Contour CT212
Horn-Loaded Point Source Speaker Enclosure
Figure 1. Contour CT212
The Contour CT212 is a horn-loaded 3-way passive loudspeaker capable
of delivering a maximum SPL of 145 dB. This is a powerful speaker
that sounds full and present while still sounding intimate at lower
volumes. This horn-loaded point-source enclosure combines two 12"
low-frequency drivers with a coaxial mid-high compression driver, the
latter using a 4" plus a 2.5" voice coil. The CT212 delivers a controlled
100° x 50° dispersion pattern, maintaining constant directivity down to
200 Hz, as well as a bass response down to 55 Hz. It is a long-throw
point-source that maintains its directivity in the far field.
This loudspeaker is useful for medium to large scale installations and
live production audio. Various rigging options are available, including the
Contour Rigging System, which is applicable to both the CT212 and the
CT28. The CT212 is IP55 rated and salt water resistant, and stainless
steel 316 accessories are also available.

SUB2112 is a 2-way, bi-amped subwoofer. It can deliver a solid deep
bass response down to 25 Hz, with an upper bass that is fast-responding,
tight, and loud. This sub employs one 4000 W 21" driver with a
neodymium magnet, and two 1800-watt 12" neodymium drivers, in a
relatively compact enclosure. This powerful subwoofer is capable of
delivering a maximum SPL of 137 dB.
