Introduction, Antiresonant Wave Bracing | Niles Audio AT5, AT8, AT6

Introduction

The AT or Advanced Technology group of In-Wall Loudspeakers is designed to deliv- er truly stunning performance with opti- mum 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.

An AT5/AT6/AT8 Speaker Kit; and the corresponding Bracket Kit (5, 6 or 8) is required to install one pair of AT5/AT6/AT8 In-Wall loudspeakers in either new or existing construction.

Features and Benefits

Woven Carbon/Fiber Glass Woofer with Butyl Rubber Surround, Dispersion Stabilizer, Vented Pole Piece and Custom Debris Screen

The Niles AT Advanced Technology series loudspeakers 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. The woofer also features a vented pole piece for increased bass linearity and a Butyl Rubber Surround for improved midrange damping and clarity as well as moisture resistance. A hyperbolic dispersion stabilizer helps to maintain smooth frequency response off-axis. Custom debris screens keep insulation from coming in contact with the woofer.

1” Teteron Tri-laminate Tweeter

Housed in a Precision Adjustment

Mechanism

The AT series Teteron Tweeter employs a tri-laminate design consisting of an inner textile layer which forms the dome, a high damping layer to kill unwanted resonances and an outside layer of urethane to add stiffness 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.

Antiresonant Wave Bracing

The AT speaker’s baffle design employs specially molded ribs that increase the rigidity of the baffle and raise the resonant frequency so that less “out-of-phase” can- cellation takes place. Equally important, the ribs are curved and crossed to further shift vibration modes away from low-bass canceling frequencies. This keeps bass tones rich and dynamic.

Front-Mounted Bass & Treble Controls

Niles Advanced Technology speaker models feature four position baffle- mounted tone controls for Bass and Treble that enable instant fine tuning after the speakers are installed. This fea- ture helps to lessen the effects of less than perfect placement or other room acoustics anomalies.

Snap-in Baffle Assembly

This proprietary Niles design enables installers to attach Niles loudspeaker assemblies to installed frames without addi- tional hardware or tools. Niles' Snap-in design makes it easy to upgrade Niles' speakers after installation without the has- sles associated with removal and re-instal- lation of traditional designs. Snap-in baffles make installation of Niles speaker baffle easier and faster than other in-wall brands.
