Control 328C has been engineered from the ground up to deliver exceptional next-generation performance in a coaxial point source design ceiling loudspeaker. The combination of the low frequency cone and the shaped mounting baffle performs as a true 12 inch (300 mm) diameter waveguide for the high frequencies. A unique metal throat transitions seemlessly to the horn to eliminate high frequency beaming which is common among this category of speaker. The result is a coaxial speaker with wide, extremely consistent 120° coverage on a broadband basis. The transformer version Control 328CT comes with a pre-attached top quality, low saturation 60 Watt multi-tap transformer for 70V/100V distributed speaker lines.
Consistent 120° broadband pattern control covers an extremely large area
Shaped mounting baffle provides the pattern control of a 300 mm (12 in) horn from a 200 mm (8 in) driver
200 mm (8 in) woofer with Kevlarreinforced cone and 50 mm (2 in) voice-coil
25 mm (1 inch exit) compression driver
