basic information
Features of the "Protege C501" 1) Compact/thin, bezel-less design suitable for Japanese living environments The C501 can be introduced without imposing its presence, fitting seamlessly into the room sizes and ceiling depths of Japanese homes. While typical ceiling-mounted speakers have a bezel that exposes a plastic edge around the outer side of the speaker grille, this speaker features a minimal design where the bezel is hidden by a magnetically attached grille. It is also easy to paint the speaker to match the color of the ceiling material. 2) High sound quality suitable for home theaters and spatial audio Utilizing a coaxial 2-way design commonly found in high-end floor-standing speakers, it achieves a balanced and extended sound quality from low to high frequencies. Additionally, the high-frequency unit (tweeter) can be pivoted to change its direction. 3) Durable specifications and warranty Designed with a low impedance (8Ω) equivalent to consumer audio, it can be driven by standard stereo amplifiers or AV surround amplifiers, allowing you to enjoy various content over the years. The speaker comes with a reassuring 3-year long-term warranty as a residential facility.
