Stealth & Polk Deliver Seamless Sound Without Compromise

Choosing the right speaker to meet a customer’s aesthetic needs and produce the great sound they want is no easy task for integrators. When you add challenging environments into the mix, such as garden spaces or wet rooms and spas, then it can become even more complicated.

At AWE, we’ve recently expanded our range in all these areas to turn these potentially problematic situations instead into promising business opportunities for integrators.

Meet Stealth Acoustics and Polk Audio, available exclusively from AWE. Two fantastic speaker brands with architectural, invisible and multi-room speaker solutions that blend high audio performance with great aesthetics, inside or outside the home.

First of all, let’s look at the Stealth brand.

Stealth Invisible Speakers are the premium range of invisible speakers available to integrators. The recently re-designed L-RAD Speakers improve installation and increase performance levels, acting as the perfect solution for interior designers, architects and demanding clients.

Offering a flexible solution for every interior aesthetic, these speakers become completely invisible after installation in a wall or ceiling. On-site finishing options include latex paint, light wallpaper, fabrics and selected texture coats, leaving no visual footprint. In addition to maintaining the aesthetic integrity of any space, the speakers also deliver the superior sound quality Stealth Acoustics is known for, in any application – surround sound, multi-room audio setups, or background music in residential or commercial locations.

These invisible speakers feature new internal components and a new injection-moulded frame and back box produced in-house at Stealth’s newly expanded headquarters in the USA. Because L-RAD speakers become a permanent part of the wall or ceiling, they are built for longevity and backed by an incredible 20-year limited warranty!

*Stealth Acoustics offer increased options for exterior excellence*

For garden audio solutions, Stealth StingRay provides an innovative line of IP68 rated outdoor speakers designed to meet the toughest demands of residential, commercial and marine applications. StingRay speakers set a new standard in outdoor audio solutions by combining outdoor audio durability and exceptional sound dispersion with ease of integration.

With an IP68 waterproof rating and fully sealed moulded construction, these speakers are water, dust, and pest resistant, making them the ideal choice for outdoor entertainment or use in a wet or humid space like a pool room. The no-metal exterior design eliminates the risk of rust, ensuring that they stand the test of time and remain visually appealing. By operating reliably in temperatures ranging from minus 18° to 65° C, StingRay speakers are built to withstand everything from seaside salt spray to winter frost and glaring sun, reducing the integrator’s need for costly service visits.

The 170-degree sound dispersion pattern ensures a broad, even sound field, allowing for flexible placement and easy adjustments around obstacles without compromising audio quality. This makes StingRay ideal for integrating into complex layouts, whether in sprawling gardens or around commercial venues, as they don’t suffer from the ‘flashlight’ directional sound effect of traditional speakers. There are also two innovative hybrid StingRay Soffit Kit models for under-eave mounting providing a range of flexibility to deliver discreet and elegant solutions.

We’re also delighted to provide integrators with speakers from the acclaimed Polk Audio range too.

The Polk Audio Atrium Series is designed to withstand all weather conditions and provides high-quality sound for music, entertainment and social occasions in both indoor and outdoor environments.

*Polk Audio provides attractive, high-performance outdoor audio*

Within this range, the Atrium 4, 5, 6 and 8 are outdoor speakers that feature a rustproof aluminium grille and stainless steel/brass hardware. The Atrium 8SDI can also be used as a high-performance stereo speaker or as a component of a stereo pair thanks to its dual tweeter array and single/dual input switch. The Atrium Sub100 and Sat300 can be used independently or as a package and the Sub100 is an outdoor subwoofer that delivers superb bass impact thanks to its 10-inch, long-throw Dynamic Balance woofer with dual voice coils. Everything is housed in a moulded, acoustically sealed resin enclosure that’s marine-certified with an IPX68 rating. Finally, the SAT300 is a compact and versatile full-range satellite speaker that can be hung from the ceiling, mimicking a light fixture; wall mounted; or planted in landscaping. It’s perfect for low-profile coverage anywhere your customer wants consistently great sound.

Polk also offers speakers for inside the home which help meet aesthetic and performance requirements. The Vanishing Series of In-Ceiling and In-Wall Speakers combine a discreet design with exceptional performance. Featuring Dynamic Balance® Polypropylene Cones, these speakers deliver crisp mid-range, powerful bass, and high efficiency, making them an ideal choice for Dolby Atmos and whole-home audio. Their wafer-thin Sheer Grilles™ ensure virtually invisible installations, blending seamlessly into any interior space.

Built to fit and perform reliably within high-moisture environments, such as bathrooms and wet rooms, transitional areas, or under eaves, the RCI Series are cost-effective In-Ceiling and In-Wall Speakers made with rust-proof stainless-steel hardware, durable butyl rubber surrounds, powder-coated aluminium and painted steel grilles.
