Description  
The CM590i is a high-powered 5.25”  
2-way loudspeaker in a ported in-ceiling  
enclosure design. The CM590i incorporates  
a low-profile grille, proprietary HP5TM  
motor-board and 6-position tap switch  
with voice coil/8 Ohm direct. A tile bridge  
is included and the speaker features a fast-  
action SpeedWingTM for easy and secure  
installation.

Applications  
Engineered for high-SPL and effective  
low-end response (69 Hz @ - 10 dB), the  
CM590i delivers consistent high-perfor-  
mance music and paging for applications  
requiring longer throw or higher volume  
above the existing ambient noise level. The  
CM590i is ideal for in-ceiling sound rein-  
forcement/PA in applications with high  
ambient noise levels including casinos,  
warehouses, airports, transportation & ship-  
ping centers, schools, gyms, arenas and sta-  
diums. For additional bass down to 43 Hz  
(-10 dB) the CM801i subwoofer may be used.
