The CS-3 is the result of  a joint development

program by Carlo Sound and Eastern Acoustic Works  to

develop a loudspeaker system with high output and low

distortion performance associated with  horn-loaded systems,

while also incorporating the wide bandwidth and the ease o f

transport and set up of "one Box" direct radiating systems By

building three sophisticated true  exponential  horns  in  a single

enclosure,  and packaging it for touring concert applications,

all the benifits of  horn loading are realized with the ease o f

one box packaging. Additiortally, through the use of vent

loading below low frequency horn cut-off, response is

extended to the 40 Hz region allowing for extended

bandwidth capabilities.

Performance at the leading edge of

technology

Combining Carlo Sound's better than  10  years  o f

extensive touring sound  experience  with EAW's  famous

engineering and manufacturing capabilities,  this  system is

designed to fulfill the need of  touring sound  applications

without 

modification or structural reinforcement

Construction is  all cross-grain  laminated birch  with extensive

wood bracing, and urethane foam dampening in the LF and MF

horn flares virtually eliminates panel resonances even at levels

exceeding 140 db in the throat region. All horns  maintain a

true exponential expansion enabling a smooth  air loaded

impedance characteristic for exceptionally flat response

Careful design of the package itself enables us to realize a

truly efficient box in terms of ease of transport set up, and

breakdown. A variety of configurations are available. The

standard unit  comes  with  handles and steel speaker grills.

Options include fly points, wheels, and traveling pallets.
