Meet Alcons Audio's Latest Creation: CRMSC-SRHV/120 2-Way Speaker​

(January 31, 2019) The model name might not catch your eye, but Alcons Audio’s latest reference 2-way passive speaker is certainly a looker. The all-new CRMSC-SRHV120 is a compact horizontal and vertical reference surround that features Alcons patented pro-ribbon driver transducer technology.

The pro-ribbon driver is one of the CRMSC-SRHV120’s touted features, one that Alcons says issues “exceptional clarity and intelligibility with a usually high dynamic range.” Paired with a vented 6.5” Neodymium mid-bass woofer, the pro-ribbon and its revolvable RBN waveguide helps to produce a very wide vertical (90-degrees) and horizontal (120-degrees) dispersion pattern that extends the “stereo sweet spot” over a large area. Additionally, the high frequency section of the speaker has a 500 watt peak power input that allows for a 1:16 dynamic range “with up to 90% less distortion from 1 kHz to beyond 20 kHz.”

The speaker offers mounting flexibility for both horizontal and vertical applications, along with a choice of two impedance versions (4 ohms and 8 ohms). The company also says the CRMSC-SRHV120’s Signal Integrity Sensing pre-wired cable compensation insures response accuracy regardless of cable length and system impedance when paired with an amplified loudspeaker controller (ALC).

The CRMSC-SRHV120 is designed for commercial cinema, studio, and home use. The speaker will be integrated as part of a StormAudio/Alcons Audio system at ISE 2019. You can read more about that system, here. Attendees can find the system in Hall 6-H150.

I've always liked this company and these look very cool. I'm curious what they sound like.

I'm curious too, Matt. Neat concept. You can use these as surrounds or ceiling channels. I'd like to see some size/weight specs. They weren't available last week.
