AMC 2000
HIGH PERFORMANCE
IN- WALL SPEAKER
FOR INVISIBLE THEATER, AN IN- WALL VERSION
OF THE AWARD WINNING XA 1900THX
The AMC 2000 is the in-wall version of the world’s first THX Ultra2 certified
speaker. The AMC 2000 sets a benchmark for main channels playback of...Music
and Movies...Digital and ProLogic...DVD and CD. David Smith, Snell’s president
and chief engineer, solved the three problems that hold back In-Wall speakers
from serious theater consideration. First, to establish predictable bass response a
special “back-box” enclosure was developed, which like all conventional loudspeakers,
determines the speaker’s bass response. Second, the best materials were used. Other
In-Walls use cheap plastics, which color the sound and leak sound to adjacent
rooms. The AMC 2000 features a heavily braced and well damped MDF cabinet to
optimize performance by controlling resonance. Third, the tweeter-midrange
array is “toed”in” to replicate the sound stage capabilities of free standing
speakers. The result is a system of uncompromising neutality and dimension. The
AMC 2000 deploys the components of the award winning Snell XA 1900THX in a space
efficient enclosure designed to fit into conventional 2 x 4 walls, even behind
acoustically transparent screens. Intended for home theater and music system’s L/C/R
channels, the AMC 2000 features a three-driver eXpanding Array (XA) of dual 2 ½-inch
midranges and 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter. This unique driver/crossover innovation
manages vertical directivity without lobing, for a natural and “airy” soundstage. Further-
more, its controlled dispersion pattern and special tuning compensate for unpredictable
room acoustics and boundary interactions. Coupled with two 8-inch high output
woofers, theAMC 2000 is capable of tremendous output, providing effortless, powerful
sound to below 60 Hz. Every AMC 2000 is assembled by hand and individually cali-
brated, assuring performance to within 0.5dB of its reference standard.
