The CT8.2 LCR is the latest addition to the very successful CT800 Series. It marries high efficiency and SPL capability to outstanding fidelity for cinema and music playback. Its unique modular baffle design allows for it to be used as an LCR speaker in either vertical or horizontal positions. The CT8.2 LCR incorporates two 8” Paper/Aramid Fibre woofer, a 6” blue Aramid Fibre FST midrange, and 1.25” aluminium Nautilus tweeter in a passive crossover design.

We believe CT800 speakers will give you the best cinema sound you’ll ever hear at home. That’s thanks to technological innovations that have taken more than 40 years to develop and perfect. Take apart CT800 speakers and you’ll find technologies derived from our most advanced freestanding
speakers: speakers like the ground-breaking Nautilus™, or our reference-standard 800 Series.
It’s this highly refined Bowers & Wilkins technology that equips CT800 speakers for subtlety as well as power: for capturing the emotional nuance in a voice as well as the impact of a car crash or an explosion. In short, they may be the most sophisticated pieces of kit you’ll ever keep in a cupboard. And you won’t ever want to take them out.
Imagine blasting into the Death Star with Luke Skywalker. Riding shotgun through the streets of San Francisco with Steve McQueen. Feeling Lauren Bacall’s breath on your cheek. The most thrilling cinema experiences are the ones when you feel like you’re actually there, right in the heart of the action. That’s exactly what happens with a CT800 system.
Sound is affected by environment
This is particularly true of a home theatre system, where multiple speakers are installed inside false walls and cabinets in different positions throughout a room. With so many variables affecting the detail of sound at bass frequencies, how can you be sure you’re always getting the most from your system? It’s simple, thanks to the CT8 XO MK2 active bass management controller.
The CTO XO MK2 gives engineers and installers complete control over every aspect of the system’s bass output. You’re left with a system that sounds smooth and perfectly formed, even if your theatre environment isn’t.
