Features

  • Elevate your sound
    Clarity and power come together in the XS-680ES 2-way speakers. Enjoy a premium Mobile ES experience and the ease of installation from the compact coaxial design.
  • MRC Aramid Fiber Matrix Woofer
    The main speaker diaphragm on the XS-680ES is crafted from Sony's unique Mica Reinforced Cellular (MRC) material. This rigid but lightweight driver allows for a much more precise response than conventional driver materials, for smoother and more natural sound characteristics.
  • Optimal formulation
    Embedding MRC in a unique matrix with aramid fibers suppresses diaphragm resonance and minimises distortion — not only in the lows, but also in the mid and higher frequencies. The result is sound that is powerful at all frequencies and uncommonly clean — even at high volume.
  • Separated Notch Edge Surround
    The woofer surround features another proprietary Sony technology, with distinctive curved notches improving the vertical amplitude symmetry, for dramatically reduced distortion and enhanced clarity.
  • Five-beam Frame Structure & Dynamic Air Diffuser
    The Five-beam Frame design disperses resonance while the integrated Dynamic Air Diffuser ensures efficient air circulation for smooth cone travel and cooling of the voice coil.
  • Progressive Height Rate Spider
    The acoustically-optimised spider allows for higher power handling and airflow, with a profile designed for more rapid and precise cushioning of the speaker cone.
  • Tweeters to hit the high notes
    Compatible with High-Resolution Audio, a soft dome tweeter diaphragm is directly attached on the voice coil, designed to cover your music's ultra-high ends, with a frequency range extending up to 40kHz.
  • Structure cutaway
    Discover structures of the Mobile ES speaker, including newly applied mechanical approaches such as Separated Notch Edge Surround, Five-beam Frame design, and Dynamic Air Diffuser.
    • 6x8" (16x20cm) MRC Aramid Fiber Matrix Woofer Diaphragm and Separate Notch Edge Surround
    • 1" (2.5cm) Synthetic Fabric Soft Dome Tweeter for Smooth Highs and Ultra-highs (up to 40 kHz)
    • Dynamic Air Diffuser for smooth cone travel and cooling
    • Lower-resistance film capacitor for smooth high-end
