Description

The C3L-A large Tier 3 in-ceiling loudspeaker is a new and invaluable addition to the Creator Series. ‘A’ stands for ‘Angle’, and the speaker consists of a fixed-angle IDC II (Inverted Dual Concentric) that delivers a ‘spotlight’ effect that focusses and directs the mid-range and high-frequency sound into the listening area for improved intelligibility and clarity.

The completely redesigned IDC II is set at 25 degrees and delivers focused sound across the full frequency range into the listening area, making it an ideal in-ceiling LCR (Left, Centre and Right) speaker where in-wall speakers aren’t possible.

Supported with the lightweight, pistonic RDT III (Rigid Diaphragm Technology) cone and an extensive motor system to drive it, the soundstage and dynamic range are highly impressive. C3L-A is ideal for creating a discreet home theatre and multi-channel music solution that offers high-fidelity performance, detail, clarity, and deep, controlled bass.

It has a cut-out diameter of 248 mm and uses the Quik-Link speaker cable connecter, which revolutionises the ease and speed of speaker installation. Tri-Grip technology is also utilised for a simple, reliable, and strong fitment.

  • Ideal for installations where high-performance acoustics are desired
  • Angled IDC II projects sound into the room for pin-point accuracy
