AMC Series
AMC 6030
AN IN-CEILING VERSION OF SNELL’S MOST SUCCESSFUL LCR
To achieve the performance capabilities of a freestanding monitor, the flush-mount design used in the AMC 6030 overcomes three major factors that limited in-ceiling speaker performance. First, to insure predictable response, regardless of placement or construction type, the dual 5 1/4-inch woofers and low resonance tweeter are placed inside a sealed, aluminum enclosure, which defines bass response, just like a conventional loudspeaker’s enclosure, and reduces sound transfer through the ceil- ing cavity to other rooms. Second, specific materials are used to control resonance. The drivers are mounted to a well-braced and damped aluminum baffle, to enhance bass/midrange clarity and deaden wall resonance. The baffle is then welded to the well-damped, heavy gauge aluminum enclosure. Third, since flush mount speakers fail to produce a proper soundstage, the driver plane steers energy from above the ceiling line toward the listening area, at a 45-degree angle. The adjacent surfaces are lined with sound deadening materials to prevent cabinet reflections from caus- ing distortion. The result is open and clear sound that appears to be coming from the front instead of overhead. These attributes combine for a music or theater experience unheard of from an in-ceiling speaker. Designed by Snell’s chief engineer Joe D’Appolito, the AMC 6030 shares drivers and crossover from Snell’s in-room LCR7, in-wall AMC 830 and in-cabinet ICS 1030, re-engineered for the boundary and placement of a ceiling mount enclosure. The benefit is a quartet of models that can be mixed and matched to deliver the best music and theater experience possible
while blending in to any décor or room condition.
