Wide Compatibility: With its high sensitivity and impedance, the CP-CT380IDC is compatible with a wide range of amplifiers, making it easy to integrate into existing audio systems.

IDC (Inverted Dual Concentric) Driver Module

Three-Way Design: The CP-CT380IDC is equipped with an IDC driver module that combines three drivers into a single unit. This configuration includes a 1-inch C-CAM gold dome tweeter, a 4-inch C-CAM midrange driver, and an 8-inch C-CAM bass driver. The three-way design ensures that each frequency range is handled by a dedicated driver, allowing for precise and dynamic sound reproduction across the entire frequency spectrum.

Wide Dispersion: The IDC module is designed to provide wide dispersion, ensuring that the sound is evenly distributed throughout the listening area. This makes the CP-CT380IDC ideal for large rooms or open-plan spaces where uniform sound coverage is essential.

C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminum Magnesium) Technology

Durable and Lightweight: All the drivers in the CP-CT380IDC are made from C-CAM, a material known for its combination of rigidity and low mass. This ensures that the drivers can respond quickly and accurately to the audio signal, resulting in clear and detailed sound with minimal distortion.

Superior Performance: The use of C-CAM in the bass, midrange, and tweeter drivers allows the CP-CT380IDC to deliver a balanced and cohesive sound, with deep bass, clear midrange, and sparkling highs.

Pivoting IDC Module

Customisable Sound Direction: The IDC module can be pivoted, allowing you to direct the sound towards the listening area. This feature is particularly useful in challenging acoustic environments where precise sound placement is necessary to achieve optimal audio performance.

Enhanced Soundstage: By adjusting the angle of the IDC module, you can enhance the soundstage and create a more immersive listening experience, making the CP-CT380IDC ideal for home theater applications.

Fully Sealed Enclosure

Controlled Performance: Like other speakers in the Controlled Performance series, the CP-CT380IDC features a fully sealed enclosure. This design ensures that the speaker's performance is consistent regardless of the installation environment, as it prevents sound leakage into adjacent rooms and minimises the effects of dust and moisture.

Installation Versatility: The sealed enclosure makes the CP-CT380IDC suitable for installation in a wide variety of spaces, including bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas where environmental conditions might be a concern.

Tri-Grip Fixing System

Secure and Stable Installation: Monitor Audio's Tri-Grip fixing system provides a secure and stable installation. This system uses three screws to evenly distribute the clamping force, ensuring that the speaker is held firmly in place without damaging the ceiling material.

Easy to Install: The Tri-Grip system is designed for easy installation, making it accessible to both professional installers and DIY enthusiasts. The system also allows for quick and straightforward removal if needed.

Magnetic Grille

Low-Profile Design: The CP-CT380IDC comes with a low-profile, paintable magnetic grille. This grille is designed to blend seamlessly into the ceiling, providing a discreet and unobtrusive appearance that doesn't detract from the room's décor.

Tool-Free Access: The magnetic grille allows for easy, tool-free access to the speaker components, making it simple to adjust the IDC module or perform maintenance without the need for special tools.
