More sound in a compact footprint!
The Cambridge Audio MSX 20 is a compact passive satellite speaker for demanding stereo, surround, and home theater systems. Two 2.25" full-range BMR drivers work together to deliver a wide, even, spacious sound. One of the two Balanced Mode Radiator drivers handles a greater share of the low frequencies, extending bass response. With a frequency response of 120 Hz to 20,000 Hz, 88 dB sensitivity, 8-ohm impedance, and power handling of up to 200 watts, the MSX 20 combines a small footprint with impressive dynamics. Its flexible design allows vertical or horizontal placement and even use as a center speaker.
Two 2.25" Balanced Mode Radiator drivers
The MSX 20 uses two 2.25" full-range BMR drivers. Balanced Mode Radiator technology combines a dynamic drive unit with bending-wave radiation, distributing sound more evenly throughout the room than many conventional compact speakers. One BMR supports the midrange and bass in particular, while the second focuses on enhancing low-frequency reproduction. This gives the sound more body, depth, and spacious presence without requiring a large speaker cabinet.
A wide soundstage for music and movies
The BMR design reduces dependence on a fixed central listening position. Sound spreads widely throughout the room, making the speaker an excellent choice for music, TV, movies, and multichannel surround systems. The 120 Hz to 20,000 Hz frequency response enables balanced reproduction with intelligible dialogue, precise detail, and powerful low-frequency performance for such a compact design. Sensitivity of 88 dB at 2.83 Vrms also supports efficient operation.
Up to 200 watts power handling and 8 ohms
With maximum power handling of 200 watts and a recommended amplifier power of 25 to 200 watts, the MSX 20 integrates easily into a variety of hi-fi and AV systems. Its impedance is 8 ohms. This makes the speaker suitable for compact stereo systems as well as powerful AV receivers. Die-cast aluminum reinforcements stabilize the cabinet and reduce unwanted distortion, helping maintain controlled sound even during dynamic passages.
Use as a satellite or center speaker
The MSX 20 offers flexible placement. You can use it vertically as a conventional satellite speaker, place it horizontally, or use it as a center channel in a multichannel system. This versatility makes it easy to build a discreet home theater system in a wide range of living spaces. For even deeper bass, pair the speaker with a separate powered subwoofer.
Wall mounting and compact integration
A wall mount and rubber feet are included. This lets you mount the MSX 20 on a wall or place it securely on a shelf, sideboard, or table. Despite its two drivers, the speaker remains exceptionally compact. It is an excellent choice if you want genuine stereo or surround sound without having to place large speakers in the room.
For modular hi-fi and surround systems
The MSX 20 can be used on its own as a center or surround speaker, or combined with additional speakers to build a complete multichannel system. Dual-BMR technology, extended frequency response, and high power handling provide a capable foundation. The result is a space-saving audio solution that delivers clear speech, precise music reproduction, and immersive movie sound effects with equal confidence.
