Atlantic Technology Expands In-Ceiling Speaker Line-up with New Home Theater and Trim-Look Music Models



By Gary Reber


Atlantic Technology, a highly-regarded manufacturer of loudspeakers and custom installation solutions, has introduced five new stealthy ceiling mounted loudspeakers for home theater and whole house distributed audio.

The Atlantic Technology ICTS-6HT is an in-ceiling home theater speaker designed for use as the front left, center and right channels of a home theater system. The 6-1/2-inch polypropylene woofer is mounted at a 15 degree angle so in can direct midrange and vocals toward the listener for improved imaging and intelligibility. To further enhance imaging, the tweeter can be pivoted up to 30 degrees so the full frequency range of the front channels remains perfectly focused. The speakers have built-in tweeter level controls and a woofer-level/boundary compensation adjustment.  

Atlantic Technology is also introducing four new Trim-Look Ceiling speakers with thin magnetically attached grilles that are nearly invisible to the casual observer. These highly efficient speakers offer exceptional sound quality for music and home theater applications. The top two models, TLC-6.3 and TLC-8.3, are Tri-Mode™ speakers with dual-voice-coil woofers and two pivoting tweeters. They have

separate left- and right-channel input terminals, input jumpers and a built-in bipole/dipole switch. These allow the speaker to be used for mono, single-point stereo, or as a surround speaker. The two base models, TLC-6.2 and TLC-8.2, are conventional, single-channel 6-1/2- and 8-inch two-way speakers with 1-inch soft dome tweeters that can pivot 30 degrees for optimal imaging.

The Atlantic Technology ICTS-6HT In-Ceiling Theater Speaker are now available with a suggested retail price of $400 each.  The Trim-Look Ceiling Speakers are also shipping the last week of March. The Tri-Mode models TLC-6.3 and TLC-8.3 will have suggested retail prices of $325 and $450 respectively, while the two-way TLC-6.2 and TLC-8.2, will have suggested retail prices of $250 and $325 respectively.
