SpeakerCraft Launches New 3-inch In-Ceiling Speaker

Flangeless Speaker to Mimic Small Can Lights [The following is a release from SpeakerCraft]

October 7, 2008

SpeakerCraft, America's original manufacturer of in-wall speakers is pleased to announce the launch of an ultra-small speaker designed to mimic the look of a miniature can light. The NEAT 3 will almost disappear into the ceiling having a minimal footprint and no exterior bezel. "Looking at the popularity of small flush-mounted spotlights inspired us to design a loudspeaker to match," says Jeremy Burkhardt, SpeakerCraft's outspoken CEO. "We know that homeowners prefer speakers that are less conspicuous and the NEAT 3 is just that." Featuring a 3-inch full-range driver, this speaker can be installed in almost any location. It's diminiutive size dramatically increases its application flexibility and should prove to be a popular solution in many installations. Due to the size of the drivers a subwoofer is recommended. Either the SpeakerCraft BassX series or the new in-wall Cinema Subs would be excellent choices. Sharing the same installation process as the rest of the NEAT series, the NEAT 3 uses a two-piece bracket that snaps together inside the wall and is secured with drywall screws through the wall's surface. Mudding up to the bracket provides a clean edge that, after finished paint, leaves only the grill exposed.
