Russound’s Acclaim 5 Series redefi nes affordable
performance in architectural loudspeakers. Featuring
advanced design and materials such as polypropylene,
Kevlar, aluminum and silk, the Acclaim 5 Series is
engineered to deliver accurate sound with quality and value.
Our engineers used state-of-the-art FEA modeling and
analysis to design the new Acclaim 5 Series line. While
many other speakers in the market use commonly available
injection molded poly cones, Russound specifi ed lighter,
stiffer drivers featuring either a structural rib design, or
enhanced materials. The result is improved effi ciency,
enhanced bass performance and greater musical detail
through better transient response.
In addition to providing superb sound, Acclaim 5 Series
speakers are offered in in-wall, in-ceiling, and in-ceiling single
point stereo formats. They are also available in standard
5.25”, 6.5” and 8” sizes, allowing you to mix, match or
upgrade at a later time. Tuned for improved off-axis listening
and equipped with pivoting tweeters, the Acclaim 5 Series
line is at home in any architectural installation.
For quality and performance, Acclaim 5 Series speakers
provide an excellent alternative to more expensive speakers
without compromise to aesthetics or effi ciency.

Advanced FEA modeling
was employed to optimize
magnetic fi elds in speaker
drivers for improved linear
cone travel and reduced
distortion.
Russound’s Acclaim 5 Series
speakers use a unique
surround for mounting
titanium tweeters to prevent
the harsh peaks (of up
to 10 dB) caused by the
natural resonance of titanium
experienced in architectural
speakers manufactured by
our competition.
