Now Hear This: Four New Denon Professional Loudspeaker Models Elevate Meeting Space Sound

Thu, January 22, 2015

Fort Lauderdale, FL, USA — January 22, 2015. Following the introduction of their compact DN- 304SAM audio monitors, Denon Professional (denonpro.com), introduces four premium loudspeakers for conference rooms and meeting spaces. The announcement includes the biamplified two-way DN-306SA and DN-308SA, and tri-amplified three-way DN-506SA and DN-508SA. Each features studio-grade acoustics, luxurious aesthetics, and innovative proximity controls for flexible placement options.

Designed for the support of presentation material, collaborative discussions and critical multimedia playback, the 100 Watt DN-306SA and 130 Watt DN-308SA provide clear, dynamic sound reproduction to mid and small-size meeting spaces. Combining 1.25-inch silk dome tweeters with 6-inch and 8-inch Kevlar woven woofers, respectively, each offers wide-range frequency response far beyond the capabilities of in-ceiling or laptop speakers. A three-position proximity control adapts the speaker’s bass response for placement next to walls—a natural inhibitor of neutral sound reproduction. Standard VESA mounting holes under each cabinet extend placement from tabletops and shelves to walls and ceilings. Balanced XLR and ¼-inch (6.3mm) inputs ensure simple connection to common audio sources.

Offering even greater power and acoustic performance, the 160 Watt DN-506SA and 220 Watt DN-508SA feature dedicated drivers for low, mid, and high frequencies. Both models utilize coaxial placement of the mid- and high-frequency driver, ensuring exceptional time and phase cohesion without taking up excess real estate. Discrete driver amplification and a custom crossover circuit yield stunning vocal reproduction—making either speaker ideal for situations requiring exceptional speech intelligibility. The DN-506SA and DN-508SA offer 6- and 8-inch Kevlar woven low frequency transducers, respectively. As with the aforementioned DN-306SA and DN-308SA, each provides proximity control switches and VESA mounting. In addition, each three-way speaker features a variable equalizer control for each driver, making custom calibrations quick and simple. Both the DN-506SA and DN-508SA feature XLR, ¼-inch, and RCA inputs.

Even more, all four speakers come with detachable metal grilles surrounded by an elegant liquid-smoke metallic trim. A custom waveguide ensures smooth, wide audio dispersion to the audience. When powered on, a blue LED assists with placement orientation.

“For engaging meetings with impact, our new 300 and 500 series speakers deliver on so many levels,” said Costa Lakoumentas, Senior VP of Denon Professional. “While their ease of placement and connection will impress the integrator, their exquisite appearance and jawdropping sound quality will win over even the most demanding end-user.”
