Crossovers, drivers and cabinets undergo rigorous testing to ensure consistent performance and reliability. Each finished speaker receives computer analysis, BBC speech testing and extensive music listening tests. Every pair is checked against a reference model to maintain PMC’s quality standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePassive Systems\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MB2 XBD SE passive design allows listeners to choose their preferred amplifier. Its precision-engineered crossover distributes audio frequencies between the drivers for clear, balanced reproduction. Military-grade glass-fibre circuit boards, thick copper tracks and carefully selected, hand-soldered components minimise resistance and ensure reliable performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Beating Heart\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePMC’s ATL™ (Advanced Transmission Line) technology delivers deep, natural bass through specially designed acoustic transmission lines. The MB2 XBD SE uses two 3m transmission lines to extend low-frequency response while maintaining clarity and control. Special acoustic materials absorb unwanted frequencies, preventing bass from masking vocals and musical detail. Bass remains balanced and well-defined even at lower listening volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PMC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51511109910745,"sku":"186118","price":37499.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1123\/6098\/files\/PMC-MB2-XBD-SE-Passive-Speakers-with-PL5-Plinths-Each-Grand-Walnut-Image-01.jpg?v=1793890128","url":"https:\/\/skybygramophone.com\/products\/pmc-mb2-xbd-se-passive-speakers-with-pl5-plinths-each-grand-walnut","provider":"GRAMOPHONE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
