The Cambridge Audio SX-80 Floorstanding Speakers offer effortless, full-range performance that captures the scale and weight of even the most demanding music. Designed to deliver a big, confident sound, these speakers feature twin 165mm (6.5") woofers and a precision silk dome tweeter, ensuring depth, clarity, and balance across the entire frequency range. With a rigid MDF cabinet and optimized crossover design, the SX-80s minimize resonance and distortion, letting your music take center stage with natural tonality and immersive presence.

KEY FEATURES

  • Twin 165mm Woofers: Dual treated paper cone drivers deliver rich, deep bass and a punchy midrange for room-filling sound.
  • Silk Dome Tweeter: A 25mm (1") soft dome tweeter ensures smooth, refined highs with excellent detail and no harshness.
  • Rigid MDF Cabinet: Computer-modeled construction minimizes standing waves and vibration for a cleaner, more accurate performance.
  • Optimized Crossovers: Precision-tuned to ensure seamless integration between drivers for a cohesive and natural stereo image.
  • Front Ported Design: Allows for easier room placement, even closer to walls, without sacrificing bass performance.
  • Floor Spikes Included: Decouples the speakers from the floor to reduce vibration and tighten bass response.
  • High-Quality Binding Posts: sturdy terminals ensure a secure connection for high-quality speaker cables.

EFFORTLESS SCALE AND PRESENCE

The SX-80 is designed to bring the live concert experience into your home. The combination of two powerful 6.5-inch woofers allows these speakers to move significant amounts of air, resulting in a bass response that is both deep and controlled. Whether you are listening to orchestral crescendos or heavy rock basslines, the SX-80 delivers with authority and dynamic impact that smaller speakers simply cannot match.

PRECISION ENGINEERING

Great sound starts with a solid foundation. The SX-80 cabinets are constructed from rigid MDF and designed using advanced CAD modeling to eliminate unwanted resonance. This ensures that the sound you hear comes from the drivers, not the box. The crossover network has been meticulously voiced to provide a neutral and balanced presentation, ensuring that vocals and instruments sound natural and lifelike.

DESIGNED FOR REAL ROOMS

Unlike many floorstanders that can be fussy about placement, the SX-80 features a front-firing bass reflex port. This design choice makes them more forgiving of room positioning, allowing you to place them closer to a rear wall without causing "boomy" bass. Finished in a sleek matte black, their understated aesthetic allows them to blend seamlessly into any living space while delivering a sonic performance that commands attention.
