Planar-magnetic center channel • Quasi-ribbon transducers • Ultra-thin wall-mountable design • Designed for seamless Magnepan integration
Overview — Magnepan CC5
The Magnepan CC5 Center Channel Speaker (Each) is purpose-built to deliver clear,
natural dialogue and precise imaging in high-performance home theater systems.
Using Magnepan’s planar-magnetic technology, the CC5 reproduces voices with exceptional speed,
coherence, and tonal accuracy.
Unlike conventional boxed center speakers, the CC5 employs quasi-ribbon planar drivers
in an ultra-thin enclosure that minimizes cabinet coloration. The result is articulate,
intelligible dialogue that blends seamlessly with Magnepan left and right channel speakers.
The CC5 is optimized for speech clarity and front-stage cohesion and is intended
to be paired with a quality subwoofer for full-range performance.

Seamless tonal matching — Designed to integrate naturally with Magnepan main speakers.
Wide horizontal dispersion — Maintains intelligibility across multiple seating positions.
Low-profile installation — Slim design fits under displays or mounts directly to the wall.
Low coloration sound — Box-less presentation with fast transient response.
Planar-Magnetic Technology
Magnepan’s planar-magnetic design drives an ultra-light diaphragm evenly across its surface,
reducing distortion and improving transient response compared to conventional cone speakers.
The quasi-ribbon elements used in the CC5 provide excellent detail retrieval and clarity,
making dialogue sound natural and intelligible even at lower listening levels.
Proper placement and amplification are important to fully realize the benefits of planar-magnetic technology.
System Integration & Amplifier Matching
With a nominal 4-ohm impedance and moderate sensitivity, the CC5 performs best
when paired with quality amplification capable of stable current delivery.
A powered subwoofer is strongly recommended, as the CC5 focuses on midrange and dialogue frequencies
rather than deep bass output.
