CDX1-1445 8 Ohm [Open Box]

The Celestion CDX1-1445 is a 1-inch compression driver built for PA horn applications that need a compact, bolt-on fit. It uses a single-piece PETP diaphragm and surround, with the diaphragm and rear cover integrated into one assembly so replacement is straightforward when a diaphragm eventually wears out. Rated at 20W continuous and 40W program power with an 8 ohm impedance (16 ohm also available), the driver reaches a sensitivity of 106dB, converting a small amount of amplifier power into significant output, useful for coverage in larger rooms or outdoor PA rigs. Its frequency range runs from 1,500Hz to 20,000Hz, with a recommended minimum crossover point of 2,200Hz at 12dB per octave, positioning it as the high-frequency half of a two-way or three-way PA cabinet paired with a horn. The bolt fitting, four M6 holes on a 76mm PCD, attaches directly to compatible horns without an adapter, and a 25mm throat exit keeps it compatible with standard 1-inch horn flares. A copper-clad aluminum voice coil on a 35mm former keeps the moving mass low for responsive high-frequency reproduction, while the ferrite magnet structure keeps the driver's overall weight down at 1.0kg. For anyone building or repairing a PA cabinet that calls for a bolt-fitting driver rather than a screw-on version, this unit drops in as a direct match for the CDX1-1445 specification.
