Complete any commercial sound installation with 16 DesignMax loudspeakers to mix and match, including in-ceiling, surface-mount, and pendant form factors, subwoofers, high-SPL compression-driver models, compact low-profile models, and outdoor-rated options
Choose from three DesignMax subwoofer models — the 180-watt in-ceiling DM8C-SUB, the 300-watt surface-mounted DM10S-SUB, and the sleek 300-watt DM10P-SUB pendant subwoofer
Deliver rich bass performance with custom drivers; for optimal performance, use select Bose Professional DSPs and amplifiers to enable Bose Professional loudspeaker EQ and SmartBass processing, which expands performance and response at any listening level
Blend with any room design with elegant form factors, minimum-bezel grilles available in black or white, and removable logos
Install easily with industry-standard accessories — all models include Euroblock connectors; in-ceiling models include plenum-rated backcans, tile bridges, and front-access audio wiring that makes installation and troubleshooting easier
Provide an open, attractive aesthetic with pendant loudspeakers featuring a recessed single-point suspension system that keeps hardware out of sight and can be used to hold and hide a service loop for easy access
