Realistic
front imaging from ceiling mounted seaker
Remarkably, this in-ceiling speaker presents a perfect sonic image by positioning the midrange and tweeter
on an angled, cast aluminum baffle that faces down towards the listener. To maintain a compact footprint, the
woofer is offset behind the MT baffle but allowed to breath amply through a crescent-shaped vent. This 3-
way driver orientation provides directed-dispersion characteristics so that when the VRi595 is positioned
just forward of a video display, the sound seems to come from on-screen—making the VRi595 a perfect solu-
tion for front stage audio in a home theater system.
Flexible
placement —entire baffle
rotates
to direct sonic output
Because seating is not always finalized at the time of speaker installation, the entire VRi595 baffle rotates so
that the sound may be directed toward the listener to maintain proper sound stage. To further enhance
placement flexibility, the VRi595 incorporates Boston’s boundary compensation circuitry to allow placement
near sidewalls or corners.
When positioned near the rear or sidewall of a home theater room, the VRi595’s directed- dispersion char-
acteristics can be harnessed for use as a versatile surround speaker. Direct the sound towards the side or
rear of the seating position for direct-radiating surround—or into the side or rear wall to create a diffuse
sound field surround.
Unique
driver orientation:
3-way
array and performance from a 2-way footprint
Mounting in the same size cutout as Boston’s other 8-inch in-
ceiling speakers, the 3-way VRi595 uses a 1-inch aluminum
dome tweeter, a 31/2-inch cast neodymium midrange, and
an 8-inch cast DCD™ woofer.
