Description
CCM632
In-ceiling speakers, designed to squeeze into small spaces or be
used in multiples for diffuse, background sound, are really difficult to
get right. If the driver’s too small, there won’t be enough bass without
adding a bulky subwoofer, but the common alternative is a 2-way
where the tweeter sits in front of a small bass/midrange driver.
The problem with these is the driver fires around the tweeter’s body,
inevitably leading to colouration. The new Bowers & Wilkins CCM632
is a single 75mm (3inch) full-range driver with a beautifully wellbalanced sound, that sidesteps traditional small speaker issues
yet still takes up less than 150mm (6”) diameter space installed.
The CCM632 also features Bowers & Wilkins new and innovative
ZipDogs™ fixing method. These make short work of installation and
cope with almost any thickness of mounting panel.
Each speaker comes with an integral enclosure to minimise acoustic
bleed into adjoining spaces. Speakers are supplied in pairs, with
each pack including round and square magnetically fixed, and fully customisable, grille/bezel assemblies.
.
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).
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.
