CHS80 High Performance In-Cabinet Speaker
Many high-end home theater systems have most of their
components, including the speakers, hidden away in cabinets.
While this hides the hardware it can be detrimental to speaker
performance. Understanding this, PSB pioneered the concept of
purpose-designed systems for in-cabinet installations. The CHS80,
is an in-cabinet loudspeaker modeled after PSB’s prestigious
flagship Platinum T8 tower speaker. Using the components of the
highly regarded T8, the CHS80 is a five driver, three way high
power/high output speaker with a highly designed crossover network
optimized for in-cabinet application. It delivers “Platinum-Class”
performance. The CHS80 includes two crossover compensation
switches to adjust for in-cabinet boundary effects or for center
channel applications behind a perforated screen. The enclosure
construction meets Platinum-Series standards of rigidity and
freedom from unwanted resonance. The system is constructed as
a highly durable cabinet with a tough textured “spatter coat” matte
black paint finish. It is dimensioned to fit within custom or readymade media furniture.

The CHS80 has the audio critics raving. Chris Martens from The
Perfect Vision says “At last, true high-end sound from an ‘invisible’
speaker.” And Chris Lewis from Home Theater says “The CHS80 is
a modified version of the excellent Platinum T8, and I was pleased to
hear that it maintains virtually all of its predecessor’s fidelity. PSB’s
CustomSound line is proof that the best of both worlds—top-shelf
performance and uncompromised aesthetics— can be brought
together. The CHS80 is strong, dynamic, and highly musical.
Combine these speakers with a custom cabinet and you’ve got a
system that delivers the full potential of music and movies yet looks
as clean and polished as a top-shelf custom install. What more could
you want?”
