Excite X14A

Smart, compact, active.

Powerful digital amplifiers, proprietary Dynaudio drivers and advanced digital sound processing. All you need is a source.

If you want to go active, there’s the X14A. It’s based on the passive model, but contains its own powerful digital amplification – one 50W amp for the tweeter and another for the mid/bass driver. We’ve matched each amp specifically to the driver it powers, so you don’t have to worry about system-matching or interconnects, and you can even tell the speakers where they are in the room (in a corner, in free space and so on) to let them fine-tune their sound for you. All you need is a source.

Want more? The high-pass filter (60 or 80 Hz) allows one to optionally combine the Excite X14A with a subwoofer. With the high pass filter engaged, lower bass frequencies will be filtered out to be covered by a dedicated sub such as the Dynaudio Sub 250 II.

Review of the active speaker Exite X14a version

"They’re snappy and swift too – fleeting through songs with rhythmic precision and explicit timing – but they exercise control at every turn."
