Architectural Specifications

The CA-8T all-purpose two-way compact loudspeaker system

shall include a 8" (20.32cm) K-1111-A weather-resistant low

frequency driver and a 1" (2.54cm) K-118-A titanium diaphragm

high frequency compression driver mounted on a molded

Tractrix Horn. Signal shall be provided to the transducers via a

passive internal frequency dividing network, with a 2kHz

crossover frequency. The enclosure tuning shall be dual port

bass reflex.

Frequency response shall be 64Hz to 19kHz, ±4dB, with the

-10dB down point at 45Hz, measured at 1 meter, half space

anechoic. The dispersion angle shall be 90º x 60º nominal (refer

to graph). Sensitivity shall be 96dB SPL, measured at 1 meter,

half space anechoic, with a 2.83V input. Power handling shall

be 100 watts (21V), to AES standards, continuous pink noise,

50Hz to 10kHz, 6dB peaks. Calculated maximum continuous

output at 1 meter shall be 113dB SPL. Nominal impedance shall

be 8 ohms, with a 4.2 ohm minimum at 175Hz. Full-range

connections shall be made via 5-way binding posts.

A removable powder-coated aluminum grille shall be

provided for protection of the transducers from tampering or

damage. The enclosure shall be of UV- and weather-resistant

ABS plastic, available in black or white, with dimensions of

11.125" (28.26cm) high by 16.375" (41.59cm) wide by 11.75"

(29.85cm) deep. Net weight shall be 17 lbs. (7.72kg). Mounting

shall be via protruding stainless steel threaded studs on the side

enclosure panels, mating to large external knobs for positive

attachment to the C-shaped mounting bracket (included).

The system shall be a Klipsch CA-8T loudspeaker.

The Klipsch CA-8T compact full range system is perfect for higher power professional applications where flexible mounting and extended range are required. Equally at home indoors or out, in foreground or background, higher SPL applications, the CA-8T’s appearance and Klipsch fidelity fit into residential, business and recreational environments.

The UV- and weather-resistant ABS enclosure includes an internal multi-tap transformer with switchable direct 8 ohm bypass, simplifying hookup to any type of sound system. The C-bracket assembly attaches to the enclosure’s integral stainless steel threaded studs with oversized knobs, ensuring a positive position-lock and rapid "no-pain" installation. External attachment to the built-in security retainer provides an extra measure of safety, protecting against unexpected damage or removal.

The CA-8T includes a high-power 8" extended range low-frequency driver and a 1" titanium diaphragm compression driver on a molded Tractrix Horn. The 90º x 60ºhorn and driver assembly allows repositioning by 90º for selectable pattern control.

The compact dual port bass reflex loudspeaker system can handle 100 watts continuous power for an AES sensitivity of 96dB and a maximum output of 113dB SPL.

Paintable and available in black or white finishes, the ABS enclosure features corrosion- and rust-resistant stainless steel hardware and a removable aluminum powder-coated grille, ensuring maintenance-free service in any environment or application.

Whether indoors or out, the Klipsch CA-8T is the good looking, great sounding full-range solution for installed high-fidelity sound.
