AMC 730

IN-WALL VERSION OF OUR ACCLAIMED K7
PERFECT FOR MUSIC, AND 5.1 HOME THEATER

The AMC730 is Snell’s K7 monitor, re-engineered for flush-mount use. As you
would expect, many of the features developed by Snell over the past 30 years,
are in full use. To achieve the performance capabilities of a freestanding
monitor, this new design overcomes the three factors limiting all in-wall
speakers. First, to insure predictable response, regardless of placement or wall
type, the AMC730 has been designed with an integrated and sealed,
aluminum enclosure, which, like all conventional loudspeakers, determines
the speaker’s bass response. Second, superior materials are used in the
AMC730 to control resonance. Where other in-walls are open-backed and
made of plastic, we mount our K7 drivers to a specially damped MDF baffle,
constructed in three layers to enhance bass/midrange clarity and deaden wall
resonance. The baffle secures to a well damped, heavy gauge aluminum
enclosure. Third, most flush mount speakers can not reproduce a proper
soundstage. To assure the spacial realism found only in high-performance
monitors, the AMC730’s low-resonance, silk dome tweeter has incredible
dispersion, well into the voice range. For enhanced performance a new cross­over was designed to “tune” the AMC730 to its in-wall boundary, and uniquely
extend bass in a small volume cabinet. The precision crossover is hand tuned to

guarantee performance to within a remarkable 0.5dB of the Reference Master.
