Acoustic design at your fingertips
Sound designers know that every room is different when it comes to acoustics. Some can be warm and inviting, others cold and abrasive. The CBT 1000 gives you more control for dealing with difficult spaces by offering asymmetrical coverage settings. This versatile array consists of six 6-1/2" low-frequency drivers and 24 high-frequency drivers. This combination provides exceptional front-to-back room coverage. But this is just the beginning. With the CBT 1000, the vertical coverage pattern is individually adjustable via four “Pattern Up” coverage angles and four “Pattern Down” coverage angles for a total of 16 different coverage combinations — no DSP processing required.
