Genelec’s new AIW26 Active In-wall
speaker system consists of a bass reflex
type two-way speaker and a matched
remote amplifier module RAM1. It has
been designed to the same rigorous stan-
dards as Genelec’s high-performance HT
series active Home Theater loudspeakers.
No other in-wall loudspeaker can match
the low distortion, incredible neutrality
and high sound pressure capability of
Genelec AIW26. The AIW26 can be used
in the most demanding applications, like
the main L-C-R array of a Home Theater
system, critical Stereo listening or rear/
side channels of a large, state-of-the-art
Home Theater.
The AIW26 speaker has a 7” bass driver
loaded with a 8 liter bass reflex cabinet
and a
3
/
4
” treble driver with a proprietary
Directivity Control Waveguide
TM
(DCW
TM
)
giving a precise and uncolored acoustic
response. The RAM1 remote amplifier
module includes active crossover circuitry
and 120 and 120 W power amplifiers for
the bass and treble driver respectively.
RCA and balanced XLR line level input
connectors and adjustable input sensitiv-
ity ensure convenient connection to all
types of decoders. Connectors for remote
power/standby mode switching are also
provided. The active crossover unit allows
accurate Bass Tilt, Bass Roll-Off and
Treble Tilt adjustments for fine-tuning the
sound balance to suit various acoustical
conditions and listener tastes.
The solid, carefully dimensioned bass
reflex cabinet gives far better control of
bass reproduction than typical in-wall
speakers. The speaker fits into a standard
2 x 4” wall structure and can easily be
retrofitted to existing construction. The
visible parts of the speaker (grill insert
and grill frame) can be painted to match
the wall colour.
The RAM1 amplifier module can be
rack mounted with its dedicated RM1
Rack Mount Kit (optional) or placed on a
shelf or into a cabinet. The wiring between
the amplifier module and speaker can be
made of standard 14 or 12 gauge 4-con-
ductor wire. Expensive proprietary cables
are not needed. Each speaker/amplifier
combination has been carefully tested
and matched together before delivery for
maximum accuracy.
