“The Ar-4xa is the improved version of the world´s most widely used high fidelity speaker system, the AR-4x. The AR-4xa uses the same acoustic suspension woofer as its predecessor, but incorporates a new tweeter and a modified crossover network. The 32 mm tweeter is the same as that used in the highly acclaimed AR-6 speaker system, giving the AR-4xa improved treble response and dispersion characteristics.” This quote is from my 1969 Acoustic Research magazine.
The Records and Recording Magazine writes “Excellent performance… a steady frequency response which many more expensive systems would find it difficult to equal… this unit, measured objectively, confirmed fully what I expected to find after listening to it with a wide range of programme material. The AR-4x is a loudspeaker of very high quality, made and designed to high technical standards. It is not very often that one finds such a completely successful enterprise as this
