PRODUCT INFORMATION
The CB2591 large format 2-way screen loudspeaker system is
designed to meet all THX requirements for large theaters. The
CB2591 is approved by the THX division of Lucasfilm, Ltd., for use
in THX-certified theaters.
The two component system includes a BV253C vented dual 15-in low
frequency unit and EAW’s HK2591 high frequency system – a large
format 90
°
x 40
°
horn loading a large diaphragm 2-in exit compres-
sion driver.
The HK2591's large format HF cinema horn ensures even distribution
of HF information over the entire audience area.
The BV253C’s optimally vented enclosure uses enclosure resonance
to increase LF response while limiting driver excursion. This method
produces less distortion and minimizes driver strain while extending
LF response to the lowest octaves.
The LF enclosure has 3 mounting points to allow optimum front/rear
positioning of the HF component. The adjustable mounting bracket
attaching the HF horn to the LF enclosure allows the HF horn to be
aimed independently of the LF section in both the horizontal and
vertical planes and can be locked once it is positioned.
The LF section includes a two-terminal barrier strip that accomodates
bare wire, tinned leads or spade lugs. The HF component uses heavy
duty spring-loaded push button type connectors. Input connectors
for the LF section are located on the side of the enclosure for
convenient access in cramped installation areas. HF input connec-
tors are directly on the compression driver.
All components feature a textured black finish to eliminate the
reflection of light through perforated cinema screens.
