Atlantic Technology InWall Theater Systems
What's your goal?
If you're reading this we'll bet one of your main goals is to
have the least obtrusive high performance sound system
possible. In-wall speaker buyers are usually just as
concerned about how the equipment fits into their home
as they are about performance. Rest assured that our goals
are the same as yours. You see, we've been high
performance sound fanatics since the earliest days of home
HiFi. Since we founded Atlantic Technology over ten years
ago we've established an enviable reputation for making
value packed leading edge home theater and music
systems. Our prime goal then, in creating the InWall
Theater System™ speakers was to deliver the same level
of performance and value in a practically invisible format.
Do we use magic?
When most companies design in wall speakers their
priorities usually start with the speakers being unobtrusive
and easy to mount. Sound quality is generally pretty far
back in importance. But since we're obsessed with accurate
sound, we spent months adapting components from our
highly regarded System 270 and System 370 to create a
speaker that sounds every bit as good as it looks.
Using no-compromise components is only the first art of
the job. There are special considerations that must be
addressed wehn desiging in-wall speakers. Whereas box
speakers can be moved away from the negative influences
walls have on sound, in-wall speakers obviously can't. So
our design process involved many more hours of computer
design, testing, and listening sessions to develop ways of
compensating for the surrounding wall's effects on the
sound. One listen to the System 10 compared to other inwall designs will prove the success of our efforts.

Theater Systems
We developed the System 10 speaker to integrate
beautifully with our in-wall surround speakers and
subwoofers. Essentially then, it forms the heart of a music
and cinema sound system that's amazingly lifelike and yet
disappears into the decor of your home.
Creating your custom system.
Until a high performance InWall subwoofer comes along
we strongly recommend an external sub for truly gratifying
performance. After all, why spend the time, money, and
effort only to ultimately compromise the results? The
amount of "woof" that you need really depends upon the
size of your room and your performance expectations.
Generally however, the System 10 mates well with our 172
PBM or 272 PBM, both of which deliver powerful, articulate
bass ideal for music and special effects.
Get lost!
The goal of home theater is to place you in the movie, not
the movie theater. And the surround speakers are critical
to creating this virtual environment. We believe Dipole
surrounds work best because they produce a diffuse and
believable soundfield. We're also aware that some people
prefer direct radiating surround speakers. Consult with your
installation expert, and then choose between our in-wall/
on-wall recessable Frequency Enhanced Dipole surrounds
or you may use the System 10 speaker "all 'round".
Whether used in pairs for fine music reproduction or in a
multichannel system, the Atlantic Technology System 10
speaker delivers the accurate, low distortion sound necessary
for reproducing today's latest digital sources. Yet once it's
installed it's really no more obtrusive than a light switch. Enjoy!
