The CS350 is a double-duty high performance 3-way loudspeaker in McIntosh's high-end Academy Series. Regardless of configuration, all Academy Series speakers meet four criteria: first - they must sound musical and have clear, cleanly etched performance, second - they must have wide dynamic range with broad horizontal dispersion and a common voicing across the line, third - they must match the performance of McIntosh electronics by imparting no coloration of their own and, fourth - they must have both the styling and the build quality to outlast years of use.
The CS350 can function equally well as either the high performance centre channel for a system using other LS speakers or as the left, centre, right speaker in its own high performance system. At the heart of its amazing sound is the same five-tweeter Bezel Function Array found in the LS360. The crossover is designed to modify both the amplitude and the phase of each driver so that the array acts as a single point source. This creates a very broad horizontal dispersion and yet maintains detail and pinpoint location, something other home theatre speakers have problems with. Both home theatre performance and stereo listening benefit from this innovative design. A 4-inch LD/HP midrange driver and two 6-1/2" LD/HP woofers handle the lower frequencies. Like all Academy designs, the CS350 can handle very high power without sacrificing detail. A special Stabilizer bar allows the CS350 to be angled downward, for high-mounting placement such as above, rather than below, a video screen.
