It is a well-known fact that LED Walls represent a significant challenge regarding placement of speakers that can deliver a commensurate level, most notably the critical center channel.

In reviewing what was offered by various companies, everything from reflecting some of the frequencies off the Wall, or use of combination line source and point source, or small speakers incapable of adequate performance and SPL, each of these approaches suffered from engineering problems – they were primarily marketing efforts.

For two years ASCENDO worked on the development of this unique and scalable speaker design based on our beliefs that:

• Only point source speakers can deliver the desired seat-to-seat performance consistency in multi-seat home theater environments,
• Only a direct-radiating system will deliver the highest-performance results,
• The design should be as invisible as possible to keep the focus on the LED Wall

The revolutionary part is the AMT-driven waveguide with asymmetrical horizontal and vertical sound dispersion and HF dispersion lens. As a flush mount in-ceiling design, it disappears and integrates beautifully not only in a home theater, but also in multipurpose media or living room applications. TheDIRECTOR’s performance is scalable and can exceed 130dB SPL with ease when desired.

Furthermore, even in smaller rooms with relatively high ceilings, the sound must be perceived as coming from the vertical center of the Wall – without exception.
