Top-quality components and the sophisticated crossover guarantee precise signal resolution and high maximum sound pressure levels. A high-frequency horn newly developed using BEM simulation ensures even directivity up to the very highest frequencies. Whether as an unobtrusive high-performance stage monitor, an elegant front-fill on the edge of the stage or a compact club PA system together with a CS 118 or CS 218 subwoofer, the CX 8 always ensures first-class results.
