The Stealth Acoustics model LRX-83 is a three-way, full-range loudspeaker system that becomes completely invisible after installation. The loudspeaker has a rigid frame that attaches directly to standard structural framing. The paintable diaphragm speaker front is bonded to the frame of the speaker, creating an active area surrounded by a stable mounting area. Installation instructions are shown on a paper overlay that is to be removed before installation. The overlay can also be used as a cutting template for retrofitting the speakers into existing wallboard. The LRX-83 may be installed in either the wall or ceiling and on-site finishing options include latex paint, light wallpaper, fabrics and selected texture coats. There is no need for nonstandard wallboard finishing materials. Advanced finishing methods such as veneer treatments or heavy plaster applications may be supported using special techniques - call Stealth for details.
The Stealth Acoustics LRX-83 incorporates an acoustically coupled high quality, low profile, high-power 8" cone woofer, a 30 mm direct coupled neo-magnet mid-range driver and a direct coupled 25 mm neo-magnet highfrequency driver. Advanced internal materials allow for smooth frequency extension to 20 kHz. When the LRX-83 is installed in the recommended enclosure size, frequency response below 40 Hz can be achieved. The LRX-83 contains two independent protection circuits (high/midfrequency and low-frequency sections) that automatically reset upon reduction of excessive amplifier power.
For proper registration, each speaker must be installed so that the surface of the perimeter edge is flush with the adjoining wallboard. When correctly in place, the surface of the speaker face panel extends above the height of the wallboard by 1/16" (1.5 mm). This is done to allow space for the tape and joint compound needed to blend the panel into the wall. Shims are included to allow for mounting in wallboard thicker than ½" (13 mm) or for fine adjustment.
Stealth Acoustics’ invisibility offers a powerful advantage over traditional loudspeakers because they can be placed wherever they sound best, free of visual concerns that may conflict with architectural features. Accompanying the full range panels, Stealth Acoustics offers the B30g – completely invisible companion subwoofer for extended low frequency response.
The LRX-83 also has 100, 70 and 25 volt constant voltage transformers available as factory installed options. All Stealth Acoustics speakers are covered by a 17 year manufacturer’s warranty.
