Celestion CF0820BMB Bass/Midbass and CF0820M Midrange Now Available Individually for Retail

Most of the volume production from the leading suppliers of professional loudspeakers for sound reinforcement applications is offered for integration by speaker brands in finished products. Eventually, market adoption requires that standard references are also offered for retail. Celestion announced that the CF0820BMB and CF0820M, two of its 8-inch diameter ferrite magnet, cast aluminum chassis professional audio LF loudspeakers are now available packaged individually for dealers and distributors to sell to retail. Developed at Celestion’s headquarters in Ipswich, England, the CF0820BMB and CF0820M loudspeakers are treated paper cone woofers designed using specialist FEA (Finite Element Analysis) modeling techniques, enabling the engineering team to rapidly achieve genuine increases in performance, including greater efficiency, and exceptionally low distortion, the ideal ingredients that make best-selling speaker drivers.
 
The Celestion CF0820BMB is purpose built for bass and mid-bass applications. Perfectly suited to two-way systems, it packs an impressive amount of low end for such a compact driver. It features a 2" multi-layer voice coil providing 250Wrms (AES standard) power handling and 93dB sensitivity with an output frequency range of 50Hz to 6kHz. The half roll elastomer surround enables greater stability at extremes of excursion, along with improved modal distribution for reduced distortion. Balanced Airflow Venting (BAV) increases airflow around the coil and inner magnet assembly to provide enhanced cooling, preventing sensitivity loss through thermal compression.
 
The Celestion CF0820M is a dedicated midrange driver designed for straightforward three-way systems, horn-loaded or line array applications. The driver delivers 250Wrms (AES standard) power handling and 98dB sensitivity, with an output frequency range of 150Hz to 6kHz. CF0820M features a copper sleeved pole to reduce inductive rise for improved HF performance. The low profile aluminum chassis enables close packing in applications where multiple drivers are required, while an inverted dust cap enables the close positioning of a phase plug where horn-loading is required.
 
These two high performance cast aluminum loudspeakers emphasize Celestion’s continuing commitment to delivering a wide range of high-quality solutions for sound reinforcement and professional audio applications.
