Omega Speaker Systems: Super Alnico High Output XRS

The Omega Super Alnico High Output XRS stands as a benchmark in high-efficiency speaker design, enhancing the already celebrated Super Alnico Monitor by incorporating dual-driver technology for even greater dynamic performance and volume. This model is tailored for listeners who seek not only accuracy and finesse but also power and scale, especially in larger listening environments.

Key Features

1. Dual-Driver Design with Unique LF Configuration The Super Alnico High Output XRS features two custom Alnico drivers that are identical except for the low-frequency (LF) driver’s distinct dust cap, designed to optimize bass reproduction. The LF driver is precisely cut off at 200Hz, allowing it to handle the lower frequencies without the need for a crossover, thereby avoiding the typical issues of phase and time misalignment found in traditional two-way speakers. The high-frequency (HF) driver remains a full-range, single-point source, delivering impeccable midrange and treble clarity.

2. No Crossover – Preserving Clarity Unlike conventional speakers that rely on crossovers, which can introduce phase shifts and muddy the midrange, the Super Alnico High Output XRS eliminates the need for a crossover. This design ensures that the sound remains coherent and transparent, maintaining the full-range purity Omega speakers are celebrated for.

3. Baffle Step Correction for Balanced Performance To enhance bass and midrange balance, the Super Alnico High Output XRS integrates baffle step correction. This feature compensates for the acoustic effects caused by the speaker’s baffle, ensuring consistent output across all frequencies. The result is a natural, well-rounded sound without the need for extra electronic correction.

4. Offset and Mirror Image Drivers for Enhanced Soundstage One of the standout features of the Super Alnico High Output XRS is its use of offset and mirror image drivers, ensuring an immersive and highly accurate soundstage. The drivers are intentionally offset, and each speaker in the pair is a mirror image of the other. This careful design not only improves imaging but also enhances the spatial depth of the audio, creating a more precise and lifelike listening experience.

5. Enhanced Efficiency and Dynamics With an impressive 97dB efficiency rating, the Super Alnico High Output XRS is incredibly easy to drive, even with low-wattage amplifiers. The dual-driver configuration offers more power and dynamic range than a single driver, effortlessly handling more complex music. The combined surface area is equivalent to a 9.5" single driver, resulting in greater volume potential, increased dynamics, and a more robust overall performance. The speaker can play louder and handle demanding music with greater ease, all while maintaining the speed and accuracy Omega’s single drivers are known for.

6. Superior Handling of Complex Music Whether playing fast-paced jazz or densely layered orchestral pieces, the Super Alnico High Output XRS excels at reproducing music with exceptional precision and detail. The two drivers working in tandem share the load, resulting in less distortion, faster response times, and an ability to effortlessly manage the most intricate compositions.

7. Handcrafted Cabinets Each speaker pair is meticulously handcrafted, with a wide-baffle cabinet design that not only enhances bass response but also improves overall tonal balance. The real wood veneer finishes add a touch of elegance, making these speakers as visually appealing as they are sonically impressive.

Conclusion

The Omega Super Alnico High Output XRS is designed for audiophiles who desire more power, dynamics, and immersion without sacrificing the signature clarity and speed of a single driver. By incorporating mirror image drivers, offset designs, and advanced baffle step correction, these speakers deliver a rich, expansive soundstage while remaining highly efficient and easy to drive. With Omega’s dedication to craftsmanship and innovation, the Super Alnico High Output XRS provides an unmatched listening experience, capable of handling even the most demanding musical content.

Omega Speaker Systems Deliver More For Less

When it comes to high-end audio gear, the price tag often tells part of the story, but at Omega Speaker Systems, it’s about more than just numbers. Yes, our speakers come in at surprisingly accessible price points compared to some competitors, but don’t let that fool you. These speakers deliver an audio experience that punches well above their price range.

Handcrafted Quality at Every Level

Each Omega speaker is built by hand right here in the U.S.A. Founder Louis personally oversees the craftsmanship, ensuring that every cabinet is as much a work of art as it is a piece of high-performance audio equipment. The real wood finishes are matched to perfection, the drivers are custom-made, and attention to detail is at the core of every design. You're getting a level of quality that typically comes with a much heftier price tag.

Single-Driver Magic

At Omega, we specialize in single-driver speakers, a design choice that delivers purer, more lifelike sound by eliminating the need for crossovers. This results in a seamless audio presentation that feels natural and immersive. Audiophiles often associate the clarity and coherence of a full-range driver with much more expensive systems, but with Omega, it's a standard feature.

Designed for Your Space

From the compact Super 3i to the flagship Super Alnico High Output XRS, Omega speakers fit seamlessly into your home and lifestyle. They’re highly efficient, meaning they’re easy to drive with a variety of amplifiers, including low-wattage tube amps. And thanks to their flexible placement options, you don’t need to rearrange your entire room to enjoy optimal sound.

Don’t Pay More for Less Performance

It’s easy to get caught up in the idea that more expensive means better, but Omega breaks that mold. You get audiophile-grade sound, handcrafted American craftsmanship, and cutting-edge design—all without the sky-high prices you might expect. In other words, Omega offers unbeatable value, with speakers that outperform many of the pricier brands on the market.
