SURROUND
SURROUND SOUND AND ATMOS™
As ATMOS surround sound technology has migrated from the movie theater to home theater systems, more speakers are
required to add "height" to the soundscape. Additional speaker channels mean that audio is no longer limited to the left/right
"X" axis and front/rear "Y" axis but now incorporate the up/down "Z" axis for a true 3D sound experience.
Yet, adding "Z" axis speakers typically means adding more bulky speaker boxes and unsightly grilles which clutter the
aesthetic design of a room. This is exactly the wrong direction for dealers who want happy architects, interior designers, and
home owners who have come to expect A\V technologies to be hidden from view. Stealth has a no-compromise solution to
this problem with its award winning LineaResponseX family of completely invisible speakers.
Stealth's invisible speakers are designed with home theater in mind. Utilizing its patented FidelityGlass Advanced™
technology in combination with directly coupled mid/high tweeters, and real cone woofer bass stage, the speakers have a
smooth, articulate response - all from a totally invisible speaker solution. In addition, the speakers feature a nearly hemispherical
sound field insuring a surround speaker system that sounds spectacular in all directions: X, Y and Z.
LineaResponse speakers simultaneously achieve maximum aesthetic and audio performance. The broad dispersion
pattern eliminates typical on-axis "beaming" found in traditional speakers while the completely invisible nature of the speaker
eliminates the need to visually align unsightly speaker grills within an architectural space. These features combine to give
LineaResponse speakers an unprecedented flexibility for home theater installations.
Home theater surround sound systems benefit from Stealth Acoustics speakers in three ways:
1. A diffuse sound field with wide coverage angles. Stealth speakers offer a wide coverage angle which minimizes
the "flashlight" effect of traditional speakers, especially when ceiling mounted. Wider coverage means off-axis listeners
hear the same full range sound as on-axis listeners resulting in a fully immersive experience from any seat.
2. Directional information that is cogent throughout the coverage area. Stealth speakers not only have broader
coverage than traditional speakers, but within the coverage area offer a more sonically consistent experience which leads
to bigger panoramas and better spatial cues for more seats. Traditional speakers change their sonic qualities quite a bit
from different listening angles which can confuse spatial location details and response blend relative to listening angle.
3. The ability to be set to "large". Traditionally LFE "low-frequency effects" are sent to the subwoofer channels such as
Stealth's completely invisible B30g subwoofer system. And, because the LRX-85 is a more capable surround speaker
it can also carry lower program material which means more the surround audio system can be tuned more easly and
achieve a more realistic experience. Comparable in-wall surround speakers would require larger device and thus a
larger visible speaker grill to achieve the same bass extension. Stealth invisible speakers allow for extended bass
without any visual impact.
Stealth has a full family of invisible speakers to create great sounding ATMOS home theater systems, all without impacting
the visual environment. Stealth speakers are perfect for the "Z".
