Description

The CWM362 two-way in-wall loudspeaker features an elegant minimal-width border design and is engineered to deliver precision sound in any environment. Bring your music and movies to life with CWM362.

These speakers are packaged and sold as a pair and cannot be purchased individually (with the exception of some active speaker models).

Passive speakers must be powered by an amplifier. A passive speaker has positive and negative inputs which must be connected to the output of the amplifier with 2-core speaker cable (4-core is required for dual input single stereo speakers).

This icon indicates the size in inches of the speaker’s main drive unit(s). As a rule, larger drivers can produce lower frequencies for better bass response. They also typically have a higher maximum power handling.

Measured in ohms, impedance is the resistance or load that a speaker puts on an amplifier. When multiple speakers are connected to an amplifier channel in parallel (doubled up on the terminals) this actually has the effect of reducing the total resistance (1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 …). Most amplifiers are rated at 4-16 ohms, so care should be taken to stay within this range. If the total impedance in parallel is less than 4 ohms then the speakers should be wired in series.

Speakers with the Music icon are suitable for stereo music systems. Single mono speakers which are packaged individually and indicated by the ‘Single’ icon must be purchased in multiples of two when connecting to a stereo amplifier.

Speakers with the Cinema icon are either dedicated products designed for multi-channel surround sound systems, or ones which we highly recommend for this purpose. It should be noted that the majority of speakers are suitable for use as surround and/or Atmos channels, so this icon does not apply to that application, and instead focuses on front speakers and subwoofers.
