Cerwin-Vega CVT-12
Little is documented about the Cerwin-Vega CVT-12. The one solid period reference that survives is a speaker listing in HiFI-Stereo (1999, p.152), which appears to describe the CVT-12 in a specifications roundup. That entry records: fuse protection, 400 W continuous power handling, crossover points at 400 Hz and 4.5 kHz, frequency response of 27 Hz–20 kHz ±3 dB, 102 dB sensitivity, 4 ohm impedance, and dimensions of 18 × 35¾ × 17¾ inches at 90 lb.
Those figures point to a large, efficient, high-power floor-standing speaker. That fits Cerwin's reputation for big, sensitive home and professional-leaning designs. The crossover at 400 Hz implies a dedicated woofer handling the lower range, with a mid/high driver taking over from there. The surviving source doesn't name the drivers.
Beyond that listing, nothing else has surfaced. No production years, original price or design context are recorded. The CVT-12 appears to have been a legitimate Cerwin-Vega model of the late 1990s.
