Brand: Seeburg

#19 Seeburg X1: $866 Passive Thomann $866 eBay

Same family: the Seeburg X2 (larger model, rated 3.6/5), the Seeburg X4 (larger model, rated 3.9/5), the Seeburg X6 (larger model, rated 3.9/5) and the Seeburg X8 (larger model, rated 3.5/5).

Pros: A small passive coaxial speaker for fills, small rooms and speech, with consistent coverage and wall or ceiling mounting points. A 5.99 preference score with an ideal subwoofer and a 2.0dB reference band give an even tonal balance from a 5.5kg box. The coaxial 6.5-inch and 1-inch neodymium drivers keep sound consistent across the 90° x 60° pattern, which suits fills, small rooms and speech. It reaches a 120dB peak and has M10 points for wall and ceiling mounting. Measured bass extension of 97.5Hz (-3dB).

Cons: Bass is very limited, at 97.5Hz for -3dB and about 85Hz for -10dB, so it needs a subwoofer for any music at volume. The standalone preference score is only 2.52. It is passive and needs an external amplifier with Seeburg presets unless you buy the self-powered X1 dp.

Is the Seeburg X1 right for you?

Skip it if

  • you will not add a subwoofer: bass rolls off below about 97 Hz.
  • you want the best value: the higher-rated EAW MKC60 costs about $239 less.
