REINVENT Sonance Cinema Series Speakers

The all-new Cinema Series speakers combine the aesthetic appeal of the award-winning Sonance Visual Performance® Series and the reference-quality sound of Sonance speakers. Sonance Cinema Series speakers transform just about any room into a movie theater. They surround you in sound, capturing every nuance of the romance, the drama, and the action with prestine clarity. The new Sonance Cinema Series speakers are made of top quality high-performance materials which ensure that each speaker will generate perfect sound.

Micro-trim grille design

The new Sonance Cinema Series speakers feature Visual Performance grilles that effortlessly blend into the home theater - letting you focus on the movie experience and not the speakers.

Coaxial midrange / tweeter drivers

The new Cinema LCR and SUR speakers feature a unique coaxial midrange/high-frequency driver. The midrange driver features a low-profile cone that does not compromise the performance of the tweeter mounted in its center. This arrangement results in extremely consistent off-axis frequency response that provides the same reference-quality sound to every listener, not just those sitting in the “sweet spot”.

Dual and quad woofers

The new Cinema Series speakers feature two woofers in the LCR1 and SUR1 and four woofers in the LCR2 and SUR2. In a typical installation, using single woofer speaker reflections off the floor and ceiling can cause dips in the frequency response up to 6dB. With a dual woofer speaker, these dips are minimized since the two woofers will be unequal distance from these reflective surfaces. In a dual or quad woofer speaker, 3dB is the maximum amount of cancelation that can occur. This, combined with the coaxial driver, produces a speaker with the highest degree of sonic accuracy and the lowest room placement sensitivity.

Laminated cones

The midrange and woofer drivers both have cones featuring a laminate of carbon fiber and Rohacell®. These two materials combine to make a cone that is very light, non-resonant and extremely stiff. Additionally, the density of the cone material prevent sound produced by the backs of the drivers from being transmitted through the cone material, a common problem with less dense materials.

Integrated ¾” medium density fiberboard (MDF) enclosure

All of the Cinema Series models feature an integrated enclosure made from ¾”-thick MDF. The enclosure’s density and rigidity prevents sound leakage from the speaker’s rear, minimizing sound intrusion into adjacent spaces. In addition, the MDF is non-resonant, which minimizes the sonic colorations that can rob film soundtracks of clarity and impact.

Enclosure damping material

To minimize the transfer of vibrational energy from the Cinema enclosure to its surrounding wall, the inner surfaces of the enclosure are lined with a visco-elastic dampening laminate. This damping material turns the vibrational energy into heat which is then dissipated inside the enclosure.

Die-cast baskets

All the woofer and midrange drivers feature custom die-cast aluminum baskets for maximum rigidity. These baskets not only keep the placement of the voice consistent they are also non-ferrous and do not drain any of the magnetic field away from the driver’s motor system.
