The L-Acoustics 5XT is an ultra-compact coaxial loudspeaker intended for short-throw and discreet installed sound applications. Its 5" format coaxial transducer and 1" HF diaphragm deliver broad bandwidth and consistent 110° axisymmetric coverage while keeping visual impact to a minimum. The cabinet is built from first-grade Baltic birch plywood and designed to be cubic, allowing identical acoustic behavior in any orientation.
