Alcons extended its Studio and Residential lines with the new SRHV/9040 system. The CRMS-SRHV/9040 is based on the Alcons pro-ribbon driver with a patented transducer technology. The two-way passive-filtering crosses a vented mid-bass driver with the RBN401 pro-ribbon driver. With a lowest-usable LF response of 58 hertz, the CRMS-SRHV can be used as stand-alone monitor, or can be combined with a subwoofer; the MHF section has an 800-watt peak power input, enabling a 1:15 dynamic range with up to 90% less distortion to beyond 20 kilohertz.

The patented 90-degree horizontal offers a wide horizontal and a tight vertical coverage up to the highest frequencies — important for the seamless imaging in base channels of immersive systems.

Due to the compressionless principle of the pro-ribbon transducer, the system has a linear response at any SPL; in combination with Alcons Audio is tight manufacturing tolerance within 1 decibel, making each system a matched pair.

By utilizing identical MHF components within the CRMS range of products, a perfect voicing match between screen and surround system is realized, resulting in an exceptionally wide and uniform sound stage throughout the entire listening area.

The CRMS-SRHV is driven by an ALC controller-amplifier; synergetic technologies, such as VHIR-processing and SIS sensing turn the CRMS-SRHV into a precision instrument delivering maximum sound quality with increased headroom and utmost operation reliability.
