Its high-frequency section uses the PRD500 planar ribbon transducer designed and manufactured by SLS Audio, paired with a 12-inch woofer. The front-ported enclosure extends bass to 40 Hz and suits small theaters with 50 to 75 seats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Dolby SLS CS50 work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe planar ribbon driver gives fast transient accuracy and an exceptionally smooth high-frequency response. Its properties also deliver more direct sound to the audience, even allowing for the spreading effect of a perforated screen. A passive crossover splits the signal between the ribbon and the 12-inch low-frequency driver, so the CS50 runs from one amplifier channel at 8 ohms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoverage is 90° horizontal by 40° vertical (-6 dB, not including screen scattering), with 99 dB sensitivity and 120 W (31 V) AES\/2 power handling. Calculated maximum output is 120 dB continuous and 126 dB peak at one metre. The cabinet is 13-ply 3\/4-inch Baltic birch with a flat black latex finish, and an included U-bracket simplifies installation and aiming behind the screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CS50 is also the mid\/high section of the SLS System 100A when paired with the CSB115 low-frequency module.
