The Monitor Audio C2M-CP is a mid-sized Tier 2 in-ceiling loudspeaker designed for installations where consistent, high-performance audio is required. Featuring a two-way design with a 7" RST II mid-bass driver and a 1" C-CAM tweeter, the C2M-CP delivers engaging, lifelike sound with excellent clarity and wide dispersion. As a Controlled Performance (CP) model, it is fitted with a fully sealed back box to ensure reliable and consistent performance across different installation environments.
Engineered with a rigid, mineral-filled sealed back box, the C2M-CP provides the drivers with optimal air loading, improving midrange and bass response. This design also reduces rear sound radiation by up to 30 dB, improving acoustic isolation between spaces. The speaker integrates Monitor Audio's RST II cone technology for reduced distortion and improved rigidity, alongside a C-CAM tweeter with UD Waveguide II for lifelike treble and wide coverage. Installation is quick and secure with the Quik-Link cable connector and Tri-Grip II fixing system, ensuring reliability in both residential and commercial projects.
