Tannoy CMS 401DCE 4" Full Range Directional Ceiling Loudspeaker with Dual Concentric Driver for Installation Applications, Blind Mount, 240W Peak Power, White, Single

The Tannoy CMS401 DCe is a full bandwidth ceiling monitor system suited to high-level music and speech reinforcement applications requiring exceptional sonic quality with uncompromised reliability. The CMS401 DCe features Tannoy's exclusive point source Dual Concentric driver. The mid-bass and tweeter sections are coincidentally aligned to a true point source; ensuring a wide and controlled dispersion for optimum coverage; this while avoiding the massive loss of energy, in the vertical plane at the crossover frequency, inherent in two-way discreet designs.

This point source, constant directivity drive unit comprises a 100mm (4.00") multi fiber paper pulp mid bass cone and a 19mm (0.75") ferrofluid cooled, titanium dome HF unit with neodymium magnet system. The WideBand high frequency unit in the Dual ensures that this drive unit delivers an exceptionally detailed and open sound stage for unrivalled intelligibility. Extending the bandwidth gives percussive sounds more reality and impact, with vocals and instruments clearly more separate and distinct. This design, with extended frequency response and very low distortion, is equipped with dynamic high frequency protection.

The driver and passive frequency-dividing network are mounted in an injection-molded pod. This, like the ceiling mounting ring in which the pod can be swiveled, is manufactured from UV/weather resistant UL94V-0 ABS material. The inclusion of a premium quality Tannoy THP 30 multi-tap transformer, for distributed-line operation, provides high system sensitivity, wide bandwidth and dynamic range; achieved with very low insertion loss.

Specifically designed for fast, simple and cost effective installation in new and existing buildings, the CMS401 DCe can be entirely angled towards the listener within the fixed ceiling-mounting ring. The challenge of difficult speaker placement, in less than perfect room configurations, is therefore eliminated by being able to discreetly pivot the loudspeaker towards the desired area of coverage.
