    Details

    1200LR — Front Channel Speakers

    The Model 1200 LR Front Channel Speaker is a high-performance 2-way system intended for use with a quality subwoofer, such as the Atlantic Technology Model 212 SB box-type subwoofer. Each speaker contains an advanced GLH (Graphite Loaded Homopolymer) 4.5” (115mm) woofer and a specially designed 1” (25mm) ferrofluid-cooled, damped soft dome tweeter with a powerful neodymium magnet structure. The speaker components are mounted in an acoustically inert MDF enclosure, with each speaker magnetically shielded so it can be placed close to a TV set without concern for stray magnetic fields distorting the picture.

    These versatile speakers are equally suited for LR satellite, center or surround applications. For full features and specifications, be sure to download the PDF owners manual for the 1200 System found on the 1200 internal page under the ‘Manuals’ heading.

    1200C - Center Channel Speaker

    The perfect center channel companion for the 1200 or 920 systems, this speaker employs a closely-grouped M-T-M driver array for optimum coverage of the listening area. In addition, as with all of our center channel speakers, the 1200C comes with a unique tilting base so the speaker is always precisely aimed at your ears. This aiming capability ensures high intelligibility of voices, dialogue, and on-screen effects.

    • High Frequency Tweeter Level Switch - The 1200 C has a three-position switch to compensate for 'live' or 'dead' room acoustics so the sound is never too bright or too dull. The high frequencies will always be in perfect proportion.
    • Boundary Compensation - Placing a center channel speaker directly on a large-screen TV or in a bookshelf unit can cause a buildup of lower midrange energy that makes voices and instruments sound unnaturally thick and heavy.

    To compensate, we've developed a boundary circuit that counteracts this problem. When activated, the boundary compensation switch will return the lower midrange-particularly male voices-to its natural, uncolored state.

    The 1200C center channel shares the same design approach as our more expensive center channel speakers, but its smaller size and lower cost make it the best choice for smaller rooms.

    212SB — Subwoofer

    The 212 SB features a 10" long-throw composite cone driver with a vented motor structure and 2" high temperature, 4-layer voice coil. This powerful driver has a very stiff cone that acts like a piston throughout its operating range. Its massive magnetic motor assembly and high temperature component parts deliver exceptional performance and reliability. By utilizing a sealed enclosure design, the 212 SB offers unusually low distortion, and delivers deep smooth bass response with a gradual and predictable roll-off below resonance. As with all Atlantic Technology subwoofers, we have paid close attention to balancing accurate musical bass reproduction with terrific special effects slam.
