[edit] Description
[edit] Product Summary
- Manufacturer: B&W
- Designed for shelf or stand, the compact dimensions of the CDM 1 give no clue to the
capacity of the studio-quality sound which it is capable of producing. This was acknowledged by the fact that not long after the launch the Eisa Association awarded the CDM 1 the European Loudspeaker of the Year.
- Braced cabinet construction dramatically reduces cabinet resonance by adding the twin
virtues of strength and rigidity to the cabinet walls. Gold-plated terminals permit bi-wiring or bi-amplification.
[edit] Technical highlights
- B&W's Tweeter on top technology ensures that the sound remains focused
and time-sensitive and that the stereo image is presented with unparalleled three dimensional accuracy.
- Kevlar: B&W developed and patented the method of using Kevlar for
loudspeaker cones to reduce unwanted standing waves. DuPont originally created Kevlar for use in bulletproof vests.
