Hex tweeter midrange array
At the heart of the Cinema M8 Tower is a custom-developed Hex Tweeter Array, consisting of six 1" silk-dome tweeters. Five are optimized for the critical midrange region, and one handles treble extension. This layout delivers high output, low distortion, and controlled dispersion—ideal for immersive, room-filling sound.
Smooth mid to treble transitions
The array spans 950 Hz to 30,000 Hz, with five tweeters handling the midrange. This ensures smooth, detailed reproduction through the most sensitive band of human hearing.
Focused sound with less reflection
Narrow dispersion reduces unwanted reflections from floors, ceilings, and walls. This improves clarity in acoustically reflective spaces.
Pinpoint imaging
Tightly spaced, identical tweeters behave like a single coherent source, preserving timing and spatial accuracy for lifelike placement of voices and effects.
Even sound across the room
Maintains consistent tonal balance across a ±30° horizontal angle, ensuring everyone hears the same detailed sound.
Fast, dynamic response
Ultra light silk diaphragms respond faster to transients than traditional midrange drivers, improving clarity and articulation.
High output, low distortion
With six tweeters sharing the load, each operates efficiently within its range, enabling louder playback with reduced distortion.
The Cinema M8 Tower uses two 8" drivers in a D'Appolito (MTM) configuration. With a response down to 29 Hz, these long-stroke woofers deliver deep bass impact while also helping to smooth room modes for more even in-room performance.
Extended bass support
Reaches down to 29 Hz with control and helps smooth room modes for more consistent in-room bass.
D'Appolito (MTM) configuration
Enhances vertical dispersion and reduces floor/ceiling reflections.
Low crossover point to tweeter array
The low 950 Hz crossover to the tweeter array ensures all drivers operate within their optimal range for better clarity. This allows smooth, phase-accurate transitions with reduced off-axis coloration.
“Your sweet spot is bigger. Even if I move my head to the left or the right from the center I can still feel the center image location — while more traditional speakers I tend to lose that.” “If you put these THX approved speakers next to any other speaker in its price range, it will most likely destroy the other speakers when it comes to bass punch.” - Thomas & Stereo
The rear panel includes a three-step treble switch and a port plug for sealed or reflex tuning. These tools allow you to adjust tonal balance and bass behavior to suit your room, speaker placement, and content.
Treble control (-2 dB / 0 dB / +2 dB)
Adjust high-frequency output to match room acoustics or preferences.
Reflex or sealed bass tuning
Use the included port plug to tighten bass or extend output.
A precisely tuned 3-way crossover ensures seamless transitions, low distortion, and reliable performance. Steep slopes and carefully selected filter points keep each driver in its ideal range—minimizing phase issues and preserving clarity. Premium components are used for stable signal transfer and long-term durability.
3-way crossover (950 Hz / 2500 Hz)
Maintains coherence and dispersion throughout the range.
-24 dB/oct slopes for midrange and tweeter
Reduce overlap and minimize distortion.
Premium passive components
Air-core and steel-core coils, MOX resistors, and film capacitors ensure stability.
The Cinema M8 Tower is built from 25 mm thick High-Density Fiberboard (HDF) and internally braced for maximum stability. Its angled baffle and matte finish reduce visual distractions and early reflections, helping focus both the sound and the screen.
25 mm HDF with internal bracing
Creates a rigid, resonance-resistant enclosure.
Angled front baffle (7.5° tilt)
The angled baffle reduces standing waves and directs sound toward the listening position when placed near a wall.
Matte black, low-reflective finish
The eight layers of matte black anti-reflective paint blends into dark theater environments without screen glare.
"In our test cinema the XTZ set was able to implement 100 percent of its laboratory-determined advantages and played at a particularly high level. The perfect tonality of the entire set and its balanced dispersion characteristics which forms the basis for precise spatiality really appealed to us. Even acoustically very complex scenes from films like Lone Survivor or Edge of Tomorrow were solved wonderfully by the Cinema-M8-Set and left dialogues crystal clear above everything else without dissecting the whole picture or even destroying it.- Michael Voigt"
"The XTZ set masters the art of playing both super-detailed and extremely loud which is not possible with many affordable systems.- Thomas Odeltorp"
"The developers at XTZ know their compatriots - no wonder the XTZ Cinema series offers so much power dynamics and the proverbial bang for a buck.- Raphael Vogt+ Very neutral balanced sound+ Extreme dynamic reserves+ Ingenious subwoofer+ Flexibly combinable"
"The M8 Tower and M8 Center with the eye-catching 6-channel array of tweeters provide an ideal dispersion with ultra-low distortion. Combined with the S5 dipols and powerful SUB1X12 subwoofer the XTZ Cinema set is a real eye-catcher for rousing home theater sound at the highest level. + THX-Ultra licensed+ strong high-tonal array+ enormous dynamics"
"A speaker with 6 tweeters! XTZ M8 speaker good for music and movies -Thomas & Stereo"
Wow thats an amazing pair of speakers. I use the M8 in my dedicated home cinema with M8 Center and 2 x S5 and while other home cinema speakers are quite often not suitable for stereo music or even multi channel music the M8 Tower sounds absolutely great in Stereo. While for the home cinema I prefer a stronger bass for stereo I prefer a neutral reproduction. The M8 Tower plays very very deep but also very controlled and not with the typical bass boost. Thus I even use them in direct mode for stereo. Good job guys!
I am using the XTZ M8 with the XTZ A2-300 amplifier and they both perform really well. The angled speaker makes for a bit easier placement but it fires quite widely so you dont need to be in the sweet spot to hear everything with all the clarity. Highly recommended.
M8 Tower hösten 2017 Jag besökte Hi- End mässan i Februari 2017 och hade tillfälle att lyssna på det bästa som finns på marknaden. Jag har haft ljud-utrustning som hobby i mer än 50 år som man är ju lite luttrad och efter att gått runt i alla montrar så hamnade jag hos XTZ där de spelade på ett system med dubbel-tior och det lät fantastiskt bra. De var dock för stor för mitt ljudrum hemma så jag bestämde mig för modell M8 och speciellt lösningen på diskantelementen tilltalade mig för jag insåg att de skulle sprida de höga tonerna på ett bra sätt. Hade 2 st Klipsch 82 med dubbelåttor hemma men de sprack i det övre registret när man spelade högt. Nåväl M8 lådorna kom hem i Augusti och de kändes tunga och välbyggda redan vid paketöppningen. De ställdes upp i ett rum med 4x6 meters golvyta och mina vinylspelare började snurra med högupplösta 12 tums skivor och Ortofon M2 pickuper monterade i nya Project Experience-spelare. Signalen vandrade genom HEED RIIA-steg och rörförstärkare från Cyber-base. Oj vilken upplevelse. Mina Klipsch dömdes ut omgående och vilken baspunch de gav och hela mellanregistret med diskant lyfte direkt. Allt det jag förväntat mig uppfylldes med råge och lite till. När man får besök av bekanta som inte är vana att lyssna på välljud och de säger att mellanregistret är fantastiskt upplöst ja då blir man stolt. Basen låter som om den kommer från en betydligt större låda och fördelen är att basporten är framtill så man kan ställa upp lådorna direkt mot en vägg. Högtalarna ger en otroligt bra detaljbild och rums/stereobilden blir ung. som om man spelar i en kyrka med lite extra efterklang. Hela min skivsamling har plötsligt fått ett annat innehåll. Jag har nog varit alltför snål när jag graderat upp min musikanläggning men det är ju faktiskt högtalarna som är sist i signalvägen och skall ge resultatet ut i rummet och in i mitt huvud. Dessa högtalare kan jag varmt rekommendera för den som har plats och vill spela högt utan att tappa skärpa i ljudbilden. Man behöver knappast någon subwoofer med dessa högtalare.
Haft dem ett par veckor och är väldigt nöjd så långt. Gillar att lyssna högt och här kan man kräma på rejält utan att det skriker i öronen. Rekommenderas starkt tillsammans med en Cinema SUB 3x12 finns det inget övrigt att önska.
