The V833D and V833DR use high-performance carbon fiber for their woofer and midrange cones, again to improve the accuracy of sound quality while reducing distortion. The V834D woofer also includes an extended pole piece, which improves power handling and heat dissipation.
The top-of-the-line rectangular and round models (V834D and V834DR, respectively) feature woofer cones, midrange cones, and tweeter domes made from beryllium, which is stiffer, lighter and more resilient than conventional materials, and provides more accurate sound reproduction with less distortion, especially at higher volumes. In addition to the pivoting Sonic Eye, all of the round speaker models also feature a fully-pivoting woofer assembly both of these features are designed to increase installation options by allowing installers to precisely direct the soundfield toward the main listening area. Sonance also specifically designed one model (VRS2) to create a wide, diffuse soundfield that is ideal for surround-channel applications.Īccording to Sylvester, every speaker in the new Virtuoso line surpasses its predecessor model in both sound quality and ease of installation. Two of the round models (V833SSDR and V831SSDR) are designed to receive stereo input connections and reproduce both stereo channels from a single speaker for applications where space is at a premium.

The Virtuoso line, consisting of four rectangular (in-wall) models and seven round (in-ceiling) models, is based on a 3-way driver design using an 8" cone woofer, and a cone midrange and dome tweeter that are coaxially-mounted in an exclusive pivoting Sonic Eye® assembly. "We've made many substantial upgrades to improve the sound and appearance of every Virtuoso model," said Scott Sylvester, director of product strategy, "We also continue to simplify the installation process for our dealers, and offer aesthetic improvements, such as the Architectural Finish kit that provides a more polished appearance for our consumers." All new Virtuoso speakers maintain the same footprint as previous Virtuoso speakers to make upgrades easier. New FastMount® positioning tabs (basically "one-way" metal clips that grab the drywall ceiling while you fumble for a screwdriver) have been added for hands-free installation, while the speakers' introduce an all new option of an Architectural Finish, eliminating the visible mounting frame around all in-wall speakers. The 11-model line incorporates a variety of new woofer and tweeter materials that measurably improve sound quality, and all Virtuoso round speakers now offer a fully-pivoting woofer assembly to more precisely direct sound toward the listener. Sonance introduced a completely new Virtuoso® in-wall and in-ceiling speaker line featuring several award-winning technologies that deliver dramatically improved audio performance for both home theater and multi-room audio applications.
