Canton Introduces New CD Speaker Trio

10-Jul-03

Canton has expanded their CD line of aluminum body loudspeakers with the introduction of the CD 100 tower, the CD 50, and the CD 10 mini-satellite. The new models feature a silver aluminum styling and advanced driver and crossover designs. The Canton CD 10 employs engineering and design advances in driver, circuitry, and cabinet design to deliver a frequency response of 80 Hz to 25 kHz from a speaker that measures just over 5 inches tall, and under 4 inches deep and wide. The CD 10 features a new, proprietary 3-inch aluminum woofer, high-integrity aluminum housing, a 3.9 kHz crossover network, and a sophisticated passive filter circuit which blocks unwanted low-frequency signals that can generate harmonic distortions. The CD 10 has a suggested retail price of $125 per speaker. The CD 50 and CD 100 speakers each incorporate the same drivers as the CD 10, but with a total of four of the 3-inch midrange/bass drivers flanking a single tweeter, one pair on either side. Canton engineers have designed a ""two-and-one-half-way"" crossover circuit to prevent mid-bass cancellations. With this circuitry, one pair of drivers handles both bass and midrange frequencies, while the other pair is responsible only for bass reproduction. Like all the CD speakers, the CD 50 is magnetically shielded, and can be mounted horizontally for use as a center channel, or vertically as a stereo or surround speaker. The CD 100 is intended for use as a vertical ""tower,"" and stands nearly 40 inches tall atop a weighted aluminum base plate for stability. The CD 50 and CD 100 have suggested retail prices of $300 and $500 each, respectively. The Canton CD series speakers are finished in aluminum with perforated silver metal grills, and can be matched with any of Canton's AS line of active subwoofers for a complete home theatre or satellite-subwoofer system.
