high frequency contour switch

A 3-position switch located on the tweeter plate serves as a high frequency contour control. The upper position offers a “normal” response suitable for most applications. The bottom position provides the most output and is recommended for off-axis listening or if the speakers are mounted very high. The center position provides the least and is recommended for reflective “bright” rooms. The upper position is the best starting point. Due to room acoustics and/or personal preference, you may prefer either of the other positions. Be sure to try all of these positions and decide on your preference before installing the grills. If you find it necessary to re-adjust the tweeter levels after the grills have been installed, please follow the removing the grille section on page 6.

woofer

The HT series incorporates the use of a 5 1/4” woofer with a proprietary diaphragm made from a spherical inverted dome sandwiches to a copolymer cone, and utilizing a strontium ferrite magnet structure for well-damped, extended bass.

advanced industrial design

In the world of in-wall speakers, most competing products can be categorized by their incredible degree of similarity. Regardless of the manufacturer, product offerings are limited to the same style of molded plastic chassis, the same types of mounting systems, similar drivers and the same limited performance capability. The HT series is a striking exception to this trend. Using the most advanced injection-molded driver technology available, it outperforms all others in its category. Attractively styled in a neutral off- white finish, it can be painted to perfectly match any wall.

aluminum extrusion mounting side-rails

The advantage to this design is an incredibly rigid, durable mounting system that runs the entire length of the speaker from top to bottom. The mounting brackets do the same. As a result, the speaker is tightened to the wall over the full length of both of its sides.

quick & easy post-construction installation

Thanks to the aluminum extrusion mounting side-rails, installation couldn’t be easier. Cut out the hole, insert the speaker, and tighten the screws. That’s all there is to it.

engineered for critical music listening

While it is believed by many that in-walls do not do the best job of reproducing audio, a/d/s/ pushed the envelope in engineering this line of in-walls. From beginning to end, the HT series was engineered to deliver the best possible sonic reproduction.

ready for home-theatre entertainment

a/d/s/ Home Theatre in-wall speakers are now video-shielded, making them the perfect candidates for a high- quality home-theatre system without having to use more intrusive bookshelf speakers.

d’Appolito array (HT400iw & HT800iw only)

The d’Appolito array offers symmetrical and uniform dispersion making it possible for horizontal or vertical installation adding appeal for the home-theatre enthusiast.

“2 1/2-way” crossover (HT800iw only)

The crossover was designed using all high quality components to create smooth acoustic slopes, while the “2 1/2-way tuning” helps to add crisp, clean bass. The two center woofers and tweeter perform exactly as the HT400iw creating a complete 2-way system. The two outside drivers are responsible only for the reproduction of low frequencies helping to augment the bass output.
