Leviton has unveiled five new speaker options from the Architectural Edition Powered by JBL series.
Two of these new speaker offerings are specifically designed for professional installation, and can be paired with a Leviton Hi-Fi 2 distributed audio system. The LAE5I, a new Dual 5.25in. two-way in-wall center channel loudspeaker, has nearly invisible zero-bezel magnetic grilles, snap-on wings for installation, and can be used as a low-profile installed center channel speaker or as an extreme performance left/right speaker in a no compromise, home theater system. The LAEAW is Leviton’s new Indoor/Outdoor All Weather Loudspeaker, featuring gold-plated binding posts that are ideal for outdoor, utility, commercial, indoor pool, atrium, and other large space applications.
Leviton is also introducing three easy-to-install, stand-alone home theater-style solutions for the distribution marketplace. The LAESB Soundbar with wireless subwoofer and Bluetooth technology is designed to perfectly match any flat-panel television and connects wirelessly to its compact, powerful subwoofer with a single cable to a television. The LAE5S is a free-standing (non-installed) Dual 5.5in. two-way shelf-mount center channel loudspeaker, which is ideal for applications where an installed speaker is not practical. An example of this would be a large home theater system where an in-wall speaker would be blocked or wall construction might not permit an installation. Lastly, the LAESW is a new free-standing (non-installed), powered subwoofer which offers the signature punch and accuracy of a JBL bass with a sophisticated and modern look that can be used to reinforce the performance of in-wall and in-ceiling installed speaker systems.
The Leviton Architectural Edition Powered by JBL series speakers are now available in several versions including in-ceiling, in-wall, outdoor, and home theater and are sold exclusively by Leviton through distribution and professional installers.
