The W8CT utilises a total of 6 x 1" (25mm) exit high frequency drivers, optimised for maximum efficiency in the band from 3.5kHz upwards. The 1" (25mm) exit drivers used are extremely efficient in this band and can produce enormous high frequency energy by virtue of their vertical line array configuration. Use of 1" (25mm) exit drivers is additionally important as it means that the HF array elements can be more closely spaced.

Further down the audio band, from 750Hz-3.5kHz, 3 x high- mid devices are again arranged vertically-in-line for maximum throw. Each high-mid device is a sophisticated design featuring a 6.5" (165mm) driver loaded by a toroidal phase plug and constant coverage horn moulding.
