What’s THX?

THX is a series of standards and technologies originally developed by LucasFilm Ltd. (of Star Wars fame) and now an entity unto itself. These technologies and standards are intended to ensure that what you hear and see on your A/V system, as closely as possible, matches what the director/ artist/engineer heard and saw during the final mixing of the source mate- rial. THX standards are intended to enhance every type of viewing and listening experience including the latest discrete multi-channel digital for- mats.Please note however that,although there is proprietary THX electronic processing, THX is not a surround format.

THX Ultra2 standards are based on a 3000 cubic foot room (L x W x H = cu. ft.). This does not mean Ultra2 certified components must be used in rooms this exact size. The room sizes simply provide a frame of reference, as the standards specify that the system must deliver certain performance minimums (volume, frequency response, etc.) in the specified space. For more information, see the THX website at www.thx.com.

IWTS-155 specifications

The Atlantic Technology IWTS-155 is a high-performance in-wall subwoofer designed to deliver exceptional audio quality while seamlessly integrating into any home theater or audio system. This innovative subwoofer is part of Atlantic Technology's commitment to providing powerful sound solutions that do not compromise on aesthetics or space.

One of the standout features of the IWTS-155 is its unique design, which allows it to fit discreetly within the wall, conserving valuable floor space and creating a clean, unobtrusive look. Its shallow profile makes installation straightforward, whether in new construction or retrofitting into existing spaces. The IWTS-155 is engineered with a robust 15-inch poly-plastic cone woofer, which enables it to produce deep, impactful bass response that enhances the overall audio experience.

The IWTS-155 utilizes advanced technologies to ensure superior performance. One notable technology is its dual 2-inch voice coils, which facilitate improved power handling and increased efficiency. This design choice contributes to the subwoofer's ability to handle high volume levels without distortion, making it ideal for both music and movie playback.

Another key feature is the built-in electronic crossover, which optimizes frequency response for various audio setups. This crossover allows seamless integration with other speakers in a surround sound system, ensuring that every audio element, from thunderous explosions to subtle sound effects, is reproduced accurately. The IWTS-155 also includes a rectangular port design that minimizes air turbulence and enhances low-frequency output, resulting in a more dynamic listening experience.

Regarding installation, the IWTS-155 is equipped with a mounting system that simplifies the process for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. Its easy-to-use brackets secure the subwoofer in place while allowing for precise positioning within the wall cavity.

The IWTS-155 has a durable grille that can be painted to match the wall color, allowing it to blend effortlessly into any room decor. This feature not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the installation but also protects the driver from dust and debris.

In summary, the Atlantic Technology IWTS-155 is a powerful in-wall subwoofer that combines cutting-edge technology with a sleek, unobtrusive design.
