AAD IQ 5.1 High Performance Compact Home Theatre Package (Black)

Making Home Theatre package “sound” as good as it looks!

The AAD 5.1 High Performance Compact Home Theatre Package  offers true-to-life sonic performance with minimum visual impact respective to the environment in which it is placed.

Driver Technology:

The IQ series employs a Mineral-Fiber Composite 3.5" drive unit which is virtually identical to the one created for our LS-Series Vertical Line Array PA systems. The IQ drive unit has an exceptionally large magnet and motor structure for a driver of its size giving it surprisingly high power handling capabilities during dynamic passages and transient attack. The proprietary 

Fabric-Composite soft dome tweeter created for the IQ Series is based on the technologies utilized in their larger—and considerably more expensive—Vi models and reproduces crystal clear high frequencies with natural articulation and clarity yet does so without fatigue during long use.

Signal Alignment:

As one of the best and most sought after crossover designers in the world for almost 30 years, Phil Jones certainly knows a poorly engineered crossover is the downfall of many loudspeakers, including some out there which are hideously expensive. Understanding the importance of a properly designed crossover as well as having the design experience to execute and seamlessly match it to its respective drive units is every bit as much art as it is science. Correct crossover design where the inexperienced loudspeaker designer is generally left in the dust, so to speak, as an experienced designer knows simply using exotic and expensive crossover components alone will never guarantee high performance… IQ model—as well as all AAD loudspeakers—crossover components are tested and matched for tolerance and countless hours of critical listening are spent on this all important phase in design to insure linear impedance and control phase shift anomalies. All IQ model crossover components are mounted on printed PC-boards and all internal crossover connections are soldered for durability over the lifetime of the loudspeaker.

Enclosure Design:

The use of an injected plastic enclosure was completely ignored due to the well known negative effect such enclosures have on overall sound quality. Instead all IQ series enclosures are hand  built MDF-Medium Density Fiberboard-enclosures which are internally damped and corner braced to keep any resonance and vibration at an absolute minimum. All IQ loudspeakers use durable 5-way binding post and can also easily be wall mounted via a simple drywall screw or a standard Omni-mount wall/ceiling bracket.
