Look up on the side and rear walls of a large cinema and you will often see flat panel type speakers. Here is a range of home theatre rear, surround or even front main speakers that can be used in a similar wall hugging fashion. In no way has the performance of these speakers been compromised, they are all exceptionally clear and accurate performers, adding the realism to movies or music you would expect from a high quality speaker, and drawing you into the experience.

Comments: This is our largest flat
panel speaker and
uses the superb clarity, efficiency and fast response of the kevlar
cone woofer/mid married with one of our best dome tweeters. This
speaker has a very natural and even response and is essentially the
same as the Timberwolf 5522KX, only the cabinet dimensions have been
changed to
suit a wall hugging flat panel use. Suitable all-round in a high end home theatre system, or just as fronts with smaller flat panel surrounds (e.g. FP512RV), or just as the surround speakers in a system with large floorstanding fronts (e.g. Summoner 1093 or Timberwolf 8883).
Here are some suggestions for home theatre setups taken from our range of models that would work well as a combination, keeping in mind that there are many other combinations possible depending on your circumstances. Feel free to call if you have any particular combinations in mind (model codes may vary slightly).
