Triad PDX Series 4 In-Ceiling Speaker - 8"
Bring premium sound to your architectural speaker projects with Triad PDX, which combines easy-to-install Push Lock by Swarm technology with the industry-leading sound of Triad. Triad PDX uses high-performance materials and the finest components like carbon fiber, Kevlar, Teteron, and dual voice coils. Furthermore, each speaker is designed and engineered in Portland, OR., with a full acoustic analysis in an anechoic chamber for the perfect audio experience. Installation is also a breeze with Push Lock by Swarm technology, an exclusive toolless mounting solution specifically designed for Snap One that delivers the industry's fastest and most secure installation.
Easy, Toolless Install
Give your customers the ultimate audio experience with the ultimate install! Triad PDX features Push Lock by Swarm technology, a toolless mounting solution designed for Snap One. Push Lock secures the speaker with the simple press of a button for the fastest and most secure install on the market for both in-ceiling and in-wall speakers. Plus, the dogs cinch down an extra 6mm when you need additional security in situations with uneven sheetrock, popcorn ceilings, etc.
Seamless Installation, Your Way!
Triad PDX offers an exceptional solution for a seamless installation. Each speaker can be installed at once with zero tools, or you can remove the speaker and install the cradle with its optional backbox and grille, which allows you to return and place the speaker post-construction. All of this is done without compromising the industry-leading sound and build quality for which Triad is known.
Optional Rear Enclosures
All Triad PDX speakers have an optional rear enclosure that reduces sound propagation to adjacent rooms while providing a predictable environment for installation, giving your customers the very best custom audio experience.
Woven Carbon-Fiber Woofer
The high fiber count woven Carbon Fiber woofer's strength and responsiveness ensures stunning linear tonal balance, while the cone's PVA coating dampens resonance for higher sonic purity. A high excursion 1-1/4" voice coil allows increased motor stamina, heat reduction, improved power handling, and superior bass performance.
1” Pivoting Teteron Dome Tweeter
Everything about Triad PDX centers around the purest sound quality possible. The 1" pivoting Teteron dome tweeter with oversized surround increases the piston area to deliver higher sensitivity and smoother frequency response by reducing motion interference. Woofer vibration is eliminated by mounting the tweeter in a mechanically inert die-cast tweeter bridge - which can also be used as an installation handle for a safe and seamless install.
Classic Triad Voicing
Triad PDX speakers use top-shelf crossover components and are tuned like all other Triad speakers to give them their coveted Triad sound. They can even seamlessly integrate with other Triad speakers due to their Timbre matching, allowing you to mix and match speakers within the series to meet the needs of each room while providing identical tonal qualities throughout the home.
Tweeter Adjustment Switch
The tweeter adjustment switch helps you deliver detailed and clear sound in any space. It compensates for an overly reflective or overly damped room by either cutting or increasing the Tweeter level to improve performance.
Cast Aluminum Tweeter Bar
The PDX Series features a cast aluminum tweeter bar, making it easy to handle the speaker, carry it up the ladder, and put it in place.
New Construction Brackets
Our new construction brackets offer enhanced flexibility during installation in new builds. They go in before the drywall, allowing the drywaller to cut holes for them and streamline the installation process.
Optional Custom Colored Grilles
Order your speaker with a standard Triad white speaker grille or, for a slight upcharge, order a custom-colored grille to match the room's dГ©cor or wall/ceiling color.
Secure On Site
Not all job sites are secure during the construction phase, leaving components left onsite susceptible to theft. With The Triad PDX 2-piece baffle/speaker module assembly, you can remove the speaker module for safe storage offsite until the site is secure while the Frame/HVAC cover and grille remain installed.
