Bose Professional incorporates PhaseGuide technology in its EdgeMax ceiling speakers

Combining the typical coverage patterns of surface-mounted speakers with the aesthetics of in-ceiling speakers, These new equipment represent a new category of products from the manufacturer.

The new Premium EdgeMax ceiling speakers from Bose Professional provide sound coverage of an entire room at once, improving its quality compared to the behavior of traditional ceiling speakers thanks to the manufacturer's proprietary technology PhaseGuide.

Designed for mounting close to walls, EdgeMax speakers project high frequencies across rooms of up to 20 meters wide, placing them only on the perimeter, in addition to covering an area that would require up to four conventional speakers with cone coverage. This way, eliminates the need to install ceiling speakers in the central part of the rooms or surface-mounted speakers on the walls.

Thanks to this unique design and consistent coverage pattern, installers can better adapt to space requirements (stores, workshops, salas, etc.), facilitating both sound and aesthetics, with optimal speech and music intelligibility.

As Alan B points out. Shirley, speaker product line manager for installation at Bose Professional, “new EdgeMax premium ceiling speakers create a new category. Combining the typical coverage patterns of large surface speakers with the aesthetics of in-ceiling speakers - preferred by most architects, designers and integrators- EdgeMax provides superior audio quality and coverage by reducing the number of in-ceiling speakers required, comparing them with conventional models”.
