With these features, XIO not only excels in audio performance but also integrates beautifully into the aesthetic of any modern home, making it a top choice for users seeking the best in sound and design.
Connecting your XIO soundbar to a subwoofer can enhance your audio experience by adding depth and impact to the sound. You have two convenient options for connecting a subwoofer:
1. RCA Subwoofer Output: Utilise the RCA output on your XIO soundbar to connect any standard wired subwoofer. This provides a reliable and direct connection.
2. Wireless Subwoofer Output via KW1TXRX: For a seamless wireless connection, use the KW1TXRX, which is ideal for KEF subwoofers. Simply attach the wireless module to the back of a compatible subwoofer to enjoy a clutter-free setup.
Both methods ensure easy integration and optimal performance, allowing you to customise your home audio environment according to your preferences.
Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Sony 360 Reality Audio are advanced object-based audio technologies that create immersive soundscapes by placing sounds in a three-dimensional space. Unlike traditional surround sound, these codecs allow audio elements like raindrops or footsteps to come from specific directions, including overhead, enhancing the realism of any audio experience.
The KEF XIO soundbar supports all three codecs, a rare feature in soundbars that ensures users can enjoy the latest advancements in cinematic and music audio technology. This comprehensive compatibility enhances movies, music, and games by providing an unparalleled immersive audio experience, making XIO a premier choice for high-end audio enthusiasts.
