Niles Audio Ships On-Wall PHD Speakers

Niles Audio started shipping 3 models of new PHD (Plasma High Definition) series on-wall loudspeakers that are a close match to a flat panel display look. The lineup features PHD30, PHD42, and PHD60 (shown) priced $400, $600, and $900 each respectively. Speakers cover frequency range from 55Hz ( 63 for PHD42, 70 for PHD60 ) to 21,000Hz frequency with sensitivity of 90Db for PHD60, 89Db for PHD42, and 88Db for PHD30.

... All feature a patent-pending Cone Forward™ driver design that positions the woofer cones to the front of the baffle, which allows sound to radiate freely into the room. Value steps between models are dictated by cabinet size and driver configuration with the top two models featuring an adjustable dispersion-controlling pod that enables more precise imaging and sound staging and can be rotated to accommodate vertical or horizontal placement. The model numbers are organized to identify the flat panel applications where the PHD30 is ideal for flat panel displays of 30-inches or greater. Likewise, the PHD42 matches flat panel displays that are 42-inches or greater and the PHD60 is for flat panel displays that are 60-inches or greater.

All three models can be ordered with a choice of a black or silver grill at no extra charge and come with a wall-mount bracket. Dimensions ( width and depth only) , which is an important factor for those who are in need of on-walls are pretty good as well: 6.2" wide and 5.9" deep.
