Characteristics - Sound Properties

The CT MAIN 170 speaker was originally developed as a main loudspeaker for home video applications but is equally well suited to listening to hi-fi music. This enclosed 3-way cabinet features a front baffle arrangement based on the D'Appolito principle arranged symmetrically around the 25 mm titanium SC 4 ND 4 Ohm tweeter with Neodymium magnets. The loudspeakers used, W 100 SC 4 Ohm and W 170 SC 4 Ohm, are magnetically shielded. In order to suppress any unwanted interference by the baffle on the radiation pattern, the entire mid- to high-range unit is not positioned in the middle of the cabinet, but towards the inner side. The linear frequency response of the speaker is 80 Hz 20,000 Hz, which produces a total Q-rating of 0.7 in combination with the vertical beaming effect, and a total SPL of over 108 dB, corresponding to the THX® requirements. The CT MAIN 170 can equally well be used in small or large rooms. Mounted on a stand, the cabinet becomes an column speaker. The CT MAIN 170 produces precise bass reproduction and an exceptionally well balanced sound experience that is able to compete with live music. Even high volume settings will come over naturally and will not lead to distortion. The designers placed emphasis on high 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 CENTER 130 or CT CENTER 170 centre speakers, the CT DIPOL 130 effect speaker and the SUB T-36 subwoofer. The virtually perfect reproduction of the sound channels is so close to the original that the listener feels as if they are personally involved in the action. Makes films into an experience.

CT MAIN 170 is part of the combinations:
System CT 170 A
System CT 170 B
System CT 170 C
System CT 170 D

Construction

The cabinet consists of 19 mm boards and a 16 mm double baffle. The side piece, top and base of the medium range chamber are, at the same time, cabinet stiffeners. First of all, make the necessary cut-outs in the cabinet panels and apply the chamfers to the double baffle. Once the cabinet has been made up, prepare the mounts for the woofer and the mid-range drivers. Finally, fit the speaker drivers. If required, a stand can be made using the same size as the cabinet base to the required height.

Inner damping

The damping of the speaker uses half a mat of damping material stuffed into the medium range cabinet. The rest is used for the bass section.
