About the Speakercraft AIM 7 DT Three Series 2

Eric A.

Stereo sound from a single in-ceiling speaker

The Speakercraft AIM 7 DT Three Series 2 (or AIM273DT, for short) reproduces both the left and right channels of your music sources with a single speaker, and its unique design gives you tons of installation flexibility. Its ARC Tweeter Array includes four aluminum tweeters — one pair devoted to the left channel, another devoted to the right channel. The speaker also handles a muscular 125 watts and delivers low-end response down to 45 Hz. It's an excellent option for rooms that are too narrow or oddly shaped for a conventional pair of in-ceiling speakers.
The aluminum tweeters in the AIM273DT are paired for left/right stereo sound reproduction.

Aim sound where you need it most

It's called the AIM273DT for a reason — this speaker lets you aim sound where you need it. The 7" aluminum woofer tilts up to 15 degrees each way, and each of the four 5/8" aluminum tweeters built into the ARC Tweeter Array can rotate and tilt. That means you can mount the speaker where it looks best, or where it has proper support, and then direct the sound waves toward your favorite listening spot. WavePlane™ technology helps further focus high-frequency sound dispersion, providing maximum clarity.

Features

Stereo In-Ceiling: This SpeakerCraft in-ceiling speaker uses one pair of tweeters to reproduce left channel sound and another pair of tweeters to reproduce right channel, for stereo music from a single speaker.

ARC Tweeter Array: By incorporating four 0.625" aluminum/magnesium dome tweeters in a line array, the AIM Series 2 in-ceiling speaker delivers focused high frequencies farther into the listening area than standard tweeter configurations. The ARC Tweeter Array lowers the crossover point to increase the sound pressure level at the critical mid-range frequencies so that acoustically, listeners enjoy a much larger sweet spot.

WavePlane Technology: Complementing the ARC Tweeter Array is SpeakerCraft's updated WavePlane technology that acts as an acoustic lens, focusing the high frequency audio energy into the listening environment for a cleaner, wider, and richer sound. Ordinary speakers only sound their best when you are directly underneath them, but the WavePlane assures optimal high frequency dispersion throughout the listening area.

7" Woofer: The SpeakerCraft in-ceiling speaker houses a 7" Kevlar cone woofer with a butyl elastomer surround for midrange and midbass frequencies.

Aim-Ability: The enhanced aim-ability of the AIM Series 2 in-ceiling speaker provides flexibility for installation in home theater and whole home audio applications, so you can aim the sound exactly where you want it. The speaker housing design allows for a +/-15° pivoting woofer, totaling 30° of adjustment. Once the woofer is positioned, you can pivot and rotate the ARC Tweeter Array and WavePlane to further adjust the direction of the sound into the room toward the listening area. The ARC Tweeter Array and WavePlane rotate as one unit up to 359°. You may also further pivot the ARC Tweeter Array an additional 12°.

Vortex Eliminators: The AIM 2 in-ceiling speaker's Vortex Eliminators disperse sound as it reaches the outer edge of the speaker baffle. Acoustically, this moves the speaker closer to the surface of the ceiling, improving the overall dispersion of sound and eliminating any tunnel effect found in ordinary ceiling speakers.

Speaker Terminals: The SpeakerCraft in-ceiling speaker is fitted with twos sets of spring-post speaker terminals that will accommodate bare wire (up to 12AWG), pin-connectors, and banana plugs (single or dual).

Paintable Grille: The in-ceiling speaker comes with a perforated metal grill finished in white. It can be painted to match the color of your ceiling.

In-Ceiling Installation: Its round shape and low-profile speaker grille allow the AIM Series 2 in-ceiling speaker to mimic the look of a recessed lighting fixture. The speaker requires a cutout of 8.4375" and a mounting depth of 5.5". The speaker frame has a diameter of 9.625". Once the hole is cut, the speaker can be dropped in and the rotating cams can be tightened, allowing you to secure the speaker to the drywall without any extra assembly.
