MIAMI, FLORIDA – March 24, 2008 – Niles Audio Corporation, The First Name In Custom Installation®, announced the company’s StageFront Home Theater Solutions™ loudspeaker line has been named the 2008 TechHome® Mark of Excellence Award winner in the Best Speaker Systems category. Designed specifically for home theater applications, the line includes both in-wall and cabinet models that are voice-matched to deliver consistent uniform sound quality, regardless of loudspeaker type. This frees custom installers to design systems incorporating some models that are built into cabinets or placed on stands with others that are built into walls, optimizing performance, appearance and design flexibility. This is a feature unique to Niles, as no other brand on the market today offers voice-matched cabinet and in-wall home theater loudspeakers that can be mixed and matched, while maintaining seamless integration and timbre. The Mark of Excellence Awards program, presented by CEA’s TechHome Division, recognizes the best in custom home electronics products, services and installed technology and represents only the most recent among Niles’ numerous industry accolades. Mark of Excellence Award winners were recognized at a banquet held March 14th at the 2008 Electronic House Expo (EHX) Spring 2008 in Orlando, Fla.

“We are extremely proud and honored to have the StageFront Home Theater Solutions selected by the CEA for this prestigious award,” said Frank Sterns, president of Niles. “The entire Niles team worked very hard to develop a great sounding line of home theater loudspeakers that uniquely address real installation challenges and it is quite gratifying to have our efforts acknowledged”, Sterns added.

The StageFront In-Wall Loudspeaker assortment includes four LCR models and two dedicated Surround Effects loudspeakers. All feature a ported enclosure tuned specifically for maximum sensitivity, dynamics and high-fidelity sound in an in-wall application and all fit within a standard 2" x 4" stud-wall depth. A steel bezel permanently affixed to the baffle board enables drivers to be placed as far forward as possible and provides for maximum use of the air volume within the wall. Each loudspeaker is equipped with epoxy-coated flat-steel grilles using a magnetic attachment method and a captured toggle bolt mounting system with metal dogs for easy retrofit installation. The StageFront Pro Loudspeakers line is comprised of four LCR models, two dedicated on-wall Surround Effects models and a high-performance box subwoofer. All feature sealed box construction for accurate extended low frequency response. Enclosures are constructed from 1" medium density fiberboard and are finished in matte black with sculpted metal grilles. Box dimensions are specifically designed to match rack-mount cabinet width when the loudspeakers are placed vertically or horizontally.
