AMC 6030
AN IN-CEILING VERSION OF SNELL’S MOST SUCCESSFUL LCR
To achieve the performance capabilities of a freestanding monitor, the flush-mount
design used in the AMC 6030 overcomes three major factors that limited in-ceiling
speaker performance. First, to insure predictable response, regardless of placement
or construction type, the dual 5 1/4-inch woofers and low resonance tweeter are
placed inside a sealed, aluminum enclosure, which defines bass response, just like a
conventional loudspeaker’s enclosure, and reduces sound transfer through the ceil-
ing cavity to other rooms. Second, specific materials are used to control resonance.
The drivers are mounted to a well-braced and damped aluminum baffle, to enhance
bass/midrange clarity and deaden wall resonance. The baffle is then welded to the
well-damped, heavy gauge aluminum enclosure. Third, since flush mount speakers
fail to produce a proper soundstage, the driver plane steers energy from above the
ceiling line toward the listening area, at a 45-degree angle. The adjacent surfaces
are lined with sound deadening materials to prevent cabinet reflections from caus-
ing distortion. The result is open and clear sound that appears to be coming from
the front instead of overhead. These attributes combine for a music or theater
experience unheard of from an in-ceiling speaker. Designed by Snell’s chief engineer
Joe D’Appolito, the AMC 6030 shares drivers and crossover from Snell’s in-room
LCR7, in-wall AMC 830 and in-cabinet ICS 1030, re-engineered for the boundary
and placement of a ceiling mount enclosure. The benefit is a quartet of models that
can be mixed and matched to deliver the best music and theater experience possible
while blending in to any décor or room condition.
