Published: September 3, 2025

Waterfall Audio will debut its Niagara XT3 loudspeaker at CEDIA Expo 2025, marking the latest addition to the company’s luxury Niagara XT series. The unveiling takes place at distributor Selective Design’s booth (#1729) at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver.

Crafted in France, the Niagara XT3 reflects Waterfall’s approach of blending high-end acoustic performance with distinctive design. The loudspeaker is built from 10 mm Safety Platinum glass and features 11 precision-machined components, including a glass horn tweeter that is mechanically decoupled from the enclosure. The tweeter, hand-assembled in the company’s South of France facility, is designed to deliver medium and high frequencies with clarity and precision.

The Niagara XT3 measures 46 inches tall and is rated for 500 watts of output. Its driver complement includes two ATOHM LD180 7-inch bass-midrange units, an 8-inch UFR210 passive radiator, and a premium neodymium silk dome tweeter integrated with the horn. Low-frequency extension is managed by an infra-low driver housed in a solid aluminum base. The speaker also incorporates Waterfall’s proprietary JETSTREAM damping system, which uses an aluminum turbine structure to control rear wave reflections and improve airflow for bass response.

Design details extend to Nappa leather accents, oversized connectors, and custom crossovers. The XT3 will be available in the U.S. and Canada beginning September 2025, completing the Niagara XT line alongside the XT1 and XT2 models, which feature wood horn tweeters.

Waterfall Audio, founded in 1996, has built a reputation for glass-constructed loudspeakers that combine performance and visual impact. Its products are distributed in more than 50 countries and have received multiple awards for design and acoustics.
