Tannoy 8001 7420 CMS 503DC BM 5" Ceiling Speaker, Blind Mount Version

Info

Priced individually but only sold in pairs!

Together these technologies provide more consistent and controlled directivity along with improved high frequency response. Improved time-alignment and greater coherence between LF and HF results in a wider sweet spot for enhanced performance both on and off-axis. The re-designed baffle provides a subtle extension to the waveguide effect for additional sonic benefits.

The CMS 503DC uses a 130 mm (5 inch) Dual Concentric driver, featuring treated multi-fibre paper pulp cone and a 20 mm (0.79 inch) PEI dome HF compression driver with Torus Ogive waveguide. Driven by a single powerful magnet, the new CMS 503DC driver offers a true 90 degree conical dispersion pattern across its 70 Hz – 54 kHz (PI Backcan version) response and 89 dB/Watt sensitivity. The driver is capable of handling 120 Watt programme material with 240 Watt peaks for longevity under even the harshest usage conditions.
