Overview
The Cinema Ribbon CRW-3 and the
CRW-3C are high performance loud-
speakers that are specically designed to
work with your at panel display. Sharing
technology with the rest of the Cinema
Ribbon line, years of research and
decades of experience have gone into
these amazing loudspeakers.
The ribbon - a legacy rened
The ribbon in this loudspeaker is a re-
markable piece of engineering, because
it has the output capability, purity, and
low distortion of a large 6-foot-tall ribbon
- in fact, it is derived from Bob Carver’s
award-winning Amazing Loudspeaker
from the late 1970s! The sound from the
CRW-3 ribbon is deliberately focused
in the forward direction, with very little
sound going up or down - reducing reec-
tions off the ceiling and oor, that disturb
our sense of space and imaging. The
CRW-3C features an integrated “acoustic
lens,” that disperses the signal for center
channel applications.
The woofers - a legacy rened
Sunre created the category of small-
box, high-power subwoofers more than
a decade ago with the original True
Subwoofer. This design relies on high-
pressure, “High Back-emf” technology
that provides very high bass output from
a very small box. When migrating this
subwoofer technology to the midrange
and high frequencies on the Cinema
CRW-3 loudspeaker
CRW-3C center loudspeaker
Ribbon CRW loudspeakers, you get the
same advantages: high output, small
size, high efciency, and years of trouble-
free operation.
Conclusion
The Cinema Ribbon CRW loudspeak-
ers are a no-compromise answer to the
age-old question of Form vs. Function.
Why not get both? Combine these speak-
ers with the SubRosa In-wall subwoofer
for the ultimate in hidden high perfor-
mance.
Installation overview
A template is supplied to help mark
the sheetrock for cutting. A paint shield
is also supplied to aid in painting the
loudspeakers.
An optional pre-construction bracket
is available that will help you install the
loudspeakers in rooms that are under
construction. Please contact Sunre to
order this bracket. (It comes with its own
installation guide.)
The CRW-3 may be mounted vertically
between wall studs, either side of your
big screen display.
The CRW-3C may be mounted hori-
zontally, above or below your display. For
existing walls, the horizontal mounting
will involve cutting a vertical stud and
some extra framing.
The CRW-3C may also be used
vertically as left and right loudspeakers,
in which case, the acoustic lens can be
removed.
A system of six screw clamps secure
the loudspeaker rmly in place in the
sheetrock, once the opening has been
cut.
