SpeakerCraft's AIM DiPole to Offer Dramatic Rear-channel In-wall Option (3/11/2006)

Unique baffle design to enhance home theater offering

SpeakerCraft, the world's leading manufacturer of custom installed loudspeakers, announces the AIM DiPole. Creating a diffused sound field for rear channel surround has become critical to mimic the array of speakers along the side and back walls of a traditional movie theater. The new AIM DiPole does this in a very elegant format.

Each speaker has two 5 1/4-inch woofers and two 1-inch dome tweeters placed 50 degrees off-axis from each other. Two switchable settings allow the speaker to operate in either a bipole configuration or in opposite polarity as a dipole to create the desired null at the listening area. In the second position there is a circuit to retain bass response, which would normally be lost in the cancellation through the opposite output from the two woofers.

"The drivers are mounted in a baffle that has been carefully molded with graceful curves and angles to avoid any sharp reflections" remarked Jeff Francisco, SpeakerCraft's Vice-president of Engineering. "The result is a piece of acoustic artwork that is impressive in both its style and its performance."
