Each speaker is equipped with a 300mm bass driver, a 200mm RADIAL4 driver, and a 20mm tweeter.
The model is equipped with the following drivers: 200 mm RADIAL (bass reflex, front port), 25 mm tweeter (aluminum) and 20 mm super tweeter (titanium).
The model is two-lane, it should be used with racks. Despite the forward position of the bass reflex ports, the speakers should not be pushed close to the wall to avoid unwanted coloring in the lower middle.
According to reviews, the model has a neutral and natural sound, faithfully conveys the voices and timbre of instruments. The bass is approaching the lower octave, albeit at a reduced level and power.
The P3ESR XD2 can be used in a wide range of listening rooms and is optimized as a light electrical load even with low-power amplifiers.
