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.

For the Custom Theatre range we have taken our development of the NautilusTM-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.

CT800 Series

Pure performance, without compromise. CT800 combines reference-quality power, clarity and control with speakers that can be custom-fitted into a theater room. Experience everything from the roar of a jet engine to the creak of a staircase in extraordinarily life-like detail. For our top-of-the-range Custom Theater Series, we have incorporated technologies from our iconic 800 Series and Nautilus speakers to create an integrated speaker system that delivers an authentic theatre experience.

Every moment, unforgettable

Don’t just hear the sound; feel it too. With the choice of dynamic subwoofers, high-performance center channel speakers and three-way loudspeakers, positioned perfectly in your home cinema, CT800 makes every movie moment an unforgettable one.
