Overview
Absolute best sonic performance at all price points
• Designed using state-of-the-art computer modeling software to vastly improve magnetic field and suspension linearity for consistent sonic performance at any SPL for best-in-class performance
• Pivoting woofer, midrange, and tweeter for improved frequency response in off-axis installations
Latest high-tech driver and tweeter material technology
• Improved low frequency performance
• Improved driver cone materials
• Low diffraction woofer, and midrange tweeter design
• Pivoting drivers for improved frequency response in off-axis installations
• Chambered midrange and tweeter design on all models
The Chambered tweeter design does the following
• Lowers the resonance frequency of the tweeter
• Allows for a lower crossover frequency to the woofer
• Reduces the back pressure on the tweeter dome
• Reduces the distortion of the tweeter near the crossover frequency
Easier to install
• Easier to access Roto-Lock® screws
• Removed metal hang tabs
• One-piece paintable grille with peel and stick scrim cloth for easier painting
• Two piece toggle feet allows installation with double dry wall and thicker ceiling and wall materials
Square adapter w/ grille can turn any round speaker into a square speaker (VP8SQ) - Sold Separately
• Allows easy alignment of the square grille with other ceiling features
