Know before you buy
Yes, the micro-trim grilles are designed to be painted. They feature a simple, paintable surface that allows them to blend seamlessly into your wall for a discreet, custom look.
The pivoting drivers allow you to aim the sound directly toward your primary listening area. This flexibility is particularly useful for optimizing stereo imaging and soundstage in rooms where speaker placement is constrained by wall studs or furniture.
Absolutely. With their high-fidelity carbon fiber woofers and silk dome tweeters, these speakers provide the clarity and detail needed for immersive home theater audio. They work well as front, center, or surround channels.
The magnetic attachment makes installation and maintenance much easier. It eliminates the need for screws or clips, allowing you to snap the grille into place for a clean, flush finish that is also simple to remove if you ever need to access the speaker.
These speakers are designed for standard in-wall installation using the included mounting system. However, they are compatible with Sonance Original Series Large speaker accessories, which can be useful if you are installing them in new construction or require specific back-box enclosures.
