Origin Acoustics Expands Its Director Collection With Two In-Ceiling Loudspeakers

New 10-inch speakers appear on the ceiling as if only containing a smaller 8-inch woofer.

Origin Acoustics has introduced two new models to its Director Collection of premium architectural loudspeakers — the D101 and D103DT. By utilizing Origin’s mounting system structure, these new 10-inch speakers appear on the ceiling as if only containing a smaller 8-inch woofer.

The larger woofer takes advantage of high ceilings and extended frequencies to produce more powerful lows. “Any ceiling over ten-feet can take advantage of these larger woofers,” says Nick Berry, CEO of Origin Acoustics.

The D101 is a two-way loudspeaker with a 1-inch silk-dome tweeter and 10-inch polypropylene/butyl-rubber woofer. The D103DT features a dual aluminum tweeter configuration, specifically for a stereo signal, and an injection-molded graphite woofer. Each locks securely into place using the same bayonet ring system and hides behind the micro-perforated magnetic grille used with the entire Director Collection series.

The new D101 an D103DT perform best in large areas such as patios or gyms, rooms with tall ceilings, and home-theater environments where high SPL performance is preferred.

The new speaker models are available now to qualified Origin Acoustics integration firms and dealers.
