The IW 255 WCC is a premium grade Quiet Cone™wool/carbon in-wall center channel system designed to optimize high end multi channel systems. Turned 90 degrees it also makes an excellent main left and right channel system. Proprietary cast wool /carbon Quiet Cone™ woofers, and 1” neodym silk dome tweeter provide outstanding performance with superior dynamics and power bandwidth. Dialogue intelligibility, precise tonality and high power handling are much higher than any standard inwall speaker. A rugged 1” wide aluminum mounting frame (not plastic) is fastened to a massive ¾” thick MDF baffle. Source Tech proprietary inner support trestle bar assembly is comprised of ¾” thick rigid 13 ply birch and couples, via ¼” steel bolts, to provide a much higher level of rigidity and support. “Flexing”, common to standard plastic based inwalls, is a form of detrimental phase distortion caused by “moving panels”. This is eliminated in the IW 255 WC . A significant improvement in performance is realized because the front baffle/wall interface DOES NOT “move”. A minimum phase HQ crossover includes polypropylene capacitors and a customized level control that optimizes high frequency response for prevailing room acoustics.
