Sleek, compact and more than equipped for the detail and nuances that movie
sound demands, the CM Centre is the perfect centre channel speaker for a small
to medium-sized home theatre system featuring CM Series speakers.
The
two-way speaker features two 130mm Kevlar® cone drivers handling the midrange
and the bass, while a Nautilus tube-loaded aluminium dome tweeter keeps high
frequencies crisp and sharp all the way up to 50kHz and beyond.
The
quality of CM Series drive units has made it possible to use minimalist
crossovers throughout the whole range. The resulting gentle transition between
drivers avoids the unnaturally rapid changes in dispersion that bedevil more
complex designs, while the high quality components, carefully chosen after
exhaustive listening tests, ensure that as little as possible gets between you
and the sound of the original recording.
All CM Series speakers come with
aluminium driver trims. Grilles attach magnetically, so there are no unsightly
grille-mounting features to spoil the clean lines of the speaker’s façade. For
the finish, you can choose either one of two real-wood veneers in Rosenut or
Wengé, or a highly polished gloss black.
