CM82-EZ specifications

The Phase Technology CM82-EZ is a premium ceiling mounted speaker specifically designed to deliver exceptional audio performance in both residential and commercial settings. Known for its high-quality sound reproduction and versatility, the CM82-EZ speaker is engineered to blend seamlessly with modern interiors while providing an immersive listening experience.

One of the standout features of the CM82-EZ is its innovative 8-inch woofer, which is designed to produce deep and rich bass responses. This is complemented by a 1-inch soft dome tweeter that ensures clear and detailed high frequencies. Together, these components create a balanced sound profile that is suitable for a variety of audio applications, from home theater setups to music distribution in commercial spaces.

The CM82-EZ employs Phase Technology’s proprietary technology known as "Phase Coherent" design. This allows for a time-aligned sound that minimizes phase distortion, providing listeners with a more accurate representation of the original audio source. Additionally, the speaker includes a specially designed enclosure that enhances bass response while reducing unwanted resonances, which is particularly beneficial in ceiling installations where space can be limited.

Installation of the CM82-EZ is made easy through its user-friendly design. The speaker features a low-profile design that enables it to fit flush with the ceiling, allowing for a clean aesthetic. Furthermore, the speaker is equipped with a wide range of mounting hardware and features a grid-style mounting system that simplifies the process of fixing the speaker securely in place.

Another notable characteristic of the CM82-EZ is its wide dispersion pattern. This feature ensures that sound is evenly distributed across a large area, making it an ideal choice for open spaces or larger rooms where comprehensive audio reach is essential. The speaker has a power handling capacity of up to 100 watts, making it robust enough to handle a variety of audio sources without distortion.

Overall, the Phase Technology CM82-EZ combines elegant design with superior audio performance, making it an excellent choice for those looking to enhance their space with high-quality sound. Its advanced technologies and thoughtful construction ensure that it stands out as a leader in the ceiling speaker market, providing users with an optimal auditory experience.
