Aluminium is a metal made for sound. Like steel strings and brass sections, in the right hands it can send the spirits soaring. Its combination of lightness, strength and stiffness is a godsend to engineers, including our own who have used the metal to create some of our sweetest-sounding drive units.

But we’re attached to aluminium for another reason. It looks – and feels – as good as it sounds. Few materials satisfy form and function with such liquid elegance. Whether it’s shining in sheets on an Airstream trailer, flowing around the frame of a Charles Eames chair, clinging to the body of an Aston Martin DB9 or sleekly, snugly safeguarding our sounds on an iPod, aluminium is the metal for modern living.

Which brings us to the B&W XT Series: speakers for music or home theatre use that encase leadingedge acoustic engineering in slimline aluminium cabinets. Audiophile performance and cultured, contemporary design, equally at home in traditional living rooms or modern apartments. The XT2 is a compact, two-way system. The XT8 is a full, threeway speaker. And the aptly-named XTC is a twoway system designed primarily for centre speaker use. Look, listen and lose yourself in admiration for the XT Series.
