•For small theaters

•Biamplified 3-way screen channel loudspeaker

PRODUCT INFORMATION

The CB153 full-range screen channel loudspeaker system offers small theaters cost-effective access to the future of cinema audio – 3-way loudspeaker design. Its passive mid/high biamplified design lets it replace existing biamped two-way systems without requiring new electronic crossovers or amplifiers. (Electronic crossovers settings may need to be adjusted.)

The two component system consists of a BV154C low frequency enclosure and an HK153 passive mid/high system.

Three-way design dramatically advances cinema audio quality by improving the naturalness and intelligibility of dialog, eliminating distortion from excessive driver excursion and extending pattern control into the lower octaves.

The HK153 features an 8-in MF cone transducer and a 1-in exit high frequency compression driver loaded with EAW’s patented WGP® waveguide.

The BV154C’s optimally vented enclosure uses the enclosure's resonance to increase LF response while limiting the single 15-in cone transducer's excursion. This method produces less distortion and minimizes driver strain while extending LF response to the lowest octaves.

Its 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 to allow optimum front/rear positioning of the mid/high component. The adjustable steel bracket attaching the mid/high component to the LF enclosure allows the mid/high section 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 and MF/HF sections include 2-terminal barrier strips which accomodate bare wire, tinned leads or spade lugs. The input panels are located on the sides of the enclosures for convenient access in cramped installation areas.

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