Characteristics and sound properties
CT CENTER 170 is based on the CT MAIN 170 main loudspeakers and acts as a Centre Speaker, where the only difference is that it is designed to lie on its side. Since the speaker arrangement and crossover unit are identical in every respect, this centre system is ideal for use with THX® systems. With its linear frequency response of 80 Hz 20,000 Hz in an enclosed cabinet with a total Q-rating of 0.7, the required vertical beaming and a maximum sound pressure of 108 dB, this system leaves nothing to be desired. The loudspeakers used, W 100 SC 4 Ohm and W 170 SC 4 Ohm, are magnetically shielded and the shielding of the complete speaker unit corresponds to THX® regulations (3-Gaussian curve). This means that the entire speaker can also serve as a stand for a TV set. The speaker is a titanium dome tweeter with a neodym magnet. The CT CENTER 170 can also be used as a main loudspeaker and, because of its overall dimensions, can be placed on top of a SUB T-36 subwoofer which is lying on its side.This speaker has extremely clear bass reproduction with a well-balanced overall sound quality, providing a realistic impression of live sound. Even high volume settings come across naturally and undistorted. The designers placed emphasis on hig impedance, so that the speakers can be connected up to virtually any amplifier with no problems. We recommend using this system in conjunction with CT MAIN 170 main loudspeakers, the CT DIPOL 130 effect speaker and the SUB T-36 subwoofer. The realistic sound reproduction especially for films is so close to the original that the listener feels as if they are right in the thick of it. This system is a joy to listen to.
