ICS 1070

FOR BUILT-IN CABINETS, A UTILITY VERSION

OF THE ACCLAIMED D7 TOWER

The unique cabinet design, placement switch and wide dispersion tweeter of the ICS 1070 bring the performance of a freestanding high-end tower to an in-cabinet book- shelf enclosure. Conventional bookshelf loudspeakers sound “chesty” and image poorly when used in in-cabinet applications. The ICS 1070 is a 6.5-inch, D’Appolito Array, designed by Snell chief engineer, Joe D’Appolito, to fit into furniture and millwork, and, is tuned to compensate for the sonic problems that these cabinet boundaries cause. The twin 6.5-inch long throw woofers provide extended bass and plenty of output, while the 1-inch low-resonance, silk dome tweeter enables a large sweet spot for better stereo imaging. The ICS 1070 uses the same components as the Snell D7 Tower and AMC 870 in-wall monitor, mounted in a robust, texture-painted enclosure. This high output LCR can be used for Left, Center and Right or mixed and matched with these two siblings to provide clean, im- pactful sound with an effortless and “airy” soundstage… perfect for music and movies.

ICS 1070 specifications

The Snell Acoustics ICS 1070 is a sophisticated floor-standing loudspeaker designed to deliver exceptional audio performance in home audio and professional settings. Renowned for its elegant design and advanced technology, the ICS 1070 combines cutting-edge engineering with aesthetic appeal, making it a favorite among audiophiles and music enthusiasts.

One of the main features of the ICS 1070 is its innovative driver configuration. It utilizes a three-way design, featuring a 10-inch woofer, a 5-inch midrange driver, and a 1-inch tweeter. This combination ensures a wide frequency response, allowing the speaker to reproduce deep bass, articulate midrange, and crisp highs seamlessly. The specialized woofers are crafted from advanced composite materials, enhancing their stiffness while reducing distortion, resulting in a clean and dynamic sound profile.

A remarkable technology employed in the ICS 1070 is the custom-designed waveguide for the tweeter, which helps achieve exceptional dispersion and coherence across the listening area. This technology ensures that sound remains consistent, even when experienced from various angles, thereby creating an immersive listening environment.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the ICS 1070 is its cabinet design. The enclosure is constructed from MDF with a carefully designed internal bracing system that minimizes resonance and unwanted vibrations. This design approach contributes to the speaker's ability to deliver precise imaging and soundstage, making music and movies come alive.

The Snell Acoustics ICS 1070 also features bi-wiring/bi-amping capabilities, allowing users to connect multiple amplifiers for enhanced sound quality and flexibility. This option is particularly appealing to enthusiasts who desire more control over their audio setup and seek to maximize performance.

In terms of aesthetics, the ICS 1070 is available in a variety of finishes, enabling it to seamlessly integrate into any home décor. Its sleek lines and sophisticated design not only enhance visual appeal but also serve functional purposes by reducing diffraction.

In summary, the Snell Acoustics ICS 1070 stands out as a remarkable loudspeaker, featuring an advanced driver configuration, innovative waveguide technology, robust cabinet construction, and stylish design. It provides an unparalleled listening experience, making it an excellent choice for those seeking high-fidelity audio. All these attributes position the ICS 1070 as a leading option in the competitive loudspeaker market, appealing to both music lovers and professionals alike.
