Your Speaker

A 3-driver, 2-way surround speaker featuring dual 1-inch C-CAM® tweeters, and a 8 inch C-CAM® bass driver featuring RST®. The C380-FX can be configured to deliver direct or diffuse surround-sound effects via front-mounted switch or alternatively using the 12 volt trigger found on high-end AV amplifiers.

  • Dual tweeter configuration for use in di-pole or bi-pole mode.
  • RST® bass driver and C-CAM® tweeters, providing coherent tonal balance and sonic signature across the entire audio frequency spectrum.
  • High overall efficiency.
  • High frequency level adjustment (+/- 3dB). 
  • Timbre-match with GS, RS-CP, in-ceiling/wall and Gold Signature, Silver RS hi-fi speakers. 
  • Our innovative Tri-Grip fixing system is easier to install than conventional clamping schemes but provides three times the surface area and a better surface seal, maximising bass response and mid-range clarity.
  • Aluminium alloy grilles offer rust-free performance and longevity. They are non magnetic and lighter in weight.
  • All models are paint-able to blend with the living environment. A paint mask and additional scrim material are provided for trouble free painting. 
  • All models use fire retardant materials specified to UL-94 VO rating.
  • All models are splash and humidity proof for installation in shower rooms or pool areas.
  • All models feature dust protection covers that are designed to prevent the ingress of dirt or dust into the driver and crossover.

Technology

Gold Dome C-CAM®

Gold Dome C-CAM®

The gold dome tweeter is formed from a ceramic-coated aluminium/magnesium alloy, gold anodised to a specific thickness for ideal stiffness and damping characteristics. Its new profile and surround geometry have been developed using advanced modelling tools, to provide the optimum qualities for accurate sound reproduction. The new design moves the first order of breakup to beyond 35kHz, producing a linear response way beyond audibility, which matches the wide frequency bandwidth available from HD music and cinema sound formats.

The gold dome is thinner, lighter, more rigid and therefore more efficient than domes made from other materials which are prone to distortion in the audio band.

RST®

RST®

The RST cone profile comprises a radial pattern of surface dimples. Our simulations and listening tests have proved that the dimples significantly increase cone rigidity allowing C-CAM/RST cones to resist mechanical bending forces, which can twist the shape of lesser cones and produce distorted sound. The strengthening effect of the RST dimples means that we can use thinner, lighter more responsive C-CAM cones, providing speed and accuracy but offering greatly reduced distortion. The RST dimples also help to displace standing waves that can propagate on the cone's surface.
