra-shallow TVs are the hottest category in TVs today, thanks to space-saving qualities and elegant design. But it comes at the high cost of significantly poorer sound quality. With speakers that are small and poorly placed (usually on the bottom or on the back of the set), the result is that these ultra-slim TVs offer sound that is good enough for news broadcasts, but far from what is acceptable for sports, movies, and games. The Solution: Revolutionary XTDD Technology Drivers In order to equal the total high impact sight and sound experience that high definition digital sources are capable of delivering, a great TV deserves a great audio system. And the only component loudspeakers that can deliver clarity, dynamic impact and life-like realism while matching the slim styling of new generation TVs are the Mythos XTR series. The secret to the XTR-50's extraordinary performance is Definitive's patent-pending XTDD technology in the anodized Aluminum dome driver. Using state-of-the-art computer modeling and decades of speaker design experience, Definitive engineers eliminated every iota of wasted space, optimized every part, and maximized the moving surface area of a dynamic driver to shrink it down to an impossibly compact dimension without giving up ultra-high performance. The XTDD driver has the kind of dynamic punch, wide frequency range, and broad dispersion that conventional panel-type speakers simply cannot match. To extend and deepen the bass response of such an impossibly thin speaker the XTDD drivers are pressure coupled to four anodized Aluminum dome bass radiators. The center-mounted tweeter is the same hyper-definition Pure Aluminum Dome Tweeter found in Definitive's award-winning state-of-the-art Mythos ST SuperTower. The total effect is the kind of clarity, dynamic range and extended response that one would expect from a premium-priced normally-sized speaker. Your friends and family with be agog with amazement when they hear the huge rich sound that comes out of the wafer-thin XTRs. Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Enclosure Saves Space and Improves Performance Another secret to the XTR-50's astounding thin profile and superior performance is its aluminum cabinet. Specially shaping the enclosure and incorporating stiffing ribs and channels makes the space-efficient aluminum extrusion ultra-rigid and resonance-free. The magnets of the XTDD drivers protrude through the rear wall of the enclosure to further minimize depth. Ultimate Placement Versatility The XTR-50 comes supplied with everything you need to place it wherever you want to use it. The XTR-50 can be mounted directly to the wall using the key-hole slots on the back of the enclosure and well-anc
