ESX VXP6.2C

Anyone who wants to conjure up the best possible sound in their vehicle will ideally build their dream system from several components. This is a job for professionals, especially when high-quality multi-way systems, possibly with a midrange driver, additional subwoofer, or separate amplifiers are used. It is precisely for such ambitious purposes that ESX engineers created the high-end VISION VXP components, which boast innovative materials, top-notch workmanship, and excellent parameters.

Even the most pampered sound connoisseurs will get their money's worth here. Immediately striking is the newly designed basket made of solid aluminum, which features the "X" from the ESX brand logo as a design element. However, the aluminum basket is not just meant to look good; above all, it fulfills technical requirements: The construction allows a 30 mm moving coil on a Kapton carrier to be housed together with an extra-large spider. All these measures are essential so that the moving unit can produce proper sound pressure levels and excursion (max. up to +/- 11 mm mechanically).

So that nothing is "held back" at the upper end either, a so-called "High-Roll" surround is used, which has been optimally integrated together with the composite diaphragm. The ESX sound engineers are particularly proud of the incredibly good VISION neodymium tweeter. At first glance, it looks like the also new model from the Quantum series, however, the VISION tweeter has been further improved with additional tricks: A special copper cap sits on the pole piece, which minimizes the distortion factor and linearizes the impedance curve. There are actually only a few tweeters on the market that achieve such a linear frequency response up to 25,000 Hz. In many listening sessions it became clear: The VISION VXP tweeter is by far the best ESX tweeter to date! It is never annoying and blends absolutely brilliantly into the music. Our tip: A 3-way fully active system together with the VXP3M midrange driver.

For the ultimate listening experience, professionals incorporate a third way in the form of a midrange driver such as the VXP3M. The quality of the also completely newly re-tooled aluminum basket VISION midrange driver with ring neodymium magnet is also sublime. Even the testers of Car & HiFi 2/2023 were blown away by the good SPL performance of up to 99 dB! Quote: "some 16s can't manage that". The C&H verdict "Midrange driver with excellent performance - HIGHLIGHT"
