Frequently asked questions
Which speaker works for mobile live sound?
The XPRS102 is purpose-built for live performance with integrated amplification, DSP presets optimized for speech and music, and a portable handle. The CM-S58T-W requires an external amplifier and 70V/100V distribution, making it better suited for fixed installations.
Can either speaker work outdoors?
The CM-S58T-W has an IP54 ingress rating, permitting use in partially exposed outdoor environments with dust and moisture. The XPRS102 has no stated weatherproofing and is intended for covered venues.
What frequency range does each deliver?
The CM-S58T-W covers 53 Hz–20 kHz (–10 dB) with an 8-inch woofer and 1-inch tweeter. The XPRS102 reaches 50 Hz–20 kHz with a 10-inch woofer and 1-inch compression driver, offering slightly lower bass extension and higher maximum output at 129 dB SPL.
Which is better for retrofit projects?
The CM-S58T-W was designed for retrofit installations with selectable 70V/100V taps (60 W / 30 W / 15 W / 7.5 W) and loop-through daisy-chaining. The XPRS102 requires dedicated power and control, making it more suited to new builds or systems where self-powered speakers are preferred.
