Thanks to a patent-pending gimbal mechanism known as Controlled Dispersion Technology (CDT) both the high and low frequencies of the CDT-5800-C II can be directed towards the listening area. With the 100°, Titanium compression driver (tweeter) symmetrical Tractrix Horn, directing sound is more accurate than a typical dome tweeter which disperses a wider breadth of sound, leading to more reflected sounds that blur sonic details.
The refined, 8-inch Cerametallic woofer also has great positioning capabilities. It can rotate a full 360° and then shift 15° in any direction. The addition of a Linear Travel Suspension to the tweeter increases high-frequency detail and smoothness. Other professional-grade features such as a premium network and treble and bass contour switches help the CDT-5800-C II establish a new benchmark in architectural audio excellence.
