Clair Brothers 5CX loudspeaker has been
designed as a hi-fidelity, small-format point
source speaker. The frequency response is
very wide and high output for a device of its
size, 85Hz–20,000Hz (-10dB), allowing for
use for speech and music reproduction. The
5CX features the latest in neodymium coaxial
transducer technology and a 70° conic constant
directivity horn that offers precise coverage and
a 5” woofer with a suspension that affords high
output and wide bandwidth in a small enclosure.
The 5CX features a SpeakON In/thru connectors
as well as a single two position terminal strip.
An internal passive crossover network provides
third-order filtering allowing for exceptionally
clear output with remarkable coherence through
the crossover region. The 5CX is well-suited for
front fill applications with full PA systems just as
it is equally well equipped to stand alone as a
main speaker in a smaller environment.

Mechanical & Accessories:
Like its series companions, the 5CB and 8CX,
the 5CX offers a seemingly unlimited number
of ways to rig and/or mount utilizing a family of
mounting accessories. The 5CX has (4) integral
mounting points (M10 x 1.5 thread). The
accessories include yoke mounting brackets for
both vertical and horizontal mounting positions
as well as tilt adaptors to enable pan and tilt
in either configuration. The brackets also have
a companion pole mount socket to allow
unrestrained pan and tilt when used as a pole
mount speaker. Additional accessories include:
threaded stud plates, pipe clamp mounts, chain
rigging points, VESA tilt mount and array mode
top-bar plates.
The 5CX is well-suited for down-firing
applications, such as large convention centers
or high ceiling commercial spaces. In particular,
the pair of mounting points available on each
panel of the cabinet are spaced at the same
spacing as slots on standard Unistrut hardware,
allowing for exceptional compatibility in
commercial integration projects. Please contact
Clair Brothers for more information regarding
coverage area planning and simulation.
