An addition to our top-of-the-range Custom Theatre 800 Series, which brings the same legendary technology used in B&W’s 800 Series of stand-alone speakers to your home theatre set-up. The CT8.4 LCRS is designed as an alternative to the CT8 DS side/rear channel speaker when space is at a premium: it’s a smaller, more compact vertical surround sound speaker that generates exactly the same authentically three-dimensional listening experience. The CT8.4 LCRS also packs enough power to act as a stand-alone loudspeaker positioned front, side and rear within a complete custom theatre system.
We believe CT800 speakers will give you the best cinema sound you’ll ever hear at home. That’s thanks to technological innovations that have taken more than 40 years to develop and perfect. Take apart CT800 speakers and you’ll find technologies derived from our most advanced freestanding
speakers: speakers like the ground-breaking Nautilus™, or our reference-standard 800 Series.
It’s this highly refined Bowers & Wilkins technology that equips CT800 speakers for subtlety as well as power: for capturing the emotional nuance in a voice as well as the impact of a car crash or an explosion. In short, they may be the most sophisticated pieces of kit you’ll ever keep in a cupboard. And you won’t ever want to take them out.
Sound is affected by environment
This is particularly true of a home theatre system, where multiple speakers are installed inside false walls and cabinets in different positions throughout a room. With so many variables affecting the detail of sound at bass frequencies, how can you be sure you’re always getting the most from your system? It’s simple, thanks to the CT8 XO MK2 active bass management controller.
The CTO XO MK2 gives engineers and installers complete control over every aspect of the system’s bass output. You’re left with a system that sounds smooth and perfectly formed, even if your theatre environment isn’t.
