Designed for in-ceiling background to
foreground SPL applications, the CM800i
delivers a broad dispersion pattern (1 kHz
– 10 kHz, EASE
™
documented), true lowend response (60 Hz, -10 dB) and high
sensitivity (93.5 dB 1W/1M). The CM800i
is ideal for nightclubs, bars, fitness centers,
hotel, airports, convention centers, casinos, corporate venues, churches and other
in-ceiling applications requiring background to foreground SPL. For applications where additional bass is required,
SoundTube’s CM801i 8” subwoofer provides low-end response down to 43 Hz.

Dispersion Technol og y
More than 3 years in development,
SoundTube’s proprietary BroadBeam11
technology incorporates a high-frequency
waveguide mated to a 1” convex aluminum tweeter. The BroadBeam11
frequency waveguide delivers a consistent
dispersion pattern across the upper registers of the frequency spectrum (up to
10 kHz, EASE™ documented). The result
is an audio system with fewer speakers,
reduced power needs, shorter installation
time and cost savings on shipping & labor.
