C-CAM Drivers

The C1M incorporates Monitor Audio's proprietary C-CAM technology, utilised in both the mid-bass driver and the tweeter, known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, rigidity, and low distortion characteristics.

7" C-CAM Mid-Bass Driver: This driver delivers powerful bass and clear midrange frequencies. The use of C-CAM material helps in reducing distortion, resulting in a more accurate and detailed sound reproduction.

This driver is especially capable of handling complex musical passages and cinematic sound effects, making it an ideal choice for home theaters.

1" C-CAM Tweeter with UD Waveguide: The tweeter is equipped with a Uniform Dispersion (UD) Waveguide, which enhances the dispersion characteristics, providing a more uniform sound field.

This design helps in creating a more immersive audio experience, whether the speaker is used in a multi-room setup or a dedicated listening space.
