Leon Displays New Products at CEDIA Expo 2008

Leon Profile 404-X-A — Audiophile Meets AudioStyle

Beautifully styled and expertly crafted, the Profile 404-X-A delivers high-fidelity and high-design to any environment. With a depth of only 3-1/4 inches, the Profile 404-X-A complements new, thinner flat-panel TVs, and can be custom-built to match the exact height and finish of any display. Not only can the Profile 404-X-A match any TV, but it is also available in a number of wood-veneered baffles and can be painted to any color to match any home decor. The Profile 404-X-A is well suited for small theater settings and two channel audiophile listening rooms. It utilizes some of the finest drivers and tweeters in the world: each channel features dual 4-inch Peerless HDS woofers and a Morel MDT29 1-inch hand-treated, cloth-dome tweeter housed in a vented enclosure. The speaker boasts a 65 Hz to 22 kHz frequency response and a power rating of 235 W per channel. For consumers who desire the same level of quality from their surround sound speakers, Leon also offers the timbre-matched Profile 114-X-A Surround Sound Series. Also just 3-1/4 inches deep, the Profile 114-X-A Surrounds can be easily mounted on-wall to produce superb stereo imaging. If customers want their surround speakers to be hidden out of sight, the Profile 114i-X-A is also available for in-wall installations. Custom-built in only three to five business days, the Profile 404-X-A, 114-X-A, and 114i-X-A are available now at starting MSRPs of $2,495, $1,395, and $1,495 per pair respectively.

Leon A3-SUB

Leon Speakers also debuts a very unique 3-in-1 compact subwoofer sporting a radical new design. The new A3-SUB redefines the possibility of large bass from a small enclosure for in-wall, on-wall, or in-room configurations. Featuring AuraSound-patented Neo Radial Technology (NRT) and a unique teardrop-shaped motor structure, this subwoofer can handle large amounts of power with minimal compression. The A3-SUB's modular design allows quick and easy conversion to in-wall, on-wall, or in-room setups for short lead times or project plan changes. The A3-SUB boasts an 8-inch Aura driver delivering extremely large 1.6-inch peak excursion, increased linearity, lower distortion, greater efficiency, and greater power handling to 400 W. Measuring just 12 inches by 14 inches, and less than 4 inches deep, it achieves a 30 Hz to 1 kHz frequency bandwidth in a .25-cubic-foot cabinet. The reverse-mounted magnet design increases usable air volume and yields surprising bass and sound levels from an extremely small cabinet. The A3-SUB also comes with vibration dampening wall mounts and is triple braced for rigidity. The A3-SUB is available as a standalone subwoofer and can also be powered with a 1000-W Leon sub amplifier. Custom-built in only three to five business days, the A3-SUB is available now at a starting MSRP of $895 while the amplifier starts at $995.
