The AIM Series
The pivoting tweeter was only the beginning of an idea that would change
the industry forever. Mimicking the adjustable air vent found above your
seat in almost every airplane, the AIM series allows the entire speaker
assembly to be pointed in the desired direction. This patented technology
means that although the speaker location may not be ideal because of
other obstructions in the ceiling such as light fixtures or heating vents, the
sound can still be aimed directly at the listener while remaining hidden
behind a flush-mounted grille. This completely changes music and theater
sound and brings the experience down out of the ceiling to fully integrate
it into the living space.

All of this would be useless if the technology wasn’t applied correctly to
create superior sound. This is where speaker design becomes more than
science and crosses the boundary into an art form. Our engineers do
much more than stare at computer screens and test instruments. Although
the skills necessary to technically analyze loudspeaker performance
are critical, we know that the end result must appeal to the human ear.
Therefore, we listen. For hours, days and sometimes weeks as the final
product is fine-tuned to deliver every nuance of the musical performance.

SECTION A-A
Another patented breakthrough in the AIM series is the WavePlane.
This series of concentric rings in front of the woofer create more uniform
dispersion and improve the clarity of higher frequencies. Sound that is
often distorted by interaction between the woofer and the tweeter is
now evenly spread throughout the listening area.

NEAT! Ideas
Since aesthetics are such an important part of the custom installation
offering, we are always looking for ways to make the speakers we sell more
attractive. For some the flange around the speaker is less than attractive so
various attempts have been made to hide it. The new NEAT grilles allow for
a simple installation that leaves only a very small exposed edge. The result
is a finished install that is grille only and less obtrusive in the room. These
grilles can be retrofit onto the majority of AIM ceiling speakers.
