Key Features
FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION: Enjoy high-performance audio, ideal for music, distributed audio, and home theater installations. We've also refined the look underneath the grille over other in-wall/in-ceiling speakers for those who want to show off their high-performance speakers.
MICRO CERAMIC COMPOSITE: Our MCC is an aluminum alloy with ceramic infusion. Micro-arc oxidation heats the aluminum base and produces a dense oxide on the metal surface. A micro-thin layer of ceramic is added to the alloy and is cooled. The result is our Micro Ceramic Composite that combines the stiffness and articulation of aluminum with the warmth and thickness of ceramic.
KEEP IT SIMPLE: Tool-less magnetic grilles, spring-loaded 5-way binding post, and industry standard indog earin mounting tabs make installation a breeze.
BUILT TO LAST: High quality components and a robust crossover network ensure that your speakers will provide immersive sound for years.16AWG internal connecting wires deliver the signal to the drivers, distortion-free.
