Quality Construction

The Stealth F8 is a two-way system, incorporating an acoustically coupled high quality, high-power 8" cone woofer and a directly coupled 25mm neo-magnet high-frequency motor. Advanced internal carbon fiber materials allow for smooth frequency extension to 20kHz, even with four coats of paint. As with all Stealth speakers, the beefy crossover system is over provisioned to take abuse and is equipped with self-resetting poly switches to protect the drivers well below their rated power handling. To further ensure consistent quality, we test each Stealth speaker with computer analysis and a listening test before they are released for shipment.

The Stealth Acoustics model F8 is a two-way, full-range loudspeaker system that becomes completely invisible after installation. The loudspeaker has a rigid frame which attaches directly to standard structural framing without the need for special mounting brackets. The paintable active diaphragm face is a structurally modified three layer composite consisting of two layers of graphics grade paper with a foam core. The diaphragm is bonded to the frame creating an active area surrounded by stable mounting area. Basic installation instructions are printed on the paintable face of the panel and a dashed line identifies where the active diaphram area begins. The edges of the panel are tapered similar to the edges of gypsum wallboard, providing the room necessary for normal wallboard tape and joint compound to be used to feather the speaker seamlessly into the wall. The F8 loudspeaker comes equipped to match either 1/2” or 5/8” wallboard installations. On-site finishing options include latex paint, covering with light wallpaper, fabrics and selected texture coats. There is no need for special vellums or other nonstandard wallboard finishing materials.

The Stealth F8 incorporates an acoustically coupled high quality, high-power 8” cone woofer and a direct coupled 25mm neo-magnet high-frequency motor. Advanced internal carbon fiber materials allow for smooth frequency extension to 20 kHz. When the F8 is installed in standard insulated 2x4 framing and allowed to function in a full 8’ stud bay, frequency response below 45 Hz can be achieved. The F8 contains two independent protection circuits (high-frequency and low-frequency sections) that automatically reset upon reduction of excessive amplifier power. Stealth Acoustics speaker invisibility allows for powerful advantages over other loudspeakers as they can be placed wherever they sound best, free of visual concerns that may conflict with architectural features. Stealth Acoustics offers complete, invisible companion subwoofer solutions for extended low frequency response.
