SONANCE ARCHITECTURAL SERIES
The In-Wall Speaker Breakthrough In 1982, Sonance cofounders Scott Struthers and Geoff Spencer asked their client to point to the precise spot on the kitchen wall where she’d like her speaker placed. And with a single swing of a hammer, shock waves went through the world of audio and architecture that reverberate to this day.
Sonance forever changed the relationship between architecture and audio Now speakers could be less obtrusive with no loss of acoustic precision. The placement of speakers could now be limitless, with both the walls and ceiling of any room in the home part of the blank canvas open to the architect and designer.
The inspiration of complimentary design That creative freedom, that power to see audio blending into architecture in new ways, is what Sonance has always offered the design community and its clients. Sonance has continued to innovate, creating solutions that designers, custom installers and design-sensitive audiophiles recognize as truly breakthrough.
Introducing Sonance Architectural Series™ The First Truly Flush-mount, Trimless Speakers The Sonance Architectural Series extends your design vision by bringing form and function into balance. And the quality of the audio lives up to the character of the interior design. Through the nearly-hidden speaker grille comes the rich, smooth clarity of Sonance sound reproduction, filling the architectural space without betraying its source.
Mounted perfectly flush with the surface and finished with a paintable cloth grille, Sonance Architectural Series speakers recede into subtle geometric forms.

Elegant Simplicity Interiors have become a design puzzle, a potential cacophony of shapes, shadows, angles and light fixtures. Sonance Architectural Series speakers are designed to help minimize clutter, their paintable, micro-perforated metal or paintable cloth grilles blending into their surroundings and sitting perfectly flush with the surface. A broad selection of shapes, sizes and finishes of Sonance Architectural Series speakers assures the best match with your vision of the space.
