Current Audio Announces Availability of FIT Speakers with FastLoc Grills (3/6/2010)

Current Audio LLC, today announced that its much anticipated, in-ceiling FIT™ with FastLoc™ speaker line is officially shipping worldwide.

The FastLoc grill is a patent-pending feature provided only by Current Audio. The design has allowed for the smallest exposed plastic bezel in the industry, which snaps into place and is rendered virtually invisible. The mechanism allows for quick installation and grill removal while also ensuring a secure fastening into several types of mounting surfaces. The unique grill design conforms to uneven surfaces including popcorn, heavy textured ceilings and uneven ceilings. FastLoc grills are made with corrosion and rust- resistant aluminum.

“With the release of this product, Current Audio is fixing a problem that has always plagued the architectural audio industry,” said Sean McDermott, president. “Grills are the largest nemesis to the installer, at times taking 30 minutes to install a pair. We at Current Audio are very excited to finally get this much-anticipated product into the hands of our customers. May the timesaving begin!”

FastLoc grills take about 10 seconds to twist into place. They allow for easy access to the speaker for quick, custom positioning. Ease-of-use is a key design requirement in all Current Audio products, which reinforces the company’s mantra; “We are installers building products for installers.
