Our thoughts

Stereo music, dipole movie surround and wide-coverage mono all come from one large in-ceiling cabinet, selected by switches. It suits owners whose rooms leave little space for a pair of floor or wall speakers.

The two 1.25 inch C-CAM tweeters run out of phase in Cinema Mono FX for dipole movie effects, or in phase in Mono Wide Dispersion for bipole coverage. In Single Speaker Stereo, two binding posts take separate amplifier channels, so one cabinet can serve where two speakers won't fit. The 9 inch RST II dual-coil bass driver covers bass and mid-range in the same two-way cabinet. Quik-Link and Tri-Grip II are designed for quicker, more secure fitting.

It suits listeners who want one ceiling speaker for music and movies, or rear surround and wide-coverage corridors. Impedance is 4 ohm in mono and 8 ohm in stereo. Our team can talk through amplifier matching and the CL-B pre-construction bracket by phone or in the showroom.

This large Monitor Audio C2L-T2X Tier 2 in-ceiling loudspeaker can be utilised as both a single stereo speaker for music or as a di-pole or bi-pole surround sound speaker for exhilarating movie sound. It has a cut-out dimension of 248 mm and revolutionary patented Quik-Link speaker cable connector and Tri-Grip II for quick, simple, reliable and strong installation and fitting.

Monitor Audio C2L-T2X features

  • Ideal for installations where pristine acoustic performance is required
  • Switchable design for three modes
  • Two-way design
  • 2 x 1.25" (32 mm) C-CAM tweeter with UD Waveguide II for lifelike sound
  • 1 x 9" (229 mm) RST II dual-coil bass driver for pristine mid-range and full bass
  • Patented Quik-Link speaker cable connector for quicker installation (UK patent application no. 2216966.8)
  • Tri-Grip II for easy and secure fitment

Ideal for both music and movies, the large in-ceiling C2L-T2X allows the user to switch between Music mode for wide dispersion and Movie mode for spatial effects. It is a two-way model featuring an RST II dual-coil bass driver and two C-CAM tweeters.

C2L-T2X has three modes:

  • Cinema Mono FX (Di-pole, tweeters out of phase)
  • Mono Wide Dispersion (Bi-Pole, tweeters in phase)
  • Single Speaker Stereo (two binding posts accepting connection to two separate amplifier channels)

C2L-T2X is ideal used as rear surround channels, within corridors or large areas where maximum coverage is required, and in compact areas where there isn’t space to fit two speakers. Optional square grille can be used with this model.
