The Evolution of Stealth Cinema: Krix MX-30i Modular
The Krix MX-30i Modular is engineered for the enthusiast who demands flagship performance but prefers a completely integrated aesthetic. As the “in-wall” optimized version of the legendary MX-30, the Krix MX-30i Modular is designed to be recessed directly into a cavity, providing a flush-mount finish that disappears behind an acoustically transparent screen.
Whether you are watching the latest 4K blockbuster or a high-octane concert film, the Krix MX-30i Modular ensures that every seat in your dedicated theatre is immersed in a massive, detailed soundstage.
Key Features and Technical Specifications
The Krix MX-30i Modular is a 3-way performance beast in a 2-way configuration, utilizing high-sensitivity drivers that allow for massive dynamic range.
Pro-Grade LCR Modules
The Left, Centre, and Right modules of the Krix MX-30i Modular utilize a 305mm (12″) mid-bass driver. This is coupled with a 25mm fabric dome tweeter and a proprietary waveguide that controls dispersion to 90 degrees horizontal. This ensures that the Krix MX-30i Modular delivers pin-sharp dialogue and localized sound effects that track perfectly with the on-screen action.
Unmatched Sensitivity
Because the Krix MX-30i Modular is designed with high sensitivity, it can achieve “Reference Level” volume with significantly less strain on your amplifiers than traditional residential speakers.
The Power of the 15-Inch Passive Subwoofers
At the heart of the Krix MX-30i Modular are two high-displacement 380mm (15″) subwoofers. These units are built to move massive amounts of air, providing the low-frequency “slam” that defines the modern cinema experience.
With the Krix MX-30i Modular, you won’t just hear the explosions or the deep rumble of a soundtrack; you will feel them. These subwoofers extend deep into the subsonic range, ensuring no detail is lost in the low-end spectrum.
Infinite Baffle Design in an In-Wall Format
The Krix MX-30i Modular leverages Krix’s famous Infinite Baffle technology. Each module features a front baffle covered in sound-absorbent material. When installed as part of a false wall, this creates a seamless acoustic plane.
This design prevents sound waves from reflecting off the rear wall and interfering with the forward-projecting sound. The result with the Krix MX-30i Modular is a cleaner, punchier, and more accurate soundstage compared to standard in-wall speakers.
The Modular Flexibility Advantage
The “Modular” aspect of the Krix MX-30i Modular allows for custom-tailored placement. Every room is different, and every screen size varies. By using five independent modules, the Krix MX-30i Modular allows installers to space the LCR units to perfectly match the width of 16:9 or 2.35:1 screens.
Installation and Integration Requirements
The Krix MX-30i Modular is a specialist product that requires careful planning during the construction of your home theatre.
-
- Cavity Depth: The Krix MX-30i Modular requires a minimum depth of 335mm for the modules and proper cable management.
- Amplification: While the LCRs are efficient, the 15″ subwoofers of the Krix MX-30i Modular perform best when paired with a high-current dedicated power amplifier.
- Screen Placement: The system must be placed behind a woven or micro-perforated screen to allow the high frequencies to pass through unimpeded.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the MX-30i Modular differ from the standard MX-30?
The Krix MX-30i Modular is specifically optimized for in-wall mounting with a modified cabinet and baffle design to ensure peak performance when flush-mounted, whereas the standard MX-30 is typically used in a baffle-wall build-out.
Is the Krix MX-30i Modular suitable for 8K video setups?
Absolutely. The audio resolution of the Krix MX-30i Modular is designed to match the highest-fidelity video sources available, providing a truly high-end 8K-ready audio solution.
