Introduction

The AT or Advanced Technology group of ceiling mount Loudspeakers is designed to deliver truly stunning performance with optimum installation flexibility. All models in the AT series are constructed using the highest quality components and utilize

advanced materials technology to create speakers capable of reproducing both music and movie soundtracks with incred- ible realism and sonic impact. They are perfect anywhere that ultimate sound quality is required.

Features and Benefits

Carbon/Glass Fiber with

Butyl Rubber Surround

The CM5AT, CM6AT and CM8AT loud- speakers employ an advanced cone material that combines carbon and fiber glass in a special weave that maximizes stiffness and minimizes cone break up. The result is a cone that delivers deep, powerful bass and unrivaled dynamic response.

1" Fluid-Cooled Ultra-Wide Dispersion

Tri-Laminate Teteron Tweeter in

Custom Pivoting Coaxial Enclosure

The Teteron tweeter employs a tri-lami- nate design consisting of an inner textile layer which forms the dome, a high damp- ing layer to kill unwanted resonances and an outside layer of urethane to add stiff- ness and prevent breakup modes. The result is a transparently clear, sweet, natur- al sounding tweeter which still maintains extended frequency response. This advanced tweeter is housed in a precision adjustment mechanism which permits the tweeter to be accurately positioned after installation for optimum performance and without the diffraction distortion typical of traditional pivoting tweeters.

No-Strip Speaker Terminal

Niles patented No-Strip terminal enables speakers to be connected without strip- ping the speaker wire. No-Strip terminals eliminate fumbling with wire strippers and input terminals. They are color coded and

simply plug into the crossover circuit boards on the back of Niles speakers, resulting in positive in-phase connections every time.

Moisture and UV Resistant Construction

The CM5AT, CM6AT and CM8AT loud- speakers are suitable for use in high mois- ture environments. The drivers are resis- tant to moisture and UV exposure; the grille is made of powder-coated alu- minum. However, the speakers are not waterproof and direct contact with water should be avoided.

Engineered for Ceiling Placement

The CM5AT, CM6AT and CM8AT have been specifically designed and tuned for optimum performance when mounted in a ceiling. The custom designed low diffrac- tion tweeter housing is mounted coaxially to avoid the “venetian blind” effect com- mon with ceiling speakers that employ sub-baffles as tweeter mounts. The 20° tweeter pivot angle ensures optimum high-frequency coverage.

Installer Selectable Acoustic

Fine Tuning

Installers can select to de-emphasize the bass or treble by 2dB to accommodate reflective surfaces and corner loading. This selection is accomplished via baffle- mounted controls that are accessible after the speaker has been installed.
