Blaze Audio CBL528-BA-W – Bi-Amped Constant Beamwidth Loudspeaker, White

Product Overview

The Blaze Audio CBL528-BA-W is a bi-amped 2-way constant beamwidth loudspeaker engineered for commercial sound reinforcement in white-finish environments. Delivering controlled horizontal coverage and dual-amp flexibility, it is a natural fit for restaurants, corporate lobbies, retail spaces, and houses of worship where a clean white aesthetic is required. As a commercial AV loudspeaker for install, the CBL528-BA-W maintains the same precision dispersion characteristics as the black-finish CBL528-BA-B while blending discreetly into light-colored architectural interiors. It is part of the Blaze by Sonance CBL Series, available from Creation Networks.

Product Description

The CBL528-BA-W brings bi-amped 2-way performance and constant beamwidth pattern control to installations where a white loudspeaker finish is specified. Its consistent horizontal coverage pattern ensures even sound distribution without off-axis spill, making coverage modeling straightforward for AV integrators. The dual-amp input configuration enables independent drive of the HF and LF sections, giving system designers full control over gain structure and tonal balance. The CBL528-BA-W is equally at home in hospitality, retail, corporate, and worship environments — anywhere precise audio coverage and a refined appearance must coexist. Surface mount and U-bracket options accommodate a wide range of installation geometries and sight-line constraints. Like all CBL Series models, it is built for continuous commercial operation and long-term reliability in demanding environments. The white finish makes it particularly well-suited for ceiling-mounted or wall-mounted positions in bright interiors, conference rooms, and modern commercial spaces. AV system designers will find the predictable dispersion data essential for accurate acoustic modeling. This model is also available in black — see the CBL528-BA-B at Creation Networks for black-finish installations.

Key Features

• Bi-Amped 2-Way Design — Independent amplifier inputs for HF and LF drivers allow optimized gain structure and greater headroom in each band.
• Constant Beamwidth Pattern Control — Consistent horizontal coverage across the operating bandwidth reduces off-axis spill and simplifies venue coverage planning.
• Dual-Amp Inputs — Accepts separate amplifier channels for bi-amp operation, giving integrators full control over crossover alignment and system tuning.
• White Architectural Finish — Clean white exterior integrates into light-colored commercial interiors and ceiling installations without visual disruption.
• Surface or U-Bracket Mount — Flexible mounting system supports a wide range of installation angles and wall or ceiling configurations.
• Commercial-Grade Construction — Built to withstand continuous operation in busy commercial environments including retail, hospitality, and corporate spaces.
• CBL Series Lineage — Part of the Blaze by Sonance CBL Series, a purpose-designed family of constant beamwidth loudspeakers for professional AV install.
• Scalable Deployment — Can be deployed as a standalone fill speaker or as part of a larger distributed system alongside other CBL Series models.

Frequently Asked Questions

What amplifier is recommended for the CBL528-BA-W?
The CBL528-BA-W requires bi-amp operation — one amplifier channel for the HF driver and one for the LF driver. Consult the Blaze by Sonance datasheet for impedance and power handling specifications before selecting an amplifier.

Is this speaker compatible with DSP processors?
Yes. The CBL528-BA-W is intended to be driven through a DSP processor handling crossover filtering and system alignment. Most commercial AV DSP platforms with adequate output channels are compatible.

Can the CBL528-BA-W be used with other CBL Series models?
Yes. The CBL Series is a cohesive product family. The CBL528-BA-W can be combined with other CBL Series models for main coverage, delays, or fill in the same system.

What mounting hardware is included?
The CBL528-BA-W supports surface mount and U-bracket mounting. Review the datasheet or contact Creation Networks to confirm included hardware and available accessory brackets.

Is the CBL528-BA-W available in black?
Yes. The black-finish version is the CBL528-BA-B (SKU: FGM-888-005), also available at Creation Networks.
