The Power of the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall
The Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall is designed specifically for listeners who demand the highest level of performance from their home theatre. As the most critical speaker in a surround sound setup, the center channel handles over 70% of a movie’s soundtrack, including almost all dialogue.
By choosing the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall, you are ensuring that every word is heard with absolute precision. This speaker is not just a residential unit; it is a scaled-down version of the massive speakers Krix installs in commercial cinemas worldwide. It brings that same “wall of sound” impact to your private screening room.
Why Dialogue Clarity Matters in Home Cinema
One of the most common complaints in home audio is the inability to hear voices over background music and sound effects. The Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall solves this through superior directivity and high efficiency.
Because the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall utilizes a professional-grade compression driver coupled to a constant directivity horn, it ensures that sound is focused on the audience. This minimizes room reflections that can “muddy” the sound, leading to a revolutionary improvement in vocal intelligibility.
Key Features of the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall
Professional Compression Driver
At the heart of the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall is a high-frequency compression driver. This technology allows the speaker to produce high sound pressure levels (SPL) with incredibly low distortion, a hallmark of the Krix cinema sound.
High-Power 255mm Bass Driver
The Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall features a massive 255mm (10-inch) bass driver. This allows the speaker to handle deep male voices and low-frequency impacts with ease, providing a seamless transition to your subwoofers.
Slimline On-Wall Cabinet
Despite its immense power, the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall features a shallow cabinet design. This allows it to be mounted directly onto a wall under a large TV or behind an acoustically transparent screen without taking up valuable floor space.
Acoustic Engineering and Driver Technology
Krix engineers have spent decades perfecting the crossover networks used in the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall. The crossover is designed to maintain phase consistency, ensuring that the soundstage remains stable and the transitions between drivers are imperceptible.
The cabinet of the Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall is constructed from high-density MDF and is heavily braced. This prevents cabinet resonance, which can color the sound and detract from the realism of the cinematic experience.
Installation and Placement Versatility
The Krix Megaphonix Centre On-Wall is incredibly versatile. While it is optimized as a center channel, it can also be used as part of an identical LCR (Left, Centre, Right) trio for the ultimate timber-matched front soundstage.
- Behind the Screen: Ideal for use with woven acoustically transparent screens.
- Below the Display: Perfect for mounting on a wall under a large LED or OLED panel.
- Mounting System: Includes robust brackets for a secure and level installation.
