Gershman Acoustics X Cube review
Based on technology first developed for the state-of-the-art models
AvantGarde and GAP-828 and the Black Swan, the X cube is made of two parts
which are design to be time aligned and integrate perfectly. One houses the
high and mid frequencies, and the other the low frequencies. The X Cube
uses very high quality 1-inch dome tweeter and a 6-inch midrange with a
first-order crossover. What makes the X Cube unique is the meticulous
attention to cabinet design and construction. The side panels follow the
Gershman philosophy of avoiding parallel surfaces. A passive subwoofer unit
is designed to integrate perfectly with the top and mid frequency unit. The
Sub part of the speaker has a 10" fibreglass woofer and a triangular
port developed by Gershman to help eliminate standing waves extends the low
frequency response of the system to 20Hz, offering life-like reproduction
from the lowest organ pedal note to a dinosaur’s footfall.
Unlike most subwoofers, the X Cube sub was designed to perform extremely
well for music reproduction. Due to the precise time alignment achieved
when mated with the top end monitor, low-level ambient cues integrate
perfectly with primary sound staging to endow both instruments and
dinosaurs with palpable solidity, combined with the spectacular
reproduction and extension of the high frequency (designed to be detailed
but not bright) and a very rich smooth life like midrange resulting in a
performance that is so realistic and breathtaking that can only be achieved
by real life performance.
Priced in the same affordable range as rest of the Gershman’s line
($USD/C$ 5000- 7500 depending on the finish). Available in: Rich Red
Mahogany finish, Black Oak, beautiful Lacquer and others.
