PSB Alpha C10 - Centre Speaker (Each)

SEAT YOURSELF AT THE CENTRE OF ATTENTION

Designed to be mounted horizontally or vertically in a TV unit or under a projector screen, the C10 Centre in the new Alpha Series will be the most important speaker in your surround sound system. With its wide flat response and ideal dispersion characteristics, that will place the sound right in front of you.

HEAR EVERYTHING IN FULL DETAIL

The C10 uses a 0.75 black anodized aluminium dome tweeter to extend the high-frequency response further than any Alpha ever before while lowering distortion to deliver a layered soundstage full of detail and clarity. Unlike lesser designs at this price, all the new Alpha Series tweeters employ ferrofluid cooling to prevent dynamic compression and a neodymium magnet for high sensitivity. The tweeters front waveguide and its unique placement below the woofer work together to smooth the response at the crossover and perfect on and off-axis performance.

BRING THE CINEMA HOME

When paired with the Alpha Series newly designed tweeter, the C10s custom 5.25 woofer provides remarkable low-frequency response and the highest speaker efficiency in its class. The woofer is constructed from a special textured polypropylene compound that minimizes cone breakup and lowers distortion at full excursion. Its also supported with dual layer voice coils and a bass reflex design that uses the rear-firing port tube to control the bass response down to room-shaking levels.

MATCHED TO PERFECTION

The Alpha Series new crossover exceeds speaker standards with a special custom design that does more than direct low and high frequencies to the individual drivers-it delivers the tightest control and the flattest frequency response. An unusually complex acoustic Butterworth low-pass filter has also been incorporated into the crossover design to lower distortion and create a seamless soundscape in any type of two-channel setup or surround sound system.

SEAMLESS HOME THEATRE INTEGRATION

A unique combination of wall thickness and bracing controls resonances and provides a perfect platform for the P5s driver components, while its internal damping material is from PSBs flagship lines and has been positioned precisely for optimal effectiveness. Finished with a high-quality wood grain vinyl and magnetically attached grilles that are acoustically transparent, the P5 is perfectly designed to seamlessly disappear into any dcor and provide rich, detailed sound.
