Clair Brothers 5CB loudspeaker has been
designed as a hi-fidelity, small-format point
source speaker. The frequency response
is exceptionally wide bandwidth and high
output for a device of its size, 85Hz–20,000Hz
(-10dB), allowing for use for speech and music
reproduction. The 5CB features 5” coaxial
transducer with a ¾” dome tweeter with 120°
conic coverage.
The 5CB features a SpeakON In/thru connectors
as well as a single two position terminal
strip. An internal passive crossover network
provides frequency domain filtering allowing
for exceptionally clear output with remarkable
coherence through the crossover region. The
5CB is well-suited for distributed systems,
area fill applications with full PA systems just
as it is equally well equipped to stand alone
as a main speaker in a smaller environment.
The 5CB’s smooth response and low distortion
figures also make it an excellent reference
monitor, particularly when combined with its
complement subwoofer, the 12Sx.

Mechanical & Accessories:
Like its series companions, the 5CX and 8CX,
the 5CB offers a seemingly unlimited number
of ways to rig and/or mount utilizing a family of
mounting accessories. The 5CB 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 5CB 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.
