Alcons Expands CRMS Family Of Loudspeakers

The Alcons Audio CRMSC-SRHOR surround is a 2-way passive-filtered full range loudspeaker, designed to meet all requirements of immersive cinema surround sound formats.

Featuring the multiple-patented Alcons pro-ribbon driver technology, the CRMSC-SRHOR monitor combines clarity and intelligibility with a high dynamic range.

The CRMSC-SRHOR system consists of one RBN202 pro-ribbon driver for HF and a vented 6.5-inch mid-bass for LF reproduction. The HF section has an 400 Watt peak power input, enabling a 1:16 dynamic range with up to 90% less distortion from 1 kHz to beyond 20 kHz.

The patented 90-degrees horizontal dispersion of the RBN202 offers a stable coverage to a larger number of seats in the auditorium; Due to the “compression-less” principle of the pro-ribbon transducer, the system has a linear response at any SPL.

The CRMSC-SRHOR is designed as matching surround system for the CRMSC Cinema Reference Monitoring system, or in any small to medium sized immersive surround system. By utilizing identical MHF components, in a horizontal arrangement, voicing matching between screen- and surround system is realized, resulting in a wide and uniform sound stage throughout the entire listening area. The CRMSC-SRHOR can also be used as main screen system in smaller applications, with low-frequency support.

The 15-degree slanted enclosure baffle together with the optional ACO color option, provides for low profile wall or ceiling mounting; Also ideal for height channels in low ceiling rooms. These systems are, as any other Alcons sound system, available in any color, through Alcons’ ACO; With Architect Colour Option, the entire color spectrum is covered through 180+ colors from the European RAL color scheme, allowing Alcons systems to blend into the background against any type of decor.

For full system performance, the CRMSC-SRHOR needs to be driven by an ALC Sentinel amplified loudspeaker controller, delivering sound quality with increased headroom and operation reliability.

The Signal Integrity Sensing pre-wiring ensures complete cable/connector compensation between the CRMSC-SRHOR and ALC Sentinel, increasing response accuracy, regardless of cable length and system impedance, with tight and accurate mid and bass response as result.

Typical applications include surround sound system for small commercial cinemas, screening rooms, mix and post-production facilities and dubbing stages. As a result of Alcons’ tight manufacturing standards, all system cabinets are within “matched pair” tolerance.
