NHT iC4-ARC In-Ceiling Speaker, each

NHT iC4-ARC In-Ceiling Speaker, MSRP: $600/each

The iC4-ARC is NHT’s super-premium 8″ woofer in-ceiling speaker. Apart from the 8″ woofer, it is exactly the same as the iC3-ARC.

Sold as single units rather than speaker pairs, iC4-ARC in-ceiling speakers are ideally used in premium home theaters and certainly in concert with NHT’s premium Classic Line of in-room speakers. iC4-ARCs can also be used in any situation where the very best sound reproduction is desired with almost no physical presence in the room. Weather and moisture resistant materials make the iC4-ARC suitable for outdoor eves, covered patios, and master bathrooms as well. Like all the products in the Architect In Ceiling series, the iC4-ARC features NHT’s new micro-perforated, bezel-less grill that attaches magnetically and reduces the installed footprint by almost 15% over its predecessor.

Don’t forget the companion iCB8 pre-construction bracket (sold individually). Note: this bracket IS NOT used for retrofit application (existing structures).

Features:

• Unique Tri-tweeter array for impressive, room-filling sound
• NHT’s new micro-perforated, bezel-less grill attaches magnetically and provides a clean look
• Remarkable new Anti-Resonant Casting or ARC “monocoque” chassis for improved performance
• The ultimate in-ceiling choice for both distributed audio and home theater applications
• Packaged, sold and shipped individually.

The iC4-ARC in-ceiling speaker technologies include the premium anodized aluminum version NHT’s proprietary 3-tweeter array to deliver the widest, sound field currently available from any ceiling mount speaker. This patented array is nested in the center of a custom designed, long-throw, high-power, 8” aluminum-cone woofer. These components are then assembled into the remarkable new Anti-Resonant Casting or ARC “monocoque” chassis and 3-tweeter array sub-assembly to provide unprecedented strength and a lifetime of durability while acoustically reducing frame vibrations – “distortions” – to inaudible levels. Just before we install the speaker components, a smooth rubberized paint finish process is applied to the chassis that works together with ARC to help damp surface vibrations that can blur the sound.
