Cambridge Audio Minx C46 In Ceiling Speaker

High-Tech, Nearly Invisible Ceiling Speakers

Small size, big sound, and easy installation are the hallmarks of Cambridge Audio's Minx C46 in-ceiling speaker. Thanks to its high-tech BMR Balanced Mode Radiator driver, the Minx delivers much more expansive sound than conventional compact drivers. And the small size makes the C46 more 'invisible' than standard architectural speakers.

"I can tell you that they are worth every penny," raves James Arledge in his good2know.co review for May 4, 2014. "I would happily buy four or five of these for a home theater room to create the perfect at home movie watching experience."

Wide Dispersion Design for Expansive Sound

This wide dispersion in-ceiling speaker offers superb integration in any home thanks to its compact size, and its huge performance make it a stellar performer in both hi-fi and home theater applications. It has a diameter of 3.1" and the low profile design allows it to protrude a mere 0.11" when mounted into your ceiling. The C46s are quick and easy to install, and the grilles can be painted to blend in harmoniously with your decor.

Rewriting the Speaker Rulebook

Created at Cambridge Audio's Research and Development Centre in the heart of London by a team fuelled with a passion for sound, the Minx C46 speakers rewrite the rulebook of what's possible from miniature speakers.

Each C46 uses a 2.25"-diameter BMR driver. With BMR (Balanced Mode Radiator) technology, the C46 performs superbly and covers an exceptionally large sound footprint, meaning that compared to conventional speakers you need to install less of them to get the same even sound level over a wide area. Frequency response is an impressive 120 Hz - 20 kHz. Recommended amplifier power is 15-200 watts.

Application Versatility

Let your imagination rule as you find applications for the C46. Use the C46 as a virtually invisible surround speaker solution with a Minx 5.1 system, or install them around your home to bring music discreetly to every room. The C46 is also ideal in arrays in a commercial environment to provide an even spread of sound, the C46 is incredibly versatile.

Ideal for a Wide Variety of Environments

The Minx C46 is fit for a wide variety of environments and is fully tested to IP65 water-dust resistance specifications. This testing ensures that no dust or water can pass. And it opens up lots of possibilities for installation in environments where lesser in-ceiling speakers just can't go.
