CW180R / CW180S 8" Coaxial Speaker System
The CW180R/CW180S provides a high performance in-wall
CustomSound solution for in-ceiling and space restricted
installations. Clever engineering and world-class industrial design
combine in the PSB CW180 coaxial in-wall loudspeakers. Special
attention has been paid to the issue of aiming sonic energy toward
the listener without forfeiting sonic integrity. Available in round or
square versions (CW180R and CW180S) each employ the same
Platinum-derived eight-inch woofer and dome tweeter as the
CW383, re-engineered for a two-way layout. The PSB coaxial in-
walls use a unique high frequency, constant directivity SonicGuide™
that is gimbaled to angle in any direction. The SonicGuide™ is
a proprietary extensively adjustable and aimable, multipart fl are
attached to a 1" metal dome tweeter. Its contours and dimensions
are designed such that it provides very even response with little
variation both on and off axis. It also increases the directivity of the
tweeter so that the listener hears transparent, naturally focused
sound. Equally important, SonicGuide reduces "backwards" tweeter
energy that otherwise refl ects from the woofer cone, thus eliminating
a serious response error that plagues virtually every other "coax"
speaker. The SonicGuide can be tilted 30 degrees left or right and
the whole assembly turned through 90 degrees.
"Dog leg" style mounting clips insure quick and easy mounting.
Two response tailoring switches provide adjustment to midrange
and tweeter levels. Whether mounted in the wall or in the ceiling
the system's response can be directed toward the listener for best
possible sound. The result is very natural sound quality and great
installation versatility.
