C-1 SL Overview:
This multi purpose monitor shares many
characteristics with the other models in the SL
range range. Maintaining Artcoustic’s clean
contemporary design, the C-1 SL has been designed
to match all modern flat screen monitors and can
be mounted horizontally or vertically. The C-1 SL
is perfect for the most demanding of applications.
Partner it with an Artcoustic Subwoofer for a truly
full range, dynamic performance.
Wired as a single mono configuration, the C-1 SL
is a highly sensitive speaker and is therefore capable
of reproducing very high sound pressure levels
from modest (20watt+) amplifiers.
The C-1 SL can be installed as a stereo speaker or
as a single mono speaker
