Floating grille audiophile speaker system
Product Description
Behind the elegant floating grille is a speaker

used in all Bay Audio cabinet speakers. The
JAM In-Wall Subwoofer fits into a standard
stud bay and provides deep, articulate bass.
The subwoofer is powered by an outboard
rack-mountable amplifier.
2-Channel Systems
Use the JAM In-Wall Subwoofer in full-range
2-channel systems with the JMi, or JTi float-
ing grille in-wall speakers.
Theater Systems
Use multiple JAM In-Wall Subwoofers in
built-in theaters.

Frame
Our anodized aluminum frame
holds the speaker system rigidly
in the wall, reducing vibrations
which cause distortion.
Grille
Our custom–perforated grille
floats in front of the speaker,
covering all hardware. It can be
painted to match your walls.
On-Board Tuning
Electronic Pi Space tuning balances bass response throughout
the room.
Speaker Baffle
We use a 11⁄4" medite baffle to
isolate the speaker system from
the wall. You’ll hear deeper, more
articulate bass.
Drivers
Dual custom-built 8" bass units
are shallow enough to fit into a
standard stud bay, yet provide
plenty of controlled output.
Installation
No back box is required for the
JAM In-Wall Subwoofer, so you
can mount it in existing walls.
By methodically measuring the effects of room
size, building materials, furnishings, and
speaker placement on music reproduction,
we create products that sound great in any
room of your home. We’re pioneers in this
field—the first, and we believe, only speaker
company to focus entirely on designing speakers mindful of the interaction of placement on
room acoustics.
Only Bay Audio has on–board filters to optimize the speaker for its intended placement.
Room Modes
Reproducing balanced bass is perhaps the
trickiest task an installer faces. Bass frequen-
cies are affected by the size and shape of your

listening area, where you place the speaker,
and where you sit to listen. Every room creates
pockets of strong bass (usually along the walls
and in corners), and pockets where the bass
seems non-existent (unfortunately, usually at
the listening position). The electronically tun-
able JAM In-Wall Subwoofer overcomes this
problem when used in pairs. They “scatter”
these pockets for natural, tight bass response
throughout the room.
Mounting Options
The 500w PowerPack comes with
a rack mount kit (two rack
spaces). Our digital design runs
cool, so no external fans are necessary.

Design

amplifier is a unique class A/B
digital design for smooth output
with low heat production.
