Power & Performance

• Design: Single-driver, acoustic suspension (sealed) reference subwoofer
• Crossover: Low-pass filter, variable 30 Hz – 140 Hz (with bypass option via app)
• Frequency Response (On-Axis): +/- 3 dB from 20 Hz – 140 Hz
• Frequency Response (30° Off-Axis): N/A (Subwoofer omnidirectional execution)
• Sensitivity (Room / Anechoic): N/A (Active subwoofer execution)
• Impedance: N/A (Driven internally by dedicated active amplifier plant)
• Low Frequency Extension: 14 Hz (DIN)
• Suitable Amplifier Power Range: N/A (Active design)
• Maximum Input Power: 1,100 Watts RMS / 2,200 Watts Dynamic Peak (Ultra-High-Efficiency Class-D)
• Performance: The Paradigm XR11 Anniversary Edition is an ultra-exclusive, limited-production reference subwoofer commissioned to celebrate Paradigm's 40-year legacy of scientific acoustic design. Mirroring the heavy-duty internal architecture of the standard XR11, this special edition subwoofer delivers an astonishing 1,100W RMS of internal power and a seismic 14 Hz low-frequency extension. While maintaining a highly compact, room-friendly sealed footprint, the Anniversary Edition features hand-selected internal electronic component matrices with ultra-tight tolerances to extract unparalleled micro-detail, speed, and timing from the lower registers. It is the ultimate statement piece for luxury dedicated home theaters, delivering crushing physical impacts and pristine musical accuracy paired with a rare collector's aesthetic.

Audio Features & Drivers

• 11-inch Ultra-High-Excursion CARBON-X™ Unibody Bass Driver: Formed from a single seamless sheet of carbon-fiber-reinforced composite. This provides an ultra-low-mass profile with incredible structural rigidity, ensuring that the cone face completely resists flexing or warping under intense dynamic peaks.
• Dual-Motor Ultra Long Throw Trilinear Suspension: A massive multi-motor platform supported by a heavy-duty dual-spider centering layout. It mechanically guides the voice coil from both sides, ensuring perfectly linear piston travel when pushing the driver to its absolute physical stroke limits.
• Extreme-Stiffness Split Coil Construction: Features two voice coils wound with opposing turns on a rigid, ventilated Apical™ former. This geometry effectively cancels out physical motor non-linearities, allowing the driver to handle massive electrical current while remaining perfectly controlled.
• High-Temperature Voice Coil Wiring: The motor assemblies utilize specialized heavy-gauge internal wire leads insulated with aerospace-grade adhesives rated to 450°F (232°C), preventing long-duration thermal power compression artifacts.
• Gen3 ART™ (Active Ridge Technology) Surrounds: The 11-inch driver features overmolded thermoplastic elastomer surrounds utilizing a specialized Vertical Mounting System. This pleated edge allows for greater linear throw, yielding a 3 dB gain in output headroom and a 50% drop in distortion.

Streaming & Connectivity

• Flexible Input Signal Panel: Fully loaded with dual unbalanced RCA inputs (Stereo or Mono LFE), a balanced premium XLR (LFE) connection, and left/right speaker-level high-input binding terminals to adapt to any stereo pre-amplifier or multi-channel AV processor.
• Isolated Signal Input Grounding: The entire rear terminal block is structurally isolated from internal AC loop paths, completely eliminating the common "subwoofer hum" caused by ground loop anomalies.
• Comprehensive Wireless Control App: Features a dedicated mobile control app available on iOS and Android. This allows users to easily manage master volume, phase (0°-180°), low pass filter slope, and target DSP profiles straight from their main listening seat.
• Anthem Room Correction (ARC® Genesis): Includes a premium calibrated microphone and full access to ARC® Genesis software. This system digitally analyzes your specific room reflections, ironing out bloated standing bass waves caused by nearby furniture or boundary corners.
• Capacitive Touchscreen Control: Employs a flush, sleek touch control interface embedded directly into the rear amplifier face plate, allowing for easy manual volume adjustments without a smartphone.

Comfort & Dimensions

• Exclusive Anniversary Finishes: Dressed strictly in limited-run luxury color configurations honoring the 40th anniversary—including the striking Azure Ice, Frozen Charcoal, and Ruby Frostbite hand-rubbed multi-coat lacquers.
• Advanced Shock-Mount™ Isolation Feet: Supported by heavy-duty, multi-layered outrigger feet that combine different durometer rubbers and metal matrices. This dual-decoupling system keeps intense physical box vibrations from vibrating into wood or tile floors, instantly tightening up bass control.
• Overall Dimensions: 16.2” (41.2cm) Height x 15.3” (38.8cm) Width x 16.9” (42.9cm) Depth.
• Unit Weight: 65.1 lbs (29.0 kg) — A remarkably dense, heavy mass reflecting the thick 2-inch MDF front baffle plane, internal reinforcement matrices, and massive magnet motor structure.
• Sonically Transparent Fabric Grille: Includes an ultra-low-profile grille frame wrapped in acoustically transparent black cloth, keeping the face of the subwoofer looking clean and minimal.

Design & Build

• Cascade-Fusion™ Enclosure Bracing: The interior features thick, non-uniform internal reinforcement webs that break up internal back-wave pressure pulses, preventing the sealed box from flexing or coloring the acoustic workspace.
• 2-Inch Thick Dense MDF Front Baffle: The face of the cabinet is constructed from an ultra-thick, machined 2-inch MDF slab. This serves as an unyielding structural backbone to withstand the violent forces generated by the 11-inch woofer.
• Finned Aluminum Heat Sink: The rear plate amplifier is equipped with a custom-finned heavy exterior aluminum heat sink that channels thermal energy away from the Class-D electronics module for years of reliable, cool operation.
• 3-Mode Custom DSP Matrix: Loaded with three tailored listening profiles: Movie (maximizing low-end impact), Music (prioritizing tight, flat-line accuracy), and Night (compressing dynamic peaks to prevent sound bleed into nearby bedrooms).
• Hand-Built in Canada: Fully engineered, prototyped, and meticulously hand-assembled under rigid quality controls at Paradigm’s premier manufacturing plant in Ontario, Canada.
