PRODUCT INFORMATION

The CB152 2-way screen channel loudspeaker system fills small theaters with all the high-impact, full-range sound encoded on today's digital soundtracks while reproducing voices clearly and naturally.

The two component system includes a BV154C vented 15-in low frequency unit and an HK152 high frequency system – a medium format 90° x 90° HF horn loading a large diaphragm 1.4-in exit compression driver.

The HK152's medium format cinema HF horn ensures even distribu- tion of HF information over the entire audience area.

The BV154C’s optimally vented enclosure uses the enclosure's resonance to increase LF response while limiting driver excursion. This method produces less distortion and minimizes driver strain while extending LF response to the lowest octaves.

The BV154C’s asymmetrical enclosure design smooths response in the LF component's upper register and minimizes the potential for standing waves inside the enclosure. Left and right side enclosures can be placed flush to a back wall while still focusing their output to the audience area. The enclosure can be inverted to provide a right or left-handed angle.

The LF enclosure has 2 mounting points on both top and bottom to allow optimum front/rear positioning of the mid/high component for either right or left channel. The bracket allows the HF horn to be aimed independently of the LF section in both the horizontal and vertical planes and can be locked once it is positioned.

The LF section includes a 2-terminal barrier strip which accomodates bare wire, tinned leads or spade lugs. The HF component uses heavy duty spring-loaded push button type connectors. Input connectors for the LF section are located on the side of the enclosure for convenient access in cramped installation areas. HF input connec- tors are directly on the compression driver.

All components feature a textured black finish to eliminate the reflection of light through perforated cinema screens.

CB152 specifications

The EAW CB152 is a remarkable loudspeaker system that exemplifies the advanced engineering and sound reproduction capabilities of Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW). Designed as a compact yet powerful solution for various sound reinforcement applications, including live events, permanent installations, and corporate environments, the CB152 stands out with its blend of versatility, reliability, and high-quality audio performance.

One of the main features of the EAW CB152 is its dual 15-inch low-frequency drivers, which deliver substantial bass response and high output levels. This is particularly beneficial for applications that demand impactful low-end presence, such as concerts and DJ performances. The integration of a specialized high-frequency compression driver ensures that the mid and high frequencies remain clear, crisp, and well-defined, allowing for a balanced sound across all frequency ranges.

The CB152 incorporates advanced technologies that enhance its performance. EAW's proprietary Dynacord technology is utilized, which optimizes the loudspeaker's sensitivity and efficiency, allowing it to produce higher sound levels with minimal distortion. This translates to a loudspeaker that not only sounds great at high volumes but also maintains audio fidelity during prolonged use.

The enclosure of the CB152 is constructed from durable plywood and features a rugged finish, designed to withstand the rigors of both mobile and installed applications. The cabinet's design is carefully tuned to minimize unwanted resonance, further enhancing the overall sound quality. Additionally, a built-in rigging system facilitates easy mounting and transport, making it a practical choice for those on the go.

In terms of connectivity, the EAW CB152 offers multiple input options, allowing for various signal types to be used seamlessly. This flexibility makes it a suitable choice for diverse audio setups, whether in a small venue or a large outdoor event.

In conclusion, the EAW CB152 loudspeaker system is characterized by its impressive sound quality, robust build, and advanced technologies. Its combination of dual 15-inch drivers, high-frequency compression technology, and practical design make it a versatile choice for professionals seeking a powerful and reliable sound reinforcement solution. Ideal for a multitude of applications, the CB152 continues to set a high standard in the audio industry.
