It features a decoupled Diamond dome tweeter and a single 7inch bass/midrange Continuum driver with anti-resonance plug. All the drive units are located in a rotatable mini-baffle which allows the user to toe in' the drive units of the loudspeaker for the best performance.

For optimum discretion when installed, the Continuum cone is given a dark finish.

  • 7" Continuum™ Cone Driver: Produces accurate midrange and bass with reduced distortion and a natural tonal balance.
  • Matrix™-Inspired Rigid Chassis: Minimizes unwanted cabinet vibrations for cleaner, more focused sound.
  • Built-in Acoustic Back Box: Enhances bass performance and simplifies installation by controlling rear wave reflections.

Can the tweeter be adjusted to improve sound direction?

Yes, the Diamond Dome tweeter is mounted in a rotatable housing. This allows you to aim the high frequencies toward your primary listening position, ensuring better clarity, focus, and off-axis response—even when the speaker is installed in fixed ceiling positions.

Does this speaker require a separate enclosure for proper performance?

No, the CCM8.5D includes an integrated back box, which is acoustically optimized to improve low-frequency response and manage internal reflections. This not only enhances overall performance but also streamlines installation without the need for additional in-wall modifications.

Can the speaker grille be customized to match ceiling finishes?

Absolutely. The included magnetic grille is designed to be paintable, allowing you to match it with any ceiling color for a discreet and seamless appearance. It also snaps on easily for quick access or aesthetic adjustments.
