Atlantic Technology Heats Up A Hot Category This Summer With Nine New All Weather Speakers

Integrators Can Conquer the Great Outdoors with a Comprehensive Set of New Constant Current, Constant Voltage and Active Wireless Speaker Options

July 13, 2020

Atlantic Technology continues to roll out a major expansion of custom install products for consumer and commercial applications in 2020 that now includes extensive new designs with advanced drivers and wireless technology in a versatile line of all-weather indoor/outdoor speakers just in time for a big season of outdoor entertainment. The 100 series models are shipping now with the 300 series shipping in August and the 200 series in September. The nine new two-way models come in three series, are sold in pairs with options of three woofer sizes and two colors; - Constant Current Series: 4 ohm speakers for installations where standard amplification is desired. - Constant Voltage Series: Externally switchable with a 4 Ohm setting plus three impedance/wattage settings with the built-in audiophile grade transformer making them ideal for larger 70/100 volt home and commercial applications where long distances and many speakers are required. - Wireless Series: Active AC powered speakers featuring superior SKAA™ wireless technology for applications where running signal cable is problematic or installation flexibility and transportability is needed. It’s fast and easy to extend music playback from any audio source outdoors with these new speakers receiving long-range broadcasts of reliable Hi-Fi SKAA audio from any of Atlantic’s extensive line of tiny affordable SKAA transmitters, amps and indoor speaker systems. Each pair comes with a handy remote control and a free “.cmd” app for iOS, Android™, Windows and MAC OS X to manage multi-room transmitter/speaker control. It can be downloaded for free from the SKAA website https://skaa.com/tlc/skaa-cmd/ All speakers use sealed UV, impact resistant cabinets made with heavily reinforced acoustically-inert mineral-filled polypropylene that’s environmentally-resistant plus far more neutral and less “ringy” than typical outdoor speakers to deliver an amazingly musical sound. Each series features a 1-inch ferrofluid-cooled titanium tweeter with a powerful neodymium magnet to produce extended high-frequencies beyond audibility. A 12 dB/octave crossover delivers a smooth response and high, 90 dB efficiency mating with new woofers in either, 4-inch, 5.5-inch or 6.5-inch sizes. The woofers feature super-stiff lightweight mineral homopolymer loaded fiberglass cones to deliver tight articulate deep bass and a clear mid-range creating a directed sound field with the tweeter. Available in black or white, the paintable speakers feature aluminum power-coated grilles, one-handed easy install adjustable mounting brackets with passive models featuring spring-loaded gold-plated speaker terminals with posts designed for 16 gauge or larger cables. “Outdoor entertainment is bigger than ever and it’s the perfect time for integrators to step-up and offer their clients the diverse, flexible installation options this extensive new line of great sounding, high-quality all-weather speakers offer,” says Paul Fredrickson, Business Development Director at Muto Communications, Atlantic Technology’s PR and business development agency-of-record. “Atlantic Technology is really showing their capabilities in 2020 by successfully expanding across multiple product lines rapidly adding new profit opportunities for their business partners.” Specifications and MSRP Pricing Per Pair Constant Current Series AW-SD100 4-inch woofer, 1-inch tweeter, 4?, 10-75 Watts, 65 Hz-20 kHz ± 2dB $299 AW-SD200 5.5-inch woofer, 1-inch tweeter, 4?, 10-100 Watts, 50 Hz-20 kHz ± 2dB $349 AW-SD300 6.5-inch woofer, 1-inch tweeter, 4?, 10-120 Watts, 45 Hz-20 kHz ± 2dB $399 Constant Voltage Series AW-TR100 4-inch woofer, 1-inch tweeter, 4?, 900?
