ISE 2018: Alcons debuts Pro-Ribbon reference surround
- Details
Featuring the patented Alcons pro-ribbon driver technology, the CRMSC-SRHV surround combines” an exceptional clarity and intelligibility with an unusually high dynamic range, offering the most realistic sound reproduction possible”.
The CRMSC-SRHV system consists of one RBN202 pro-ribbon driver for HF and a vented 6.5" mid-bass for LF reproduction. The CRMSC-SRHV HF section has an 500 W peak power input, enabling a 1:16 dynamic range with up to 90% less distortion from 1 kHz to beyond 20 kHz.
The CRMSC-SRHV is designed as matching (height layer) surround system for the CRMSC system: By utilizing identical MHF components, a perfect voicing matching between screen- and surround system is realized, resulting in an exceptionally wide and uniform sound stage throughout the entire listening area.
Typical applications include (height layer) surround sound system for premium home cinemas, high-end mix/screening rooms, quality-conscious post-production facilities and dubbing stages. As a result of Alcons’ tight manufacturing standards, all system cabinets are within "matched pair" tolerance.
The official introduction will take place at the coming ISE show in Amsterdam, as part of the Alcons Pro-Ribbon Immersive Experience. (booth 6H150).
