Its proprietary dual-entrant asymmetrical horn delivers consistent coverage and uniform volume shading in Dolby Atmos rooms up to approximately 165 feet (50.3 m) deep. The stack covers 31 Hz to 20 kHz with 139 dB maximum summed continuous SPL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Dolby System 136 work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CS136MH horn combines a custom ring radiator mid-frequency compression driver, which covers the 400 Hz to 4 kHz vocal range, with a titanium-diaphragm high-frequency compression driver. The dual-entrant design keeps the drivers close for pattern control around the crossover, with coverage of 55° top and 100° bottom horizontally and 50° vertical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo stacked CS136LF cabinets, each with two 15-inch woofers, carry the low end. The top cabinet is rated at 1400 W @ 74.8 Vrms and the bottom at 900 W @ 60 Vrms, together producing 138 dB continuous. Each CS136LF flip card allows parallel 4-ohm or individual 8-ohm wiring, and the input plates support tri-amp or quad-amp system configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBKT.136 tie plates (included) secure the CS136LF cabinets together, and the optional BKT.FLR floor bracket anchors the stack. Laser aiming sights in the horn work with the tilt and pan mechanisms for accurate aiming.
