Blaze Audio CBL528-BA Constant Beamwidth point source speaker with Blaze 180° symmetrical horizontal pattern control, passive, bi-amped

Designed for use in fitness centers, conference halls, commercial theaters, Houses of Worship, and more, the CBL528 constant beamwidth loudspeaker brings quality, coverage, and consistency to any permanent installation or live sound application. With a symmetrical dispersion pattern, the CBL528 ensures that every listener hears consistent sound quality, no matter where they are in the room. Four 5” low-frequency drivers and eight 2” mid-high frequency drivers faithfully deliver detailed audio across a frequency range of 54Hz to 18kHz, ensuring clear and natural sound reproduction for music and speech. The CBL528 loudspeaker's bi-amped design allows for seamless system integration with Blaze amplifiers (sold separately), making it an ideal choice for permanent installations in various venues. Additionally, its ultra-low distortion drivers and highly precise directional characteristics ensure consistent frequency response across the entire range, regardless of the listening angle. Its 131 dB SPL peak rating also means that audio is delivered with maximum impact. Your message is important. What they hear is more important. Get it out clearly with the Blaze Audio CBL528.
