Vivid audio products have been designed with home theatre applications
in mind from the start and the C1 is our answer to the crucial centre
channel application.
C1 is a three-way system employing a single D50 mid range driver (patents
pending), between 900Hz and 4 kHz with the range beyond being handled
by a D26 tweeter (patents pending). Below 900Hz the C1 uses two C125
mid-bass drivers (patents pending), mounted on either side of the central
mid and high domes. The two drivers are identically driven in order
to preserve a symmetrical horizontal polar pattern at all frequencies.
Fourth order filters ensure phase coherence through both crossover
points resulting in a seamless response.
Optionally, the C1 may be mounted on its matched stand. Made from
the same carbon fibre loaded polyester compound as the enclosure, it
provides an exceptionally stable footing while holding the loudspeaker
at a gentle angle to suit most floor mounted situations. To further
guarantee the stability of the complete system, a total of five custom
spikes are mounted around the periphery of the base.
Precision machined WBT® binding posts are recessed into the rear
of the cabinet and linked internally to the crossover boards using
Van den Hul® cable throughout.
