THE OPINION OF THE LAB
The ARIANE C2 is a central channel intended to be associated with other speakers of the ARIANE range, for a Home Theater configuration. This speaker, of beautiful size, has the characteristic to be a 3-way model for 4 drivers. Compared to its little “sister” (the model Ariane C, simpler in design), the midrange and the tweeter are on the same vertical axis, which makes the listening less directive. The listener perceives the dialogues better, even if he is not sitting perfectly in the axis of the speaker.
Equipped with two cellulose woofers, an aramid fiber midrange, and a 20 mm cellulose tweeter, this center channel is perfectly homogeneous with the Ariane 5 or 7 floor standing speakers, to obtain a coherent sound stage. The DAVIS laboratory has worked to obtain a very linear sensitivity curve, in order to avoid emphasizing one part of the frequencies to the benefit of another. This ensures long hours of listening without auditory fatigue.
The loudspeaker is equipped with non-slip pads, which tilt the loudspeaker slightly towards the back. In addition to an aesthetic effect, this allows the start of the coils of the two speakers to be aligned in the vertical plane. The propagation of sound is then improved.
From an aesthetic point of view, as for the whole range, the model is available in three different versions: the Walnut finish (white front and Walnut sides), light oak (with black front) and the more discreet black finish (6 black sides). The protective covers are rounded for a modern aesthetic effect.
We recommend a configuration in “wide” mode of the product (full bandwidth).
