Habitech is officially adding the Sonance Professional Series speakers to its distribution portfolio. The range consists of 70V/100V/8ohm selectable in-ceiling, pendant and surface mount speakers sharing consistent design and voicing.
Sonance’s engineering team has worked tirelessly on this range of speakers, with the company promising extremely low distortion, wide dispersion and the reliability consumers and installers demand.
The Pro Series in-ceiling, pendant and surface mount models are available in a mix of 4in, 6.5in, 8in two-way configurations, supported by 8in woofer models. They feature a custom-made full-fidelity transformer that promises good 70V/100V performance. Installers will also find a convenient front-mounted tap selector for easy adjustment.
The range is offered in paintable black or white finishes, with discreet one-piece bezel-less grilles (in-ceiling/pendant).
Pendant
The slim pendant speakers utilise a minimal design similar to pendant lighting. Their integrated top cover hides the hanging hardware and wiring connector for a clean finish, and they’re supplied with hanging kits that include two 15in stainless steel suspension cables with snap hook, and two Gripple hangers to ensure a safe and secure installation.
In-ceiling
The in-ceiling models offer an optional square grille in black or white, which allows the speakers to match the aesthetic of square downlights and HVAC grilles for a tidy in-ceiling look. A sealed metal back-box promises high audio quality, while incorporating secure cable/conduit clamping and a swing-door connector cover for easier installation.
Surface-mount
The surface-mount speakers feature Sonance’s Fast-Mount bracket and front cable connection to speed up the installation process while preserving a sleek, minimal wall profile on inside or outside surfaces. Their high-impact all-weather construction and powder coated flush-fitting aluminium grille combine ensure durability.
EASE Address software
Fine-tuning the coverage for any space is made routine with EASE Address software now pre-loaded with all Pro Series models. Simply import the floor plan, define zones and dimensions, select the speakers and power, and the software will generate a SPL heat map of the space which can be adjusted for ideal results. EASE address links are available from the Habitech or Sonance sites.
Commenting on the launch Habitech managing director, Jonathan Pengilley, notes: “The Sonance Pro Series delivers a quality standard far in advance of typical systems across a complete product line of in-ceiling, pendant and surface mounted speaker designs. It offers integrators a peerless mix of durability, design versatility and audio performance, custom engineered for the luxury hospitality market.”
The Sonance Professional Series is backed by Habitech’s regular hands-on training, readily available stock, industry-leading pre- and post-sales support and system specification.
