The series consists of three new models, with a high level of user-researched features, including titanium compression drivers, plywood cabinets and Cerwin-Vega's exclusive HighRoad horns, for dramatically improved high-end performance and clarity.
"The INTENSE line represents a real step forward for Cerwin-Vega! and gives our customers a highly competitive alternative to the more traditional product lines in this segment," said Domenic Buonincontri, general manager, Cerwin-Vega! "For the first time, we are able to produce an entry level line with the look and the feature sets usually found only in systems costing far more. As a result, Intense is now the one to beat in this highly competitive product category."
The INT-152 is an 8-ohm, two-way, 15" passive reflex design featuring Cerwin-Vega's exclusive HighRoad horns for sound clarity. Rated at 600W, with a frequency response of 50-Hz to 20kHz, the 152 is ideally suited as a stand-alone SR solution or for augmenting with the INT-118S subwoofer. The INT-252 is a 4-ohm design that features two 15" woofers with 2.5" high temperature voice coils and Cerwin-Vega's HighRoad horns. Rated at 1000W, with a frequency response of 45 Hz to 20 kHz, the 252 gives users the flexibility to use it in stand-alone mode, arrayed or in conjunction with the 118S subwoofer.
The INT-118S subwoofer features a single 18-inch transducer with a cast aluminium frame. This subwoofer employs a 3" voice coil for sustained power handling, the largest in its class. With a frequency response of 38 Hz to 500 Hz, the 118S is rated at 500W and can provide ample low-end fullness for a wide variety of SR applications.
"Our new Intense line continues to demonstrate the direction that the Cerwin-Vega! brand is headed," continued Buonincontri. "Premium feature sets, the finest materials and construction as well as highly competitive pricing is what we promise our customers. We're very proud of this new line and believe that it offers a real alternative to the product currently available in the market."
