Alcons extends studio and residential solutions
- Details
The system features Alcons signature-sound, based on the Alcons pro-ribbon driver.
The amplifier-efficient 2-way passive-filtering crosses a vented 8” mid-bass driver with the RBN401 pro-ribbon driver. With a lowest-usable LF response of 58Hz, the CRMS-SRHV can be used as stand-alone monitor, or can be combined with a subwoofer; the MHF section has an 800 W peak power input, enabling a 1:15 dynamic range with up to 90% less distortion to beyond 20 kHz.
The patented 90-degree horizontal offers a wide horizontal and a tight vertical coverage up to the highest frequencies; Very important for the seamless imaging in base channels of immersive systems.
Due to the “compression-less” principle of the pro-ribbon transducer, the system has a linear response at any SPL; in combination with Alcons Audio’s tight manufacturing tolerance within 1dB, making each system a “matched-pair”, the CRMS-SRHV is a perfect choice for critical reference monitoring.
Philip de Haan, head of Alcons Audio R&D comments, “The strongly increased demand from the studio and residential markets for Alcons pro-ribbon systems led to the development of the CRMS-SRHV/9040 speaker. Needless to say, ‘immersive’ is the leading audio theme today and with our religious commitment to delivering the most true audio experience in any application, we are continuously expanding our range of solutions.”
