Overview
Fluance's SXHTBW is a 5.0 channel passive speaker system in real walnut veneer cabinets, rated at 160 watts total power and wired for connection to a separate AV receiver rather than plugging in on its own.
Because this is a five-speaker set without a built-in amplifier, its home theater performance depends on the receiver driving it, not on the speakers alone. The natural walnut veneer points to a furniture-grade finish over the plastic cabinets common at this size. At 32.5 pounds for the full set, it is heavier than typical satellite speaker packages, suggesting larger individual enclosures.
- 5.0 channel speaker set
- 160W rated power
- Natural walnut veneer finish
- 32.5 lb total weight
Who it's for
Fits someone who already owns, or plans to buy, a separate AV receiver and wants a matched 5.0 speaker set to build a home theater around. Not a fit for anyone expecting an all-in-one soundbar style setup, since there is no amplifier or subwoofer channel included here.
Pros and cons
- Real walnut veneer cabinets
- 5.0 channel layout covers front, center, surround
- 160 watt rated power handling
- Requires a separate AV receiver to power it
- No subwoofer included in the 5.0 setup
Performance notes
As a passive design, the SXHTBW's output is set by whatever receiver drives its 160 watt rated load through speaker wire, not by the speakers on their own. The 5.0 channel layout covers front, center and surround duties but leaves low-end extension to a separate subwoofer if one is added. Cabinet weight in the 32.5 pound range for the set points to denser wood construction than lighter composite alternatives.
