10" Passive Coaxial Differential Dispersion On-wall Loudspeaker

CDD10 Loudspeaker
Where to Buy or Rent

The CDD10 is a very compact two-way passive loudspeaker system which utilises a 10” (250mm) LF/1” (25mm) exit HF Coaxial Differential Dispersion driver. It is uniquely placed to meet the foreground requirements of music bars and clubs, as well as the varied architectural applications that require upfront sound levels from a very compact enclosure. Use with a SX118 or CX218 subwoofer will enable the CDD10 to operate as small dancefloor system that is remarkably powerful for its size.

  • Live Music Clubs and Bars
  • Nightclubs
  • Bars and Restaurants
  • Museums and AV Spaces
  • Convention Centres
  • Hotels
  • Retail Outlets
  • Leisure Centres
  • Houses of Worship

The Coaxial Differential Dispersion technology employed in the CDD10 delivers more consistent audience coverage than systems with fixed X° x Y° coverage patterns — projecting relatively more output to the rear of the audience, while having wide horizontal coverage close-up. Its innovative CDD driver achieves ‘point source’ summation of the LF and HF sections — eliminating off-axis variations in frequency response associated with non-coaxial designs. Improving on conventional coaxial designs, which can suffer from high-frequency beaming, the driver features a static waveguide that merges seamlessly with the unique cone shape — maintaining the dispersion pattern out to very high frequencies.

The visually-distinctive composite enclosure can be used in either horizontal (landscape) or vertical (portrait) orientation, with rotation of the driver easily accomplished by removing the screw-free, protective grille. The curved shape of the CDD10 allows it to be surface-mounted close to a wall via an optional wall bracket or suspended from a ceiling by eyebolts or a horizontal yoke option.

Finished in black (RAL9005) or white (RAL9016) as standard, the CDD10 can be supplied in any RAL colour to order.

A full-range, passive two-way system, the CDD10 should be used with a compatible controller with appropriate limiter settings to provide system protection.

When used with the DX4.0 controller or an iKON amplifier, there are now enhanced DSP and FIR based pre-sets to deliver the absolute maximum performance and fidelity while limiter settings protect the integrity of the system.

Architectural Specs
Martin Audio CDD10

The loudspeaker shall be a passive, two-way system ultilising Coaxial Differential Dispersion technology. Its transducers shall consist of a reflex-loaded 10” low frequency driver and a coaxially-mounted 1” exit high frequency compression driver loaded by a static waveguide that merges with moving waveguides added to the cone of the low frequency driver to define the HF horn geometry.

The coaxial driver shall be user-rotatable to enable vertical or horizontal operation as required by the application. Horizontal dispersion shall vary from 110° to 75° and vertical dispersion shall be 60°. The on-axis frequency response shall be 65Hz-20kHz +/- 3dB and the loudspeaker shall produce a maximum SPL of 126dB peak calculated at 1 metre. Power handling shall be 250W AES, 1000W peak. Rated impedance shall be 8 ohms.

The input connector shall be a low-profile 20A push-lock type. Low and high frequency sections shall be integrated by an internal 2kHz passive network. For optimal performance the loudspeaker shall be operated in conjunction with a dedicated electronic controller.

The enclosure shall be made from rigid composite material and fitted with threaded inserts for wall and ceiling mounting. The drivers shall be protected by a perforated steel grille with scrim cloth backing.

Dimensions (W x H x D) shall be 323mm x 513mm x 310mm (12.7in x 20.2in x 12.2in). Weight shall be 15.3kg (33.7lbs).

The loudspeaker shall be the Martin Audio CDD10.
