Technical Specifications CB150x
COMPONENTS & CONSTRUCTION
The CB150x is a compact, passive, three-way, high-output, full
range loudspeaker system intended for use in behind-screen cinema
applications. The two component system consists of a BV153C low
frequency enclosure and an HK200 passive mid/high system.
The system requires no external active electronic crossover. An
internal passive crossover/filter network integrates all subsystems.
EAW's complex, computer-designed passive filter networks are
tightly aligned to the loudspeakers they control and go beyond
merely dividing the signal, performing critical equalization func-
tions.
The BV153C low frequency component features a single 15-in low
frequency driver mounted in a slim, vented enclosure for excellent
bass extension and high output level capability.
The HK200 mid/high component features a 1-in exit compression
driver loaded with EAW’s proprietary WGP® (Wave Guide Plate) and
a direct radiating 7-in cone transducer covering the entire vocal
range.
The LF cabinet is constructed of 3/4-in Medium Density Fiberboard
(MDF) with the exception of the baffle, which is constructed of
15mm void-free, 18-ply-to-the-inch Baltic birch plywood. The mid/
high enclosure is constructed entirely of the same MDF. Extensive
internal bracing is provided for both the LF and mid/high sections.
The enclosures and all external parts are coated with a flat black
polyurethane finish.
The input connector is a 2-terminal barrier strip located on the side
of the LF enclosure for convenient access in cramped installation
areas. A jumper cable is provided to extend the signal chain to the
mid/high component.
The adjustable steel bracket attaching the mid/high component to
the LF enclosure allows the mid/high section to be aimed indepen-
dently of the LF section in both the horizontal and vertical planes
and can be locked once it is positioned. The LF enclosure has 2
mounting points to allow optimum front/rear positioning of the
mid/high component.
