It made sense to test the, allready in Mark K's ER18DXT installed and proven combination of Seas ER18RNX (H1456-08) and Seas DXT 27TBCD/GB (H1499), also in the DXT-MON series.
And the test was successful ... In terms of cabinet size, it is significantly smaller than the DXT-MON-182, correspondingly a little less deep bass. In terms of horizontal directivity, the DXT-MON-RNX sets the bar even a little higher. An extremely fascinating speaker!
