The Perlisten Audio S3ic In-Ceiling Speaker offers uncompromised sound quality for immersive audio experiences. With advanced engineering principles, this speaker achieves remarkable fidelity in a compact form factor.
The S3ic employs a proprietary Directivity Control (DPC) Waveguide Array with a combination of advanced driver materials, such as the Beryllium dome tweeter and Textreme TPCD midrange and woofers. This engineering allows for a tailored frequency response that ensures sound consistency across a wider listening area, effectively managing off-axis response for an immersive auditory experience. The robust aluminum back box minimizes sound transmission, enhancing clarity and maintaining acoustical integrity. Its design incorporates a 3-way acoustic suspension alignment delivering sensitive detail in the vocal range and smooth reproduction across the entire frequency spectrum up to 30kHz. This speaker is engineered for versatile applications including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, showcasing true high-fidelity home theater capabilities.
