The new series will start shipping from late June.
Germany - Martin Audio announced a major new dedicated installation loudspeaker range - the CDD Series - at this year's Frankfurt Prolight+Sound show. Combining distinctive curved enclosures with Coaxial Differential Dispersion technology, the series is designed to deliver class-leading performance, fidelity and coverage consistency to venues that demand the ultimate in cutting-edge technology and style.

Whether it's a bar, an AV installation, a church or a prestige nightclub, the CDD Series has it covered, says the company. CDD has been conceived as a one stop solution; six two-way full-range coaxial systems - from the micro CDD5 to the powerful CDD15, complemented by high-performance subwoofers - cover the majority of install applications; all models come in black or white as standard and all RAL colour variants are available to special order.

The CDD Series has the audience covered too. Coaxial Differential Dispersion technology delivers more consistent audience coverage than systems with fixed dispersion X° x Y° horns - projecting more output to the rear of the audience to distribute sound evenly from front-to-back, while having wide horizontal coverage close-up. This increased coverage area can reduce the speaker count in larger installations.

R&D director, Jason Baird, declared, "We didn't want to do 'just another' installation box, we really wanted to bring fresh thinking and innovation to the install market and with it deliver superior sound quality and coverage.

"With CDD we have all the benefits of coaxial point source, but because we have developed a patent pending two-part static and moving waveguide that merges with the low frequency cone we are able to maintain the dispersion pattern out to very high frequencies.

"Essentially we've advanced point source technology to bring MLA-like consistency to the more intimate spaces of the install market. The improved coverage close-up also means that CDD speakers can be spaced further apart in some instances, reducing overall speaker count."

Managing director, Luke Ireland, finished up by saying, "This is a significant landmark in Martin Audio's history but more importantly our customers are being offered a vastly superior product at a price that's significantly less than our current AQ range that CDD is replacing. It's not often that superior technology and performance are offered so competitively, but that's another reason why we expect big things for CDD in the installed sound market."
