The Sonance 70V/100V or 4 Ohm Invisible Speaker combines best in class sonic performance with the most flexible installation processes making them the perfect solution for projects requiring high quality audio combined with zero visual intrusion. Best used in commercial venues such as luxury retail, designer hotels, residential high rise apartments and any premium space where audio should be hidden to preserve the essence of the atmosphere.
Sonance Invisible Series IS8T is a great invisible solution for commercial spaces requiring premium performance with zero compromise to design. This is the larger of two Commercial variants of the Invisible Speaker and has an 8" Air Flex Woofer.
Sonance Motion Flex Technology is a revolutionary approach to designing flat panelled invisible speakers, featuring a Wave Flex Drive Unit, an Air Flex Woofer, an Acoustically Isolated Baffle, and a Constant Directivity Crossover.
The Sonance Air Flex Drive Unit is a high bandwidth midrange and high frequency transducer combination that leverage the bending wave principle to deliver exceptionally smooth mid and crystal clear highs. The Air Flex Woofer couples a fibre glass woofer to an acoustically inert diaphragm, trapping a pocket of air that can be pushed without loss to deliver robust and powerful bass.
Sonance Constant Directivity Crossover (CDX) provides smooth off-axis frequency response, resulting in nearly 180 degrees of horizontal and vertical dispersion.
Installation
Sonance has revolutionised the invisible speaker category beyond just performance and design. Sonance has redefined how invisible speakers are installed and standardised with the Sonance Depth Identification Sensing Calibration (DISC) System.
Sonance Invisible Series is complete with supporting installation accessories like pre-construction brackets, space savers, and noise isolating enclosures. These installation accessories ensure a simple step by step process throughout the construction phase to reserve speaker placement and ensure a flawless finish.
Important: Sonance Invisible Series speakers must only be skimmed with an appropriate lightweight flexible compound such as British Gypsum's Easi-Fill. Standard pink Multi-Finish plaster must not be used. Using the incorrect finishing plaster will adversely affect the audio performance and will invalidate the warranty.
