Description
Cinema M8 – SPL and dynamics at its best
The Cinema M8 is an absolutely unique home cinema speaker in many ways. It features 8 drivers in a compact cabinet to offer you a high flexibility concerning its placement and at the same time provide a perfect home cinema experience. To achieve these goals, the M8 comes with six tweeters in a hex tweeter array and two 8“ bass drivers in D‘Appolito formation. This unique combination features a perfect radiation pattern which provides perfect sound not only for a single listener like many other systems do but also for several people sitting besides each other. Another advantage of the construction is the high efficiency and the extraordinary power handling which enables the M8 to fill rooms with up to 120m² with powerful and clean neutral sound.
Drivers
The treble and the most critical part of the midrange is reproduced by a specially developed hex tweeter array. This unique construction allows special design options like a very low crossover frequency to the woofers and thus provides a minimum phaseshift off axis, minimal distortion, high max. SPL capacity, optimized radiation response and high efficiency. The two 8″ mid-bass drivers are designed in the D’Apppolito arrangement and in combination with the tweeter array achieve the best dispersion pattern for your home theater/hifi system. In combination the 8 drivers can provide very high sound pressure, even in large rooms.
Sound Tuning
In order to be able to adapt the M8 perfectly to your requirements and the prevailing room acoustics, the treble can be configured. It can be adjusted to neutral (0dB), slightly increased (+ 2dB) or slightly lowered (-2dB) with the aid of the switch on the back.
Cabinet
As cabinet material of the closed construction, the M8 uses HDF. Compared to MDF, this material is even more stiff, more stable and thus ensures the high weight of the loudspeaker. Internal resonances are effectively reduced thanks to the trapezoidal shape. The baffle of the M8 is angled by 7.5° in the direction of the center of the room so that the loudspeakers can be easily mounted on the wall and are optimally aligned to the listening position. Stem nuts on the backside allow for a safe and stable mounting with our optional flushmount kit.
Surface
The high-quality multi-layer coating with a special 8-layer anti-reflection lacquer minimizes disturbing stray light when using a projector and thus enables you to place the speakers close to a TV or screen. It also gives the Cinema M8 a refined and professional character. The elaborate polishing provides a unique homogeneous surface finish.
Terminal
The connections of the Cinema M8 are designed for bi-wiring and bi-amping. The connectors are gold plated to minimize transfer resistances. The jumpers for the bi-wiring terminal include copper spades. The massive screw terminals allow a secure connection and an optimal connection for your cables.
Front Cover
The front cover of the Cinema M8 has magnetic holders. The black acoustic cloth which is used is opaque and completely sound-transparent. It also protects the drivers effectively against possible damage. The magnetic logo can be attached to the cover or loudspeaker housing at several points.
