Technical Specifications CB2592
COMPONENTS & CONSTRUCTION
The CB2592 is a biamplified, high output, two-way, full range
loudspeaker system intended for use in cinema applications. It
features 4x 15-in low frequency transducers mounted in two com-
pact, vented enclosures and a 2-in exit titanium diaphragm com-
pression driver mounted to a large format 90
°
x 40
°
constant
directivity horn.
The CB2592 requires an external active electronic crossover. The
recommended crossover point is 500 Hz.
The low frequency enclosure is constructed of 3/4-in thick Medium
Density Fiberboard (MDF) with the exception of the baffle which is
15mm void-free, cross-grain-laminated Baltic birch plywood. Exten-
sive internal bracing is employed to minimize panel resonances
resulting from the large acoustical energies generated within the
enclosures.
The high frequency horn is constructed from a specially dampened
fiberglass which is non-resonant, lightweight and non-reflective.
The LF section includes a two-terminal barrier strip that accomodates
bare wire, tinned leads or spade lugs. The HF component uses heavy
duty spring-loaded push button type connectors. Input connectors
for the LF sections are located on the side of the enclosure for
convenient access in cramped installation areas. HF input connec-
tors are directly on the compression driver.
The adjustable mounting bracket attaching the HF horn to the LF
enclosure can be positioned at one of three mounting points for
optimum HF horn placement. It allows the HF horn to be aimed
independently of the LF section in both the horizontal and vertical
planes and can be locked once it is positioned.
