SpeakerCraft aim8 one Broschüre
The architectural loudspeaker has had a gigantic influence on the evolution of today’s home.
Not surprisingly, it was SpeakerCraft that invented it. We knew the modern lifestyle would
alter the way that sound was experienced. And thanks to speaker designs like the new AIM8
Series, music and movies sound better than ever.
Enter the new SpeakerCraft AIM8™ Series: a range of five high-performance models
designed for ceiling installation, each with an 8" woofer. With the added benefit of our new
WavePlane™, the AIM8™ speakers deliver outstanding bass response, beautifully balanced
midrange and accurate high end.
The AIM8 Series speakers are marvels of technology, with *Kevlar
™
woofers and liquid-cooled
magnesium/aluminum tweeters. In addition, the low-frequency driver and tweeter are fully
aimable, directing their output toward you for better perspective. And should the room fur-
nishings or layout change, it’s no problem. Fingertip control means the AIM8™ speakers can
be re-aimed whenever and wherever you want.
Superior response across the frequency spectrum, greater clarity and richer, tighter bass are
all part of the new AIM8™ Series. Whether in a room-to-room stereo setup or a home theater
design, these models deliver unrivaled imaging for movies and music.
We know you want to get the most out of each area in your home. That’s why the AIM8™ Series performs so well in tidy
guestrooms, master suites, living rooms and even patios. Whether it’s background music, talk radio or a major sports event, you’ll
never have to miss out. From kitchen to poolside, SpeakerCraft brings concert sound to your private oasis.
The SpeakerCraft line also includes multi-room amplifiers, digital touch-screen/touch-pad control systems, volume controls and
in-wall personal stereos. We offer the best powered in-wall, in-ceiling and freestanding subwoofers, plus the controls and relays
that make everything work seamlessly. And those who like spending time outdoors will love SpeakerCraft. With our “rocks” in the
landscape, it’s like having your own amphitheater!
Frequency Equalization
Switches:
Switches:
Separate front-mounted EQ
switches for bass and treble on the AIM8™ Five, Four, Three and Two
models let you tailor frequency response plus or minus 3dB to suit
your room’s acoustics. You won’t find yourself wishing for more or less
sound from the left or right speaker just because you don’t happen to
sit between them.
It’s easy to get the sound you want: Just flick a switch. Front-mounted
EQ and independent, pivoting driver and tweeter make the AIM8™
Series tops in user-friendly performance.
Independently Pivoting Woofer and Tweeter:
The drivers and
tweeters in the AIM8™ models pivot independently, meaning you can
direct the low and high frequencies for a precise acoustical fit. It’s a feature
you won’t find in ordinary speakers. The AIM8™ Series is your assurance of
proper phase, accurate frequency response and enhanced stereo imaging.
And when placed overhead at the rear in a home theater configuration,
they can be directed away from the listener. This gives background sound
the critical degree of diffusion it needs.
A home theater audio system can boost the excitement and dynamics
of movies and concerts. But to make it work you need channel
separation, spatial imaging and dynamic response. The AIM8™ models
let you aim the midrange drivers and/or tweeters, meaning the sound
from the front speakers can come together for better “imaging.”
It’s the beauty of the AIM8™ speakers that they can do so much while
remaining hidden. Recessed behind flush-mount grilles, they deliver
incredible sound without the need for bulky speaker cabinets.
It’s a different story with rear-channel speakers. Most movie soundtracks
direct background sounds such as rain, echoes, explosions and distant
events to the rear speakers. This requires crisp and accurate sound up
front and diffusion at the rear of the space. The AIM8™ models, with
their pivoting tweeters and the unique WavePlane™ baffle, answer
the call. While the high-frequency sound, being directional in nature,
bounces off adjacent walls, the WavePlane™ distributes the midrange
frequencies evenly across a broad area.
SpeakerCraft has manufactured millions of in-wall and in-ceiling
loudspeakers, and you have our pledge that each product we build
provides the highest level of workmanship and performance. It’s a
commitment to quality matched only by our warranty . . . LIFETIME.
