The Blaze Audio CBL528 Constant Directivity Full Range Speaker features a compact form factor that makes an excellent choice for permanent installations such as fitness and sports venues, conference centres and Houses of Worship.
With its wide 180 degree horizontal and 45 degree vertical dispersion, this speaker supports a frequency range from 54Hz to 18kHz, ensuring clear, natural sounding music and highly articulate speech reproduction. Equally important, the CBL528's symmetrical dispersion pattern ensures listeners hear consistent sound regardless of whether they are positioned in front of, to the left or to the right of the speakpeaker.
Its Bi-amped design for system integration, in addition with Blaze amplifiers, also makes it an excellent choice for permanent installations such as performing arts venues, commercial theatres and Houses of Worship.
The CBL528 is designed to be driven by two output channels of a Blaze PowerZone Connect 3004 power amplifier configured to provide appropriately filtered outputs for the two driver arrays. The speaker connection is a Neutrik NL4 SpeakOn input socket on its rear panel wired for 4 core speaker cable.
This constant directivity full range speaker can be installed free standing on appropriate flat surfaces, pole mounted via underside hole fixtures, top mounted using specific mounting hardware or flown from defined attachment points.
If a CBL528 loudspeaker is to be underside pole mounted, simply insert a standard 35mm diameter speaker stand pole into the one of the underside hole fixtures. The front hole provides perpendicular alignment while the rear hole provides a 7.5° down tilt option. It is important to ensure that the speaker stand and pole employed is able to support the 17.46kg weight of the speaker with an appropriate safety margin.
If to be top mounted, this can be achieved through the use of a standard projector mount bracket attached to the speaker's top panel. The Chief model CMA395 projector mount is recommended, please see CHI-CMA and CHI-CMS in the related items section.
This sepaker can also be flown by attaching flying hardware to two or more of the rigging attachment points. There are two M10 rigging attachment points on the top of the CBL528-BA and one on each side.
