Description
Bowers & Wilkins CT8 LR 3-way Closed-box System (Each)
Front speaker: CT8 LR
Stationed to the left and right of the screen are two upright speakers. The CT8 LR features a spherical midrange/tweeter head that can be tilted towards the listener to retain a focused delivery, plus twin 10” bass units, as in the surround speaker.
Tweeter
For the Custom Theatre range we have taken our development of the Nautilus™-derived tube-loaded tweeter a stage further.
Following the same principle as our adaptation of the midrange tube (see opposite), we’ve replaced the single, long tube with a whirl of tightly-packed, smaller channels contained in a shallow cup, each of which absorbs a portion of the unwanted sound energy from the back of the diaphragm.
Even at frequencies well beyond human hearing, this tweeter sings like a bird.
