Atlantic Technology intros Azure in-ceiling speakers

Atlantic Technology has unveiled a new in-ceiling loudspeaker line, Azure. A step-up from its IC Series, Azure comprises three 6.5- and two 8-inch 2-way models (the Azure AZ600 6.5-inch; AZ610 6.5-inch and AZ810 8-inch). All are timbre-matched to Atlantic Technology’s existing range of in-room and in-wall speakers, creating new integration opportunities.

This brings the total number of architectural solutions from the brand to 13.

Azure’s woofers use lightweight low resonance formed fiberglass cones, the same material as found in its flagship 8600 and AT-3 H-PAS towers. The fiberglass provides superior uniformity, stiffness and speed, says the company, with the cones designed in a new curved shape to reduce distortion from break-up resulting in improved midrange clarity.

The woofers use high-temperature voice coils with a massive magnet structure and a vented pole piece along with butyl rubber surrounds to ensure high-end performance. The woofer is contained in a new non-resonant enclosure design with a horn-shaped profile for wide uniform mid-range dispersion.

High frequencies are handled by a proprietary coated silk dome Low Resonance Tweeter,mounted on a new bridge designed to reduce interaction with the woofer and 30° orbital pivoting allows installers to optimize sound to the listening area.

Installation-friendly features include ultra-thin bezel paintable magnetic grilles, secure quick-clamp mounting and heavy-duty gold-plated push-on terminals. Available are optional square thin bezel grilles, back boxes and pre-construction brackets. Both Azure and IC Series are designed to integrate with the brand’s in-wall subwoofers.
