Edge 3i
Building on the award-winning Edge Series design, Edge3i is a plaster up-to loudspeaker that provides high performance at an entry level price point. Packaged into a smaller footprint, the Edge3i uses the same rigid metal frame and tapered perimeter glass resin soundboard that create the warm, immersive sound the Edge series is known for. The Edge3i now also features the ‘i’ update, providing significant acoustic upgrades with new proprietary high frequency transducers and ToneRelief® panel technology.
Product Description
First launched in 2017, the award-winning high-sensitivity Edge series of plaster-up-to invisible loudspeakers have become synonymous with low frequency impact and a truly engaging listening experience. The ‘i’ update provides significant acoustic upgrades with the introduction of brand new proprietry high frequency transducers. Packaged into a smaller footprint and using the same tapered perimeter glass resin core as the larger Edge5i and Edge7i loudspeakers, the Edge3i provides exceptional performance at a costefficient price point. Designed for installation into dryline walls and ceilings as well as a retrofit into plaster finished surfaces.
Example Applications
Medium-power residential/commercial distributed audio solutions and multichannel surround sound systems when used with a subwoofer. Designed to be installed into dryline walls & ceilings, but may also be used as a post-plaster retrofit in applications with a plaster skim coat. Can be supplied with highimpedance 100/70V transformer.
Frequency Response
The Backbox CV300 creates an acoustically tuned and consistent cavity behind the speaker, helping to ensure both consistent audio quality as well as minimising rearward airborne sound transmission.
All new slim-line design, giving reliable speaker protection for life-time worry free performance, in a unit that can be conveniently dressed back with any cable management system or sit neatly behind the rack. Please note that Edge speakers require the ‘C’ variant single channel protection unit – for example for Edge3, use APUi30C.
Both 8-channel and 16-channel passive rack-mounted protection units are available for Edge Series Loudspeakers. For use in installations with higher numbers of low-impedance speakers with a centralised AV rack. Direct-to-PCB screw terminal-blocks allow for fast and easy permanent installation. Please note that Edge speakers require the ‘C’ variant of protection unit, for example APU-RS16iC.
