This dedicated surround sound speaker is the ideal choice when uncompromising performance is demanded.
An addition to our top-of-the-range Custom Theatre 800 Series, which brings the same legendary technology used in B&W’s 800 Series of stand-alone speakers to your home theatre set-up. The CT8.4 LCRS is designed as an alternative to the CT8 DS side/rear channel speaker when space is at a premium: it’s a smaller, more compact vertical surround sound speaker that generates exactly the same authentically three-dimensional listening experience. The CT8.4 LCRS also packs enough power to act as a stand-alone loudspeaker positioned front, side and rear within a complete custom theatre system.
