The Monitor Audio C2L-CP is a large Tier 2 in-ceiling loudspeaker engineered for installations that demand high-fidelity sound with consistent performance. Featuring a two-way design with a 9" RST II mid-bass driver and a 1.25" C-CAM tweeter with UD Waveguide II, the C2L-CP delivers deep bass, lifelike treble, and wide sound dispersion. As a Controlled Performance (CP) model, it is equipped with a sealed enclosure, ensuring consistent acoustic results regardless of wall or ceiling construction.
The C2L-CP integrates a rigid, mineral-filled enclosure that optimises driver performance by providing the optimal air load. This design reduces rear sound radiation by up to 30 dB, significantly enhancing sound isolation between rooms and floors. The RST II cone technology ensures accurate and powerful bass, while the C-CAM tweeter delivers detailed treble across a wide listening area. Installation is streamlined with the Quik-Link speaker connector and Tri-Grip II fixing system. Optional square grilles provide added flexibility for visual integration.
