[. . . ] And, it is the same consistent voice you hear no matter which Boston speakers you're listening to, or where. Designer in-wall and in-ceiling speakers: made to fit beautifully. Designed intelligently, for stunning sound. Designer speakers expand the realm of quality sound, to create a whole-house system that pleases even the most critical of ears. In fact, these speakers are every bit as exciting as our highly regarded reference speakers. That's because each cone, grille, and bevel facilitates incredible lifelike sound with minimum diffraction and maximum dispersion. [. . . ] Enter Boston's system of installed subwoofers. The beauty of this system is that it's just that: a system. The SA1 subwoofer amplifier is the foundation, and our installed subwoofers are the building blocks. Use them to put powerful bass into any environment. Two Subs are Better than One--Adding a second installed subwoofer to your SA1 amplifier adds 6dB more bass output. Another benefit of a dual subwoofer system needs a little more explanation: In any room, there are "standing waves" caused by bass energy reflecting off of the walls. Sometimes these standing waves create "null points, where less bass is heard. " By adding a second subwoofer and placing it asymmetrically to the first, you eliminate the null point because the null of one sub will almost never be the same as the null point of the other subwoofer. Four Subs are Better than Two--In the latest digital surround formats, bass information is recorded not just in the front channels, but also in the side and rear channels. You can enhance the impact of any Hidden Theater system, and the realism of the cinema experience, by adding rear and/or side channel subs. The installation versatility of the Boston installed subwoofers makes it easy to fit multiple subs into any room. A great choice for bass in a stealth installation. The VRiSub85 features the same trim and aluminum baffle as the VRi585 and VRi595, so it perfectly matches all Designer in-wall and in-ceiling speakers. For tight, clean bass the VRiSub85 utilizes two 8-inch, cast-basket DCDTM woofers. Plus the two separate housings mount easily into standard ceiling joists. A natural choice for bass in a stealth installation. The VRiSub82 features the same trim and aluminum baffle as the VRi593, so it perfectly matches all Designer in-wall and in-ceiling speakers. For tight, clean bass the VRiSub82 utilizes dual 8-inch, cast-basket DCD woofers. Plus, it mounts easily into a standard 2x4 wall. Installed, this system completely disappears; just a floor register is visible in the room. Turn it on, however, and with its 10-inch DCD woofer mounted in a vented enclosure, the Sub10F will rock the house to its very foundation. Highly versatile, the Sub10F can be mounted under a floor, behind a wall, or under a floor riser in a theater room.
