their home theater installations over the next 12 months,

somewhat.

Stealth Acoustics: Install NoCompromise Invisible Audio Solutions
For demanding audiophiles who seek
impeccable audio
performance yet desire
the aesthetic benefits
that only true invisibility can offer, Stealth
Acoustics' eighth-generation LineaResponseX (LRX) Series invisible speakers offer the solution.
Enhanced driver sets, mechanically tuned diaphragms
and FidelityGlass Advanced lamination processes combine to make them the highest performing, best sounding
invisible speakers. LRX Series speakers are ideal for home
theater surround-sound and Dolby Atmos systems as
well as stereo listening and media rooms.
AV integrators love Stealth's LRX speakers because
the impressive power handling and 170-degree field of
dispersion allows them to easily integrate into any top-tier
project. Designers love LRX speakers because the completely invisible nature won't interfere with the flow and
style of a room. Homeowners love LRX speakers because
they just sound great!
At the heart of each LineaResponseX speaker is the
FidelityGlass Advanced laminated radiating diaphragm,
driven by high- and mid- frequency motors along with
true cone woofers to generate smooth, full range sound
without any visible speaker grilles.
LRX speakers are installed directly into a wall or ceiling
in a process similar to installing a drywall patch. Standard
wall finishing techniques are all that is necessary to render the speakers completely invisible. On-site finishing
options include latex paint, light wallpaper, fabrics and
selected texture coats.
Once installed, LineaResponseX invisible speakers are
designed to achieve a lifetime of maintenance-free use.
Built-in circuitry prevents excessive input from an amplifier from damaging the speakers, protecting your customers' investment and creating peace of mind.

Not only do integrators earn fewer dollars from a multipurpose-room home theater installation, the profit margin
is also lower at 24%.
