The three-way stage channel speaker design dramatically advances cinema audio quality by improving the naturalness and intelligibility of dialog, eliminating distortion from excessive driver excursion and extending pattern control into the lower octaves.
With EAW New Generation Cinema Speakers, there is less distortion produced and the driver strain is minimized while extending sub bass response to the lower limits of human hearing. Special effects will have greater clarity, greater power and greater impact.
