Habitech and Sonance at Moss of Bath
Our Managing Director, Tim Moss, recently spent the day visiting Habitech; a distributor of Home Entertainment and Home Automation products based in Hampshire.
Habitech’s belief is that home entertainment and automation should be easy to use and affordable, and that ‘value’ means the best combination of performance, simplicity and reliability. Habitech offers support, information and training to custom installers like Moss of Bath and have a large training, demonstration and workshop facility at their head office in Basingstoke.
With an ever increasing demand for home cinema and media rooms, Tim was particularly interested to view and learn more about the Sonance brand with a view to supplying and installing their specialist products in future projects. In addition, two members of the Moss of Bath team will be undertaking specialised training at Habitech later this month.
Sonance came to life in 1983 when founders Scott Struthers and Geoff Spencer recognised the need for a groundbreaking new audio solution. They believed that no product or system existed that could deliver unsurpassed acoustic performance with minimal visual intrusion. It was this revelation that led them to invent the category of architectural speakers.
Sonance believe that technology should disappear into architecture and their range of hidden audio solutions deliver an even, balanced sound experience blending into any style, installation, or budget.
Sonance speakers preserve the integrity of a home or commercial environment’s design, with a range of premium loudspeakers for indoors and outdoors. Sonance has a complete line of flush-mount in-wall and in-ceiling speakers available reinforced with a range of multi-room systems and accessories.
Visual Performance Series
The Visual Performance Series speakers offer extraordinary sound quality in an understated design, complementing the space without competing for attention. The Visual Performance Series features striking aesthetic grilles with small trim that blend gracefully into any designed environment, allowing music to fill the room without disturbing the design of the room.
Architectural Series
Sonance Architectural Series are perfectly flush, completely trimless in-wall and in-ceiling speakers that precisely align with the surrounding surface to seamlessly integrate Sonance’s legendary sound quality into a unique design vision. With Sonance Architectural Series, audio quality and design integrity work together.
Invisible Series
Sonance Invisible Series speakers have the ability to outfit any room or space with sound without creating clutter, distractions, or disruptions to the interior design. Sonance Invisible Series speakers vanish into a room design, delivering ambient music that comes directly from walls and ceilings. Sonance Invisible Series speakers complement some of the most prominent and prestigious properties in the world, including distinctive residences, glamorous resorts, and exclusive retail establishments.
Cinema Series
With Sonance Cinema Series home theatre solutions, the movie’s music, special effects and dialogue are reproduced perfectly without cluttering the home theatre. Sonance home theatre solutions deliver every whisper of sound and every note of the soundtrack with perfect clarity…just as it was intended.
Professional Series
Sonance see an expanding role for their products beyond home. Sonance Professional Series provides the AV integrator with just what is needed for architects and designers who demand higher levels of performance and aesthetics for their commercial projects. The Professional Series products draw on the strengths of residential products while meeting the unique requirements and certifications necessary for commercial applications. All products feature transformer taps for use in 70V and 100V applications.
Landscape Series (SLS)
The Landscape Series uses strategically placed “satellite” speakers that are hidden within garden beds or amongst the foliage of trees. A subwoofer enclosure is then buried under ground or within shrubs, with just an earth-coloured hood dispersing sound perfectly. It’s all about blending discreetly into the surroundings.
Outdoor Speakers
Outdoor Speakers by Sonance offer the ideal product portfolio to fulfil the rapidly growing demand for outdoor entertainment in high-end residences. With designs and materials tailored to meet the rigorous demands of open-air applications, Outdoor Speakers bring the superior look and sound of Sonance to the great outdoors. Under the eaves, around the barbeque, by the pool, and in the garden, Sonance Outdoor Speakers have the right solution for every element of your outdoor audio installation.
