Cambridge SoundWorks Launches New In-Wall Speaker Line

Affordable, High Quality Sound That Melds Into Any Home

NEWTON, Mass., March 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Cambridge SoundWorks (CSW), maker of home stereo, home theater and multimedia speakers, today announced the launch of the Cambridge SoundWorks Ambiance® 52, 62, and 82 In-Wall speakers. The new Ambiance series offers consumers affordable, high quality sound that acoustically enhances any home without disrupting the decor. Prices range from $150 to $250 per pair.

Cambridge SoundWorks is a wholly owned subsidiary of Creative Techonology Ltd. (Nasdaq: CREAF), and sister company Hifi.com, an online destination for consumer electronics and home entertainment.

``With our selling direct to the consumer platform, we at Cambridge SoundWorks strive to bring superior quality sound at a great value to our customers.'' says Rob Mainiero, General Manager for CSW. ``With the introduction of our new Ambiance In-Wall series, we continue to enhance our product line to offer our customers multiple options to incorporate sound into their lives.''

Product Features

The new Ambiance models feature a 1-inch silk-dome tweeter, mounted in an ``eyeball'' mechanism, to help optimize stereo imaging and coverage. Each system also relies on a high quality, low-frequency driver (5-1/4-inch in the Ambiance 52; 6-1/2-inch and 8-inch in the Ambiance 62 and 82 respectively) that utilizes an environmentally stable, low-mass injection-molded cone and high-strength rubber surround within a mechanically stable, corrosion- resistant frame. A two-position tweeter-level switch allows owners to contour response according to room acoustics, speaker placement, or system use and individual preference. A solid-state, auto-resetting tweeter-protection circuit provides security against accidental overdrive or excess power.

Cambridge SoundWorks also incorporates high-quality crossover circuitry into all three new in-wall designs. Each features air-core inductors and film capacitors in its tweeter circuit to maximize definition and transient accuracy, and low-distortion laminated-core woofer inductors for midrange clarity and bass impact.

The Cambridge SoundWorks Ambiance 52, 62, and 82 are assembled on paintable ABS baffles designed for strength and vibration damping. Each model features transparent grilles that can also be painted to match wall color or room decor. Specially designed ``dog-leg'' mounting clamps aid in making installation simple and easy for do-it-yourself consumers or custom install specialists.

Mounting depths: Ambiance 52: 2-1/4 inches; Ambiance 62: 3-1/16 inches; Ambiance 82: 3-1/4 inches. Cut-out dimensions: Ambiance 52: 9-9/16x6-1/8 inches; Ambiance 62: 10-3/4x7-3/8 inches; Ambiance 82: 12-3/4x8-3/4 inches.
