is emitted from an infinite number of points on the
speakers surface simultaneously� This complex waveform
is unlike that created by a conventional loudspeaker,
but is interpreted by our brains as ‘correct’ and therefore
sounds great, despite being complex� Where this really
helps out is in reflective rooms, with lots of acoustic
reflections� A conventional loudspeaker would have
difficulty reproducing sound clearly in such a space
without introduction of phase cancellation and comb
filtering issues from the relationship between direct
and reflected sounds� With Neostein loudspeakers, the
incoherent-phase sound signal does not interact with
reflections in a perceivably negative way� This means
that intelligibility and clarity are retained as well as
minimising hot and cold spots throughout the space�
Wet Rooms
When fully installed, plastered over and painted
adequately, Neostein loudspeakers are as waterproof
as the wall or ceiling into which they are installed�
This means that they work perfectly in wet rooms
such as bathrooms, shower rooms, swimming pool
areas and gyms� It is not recommended to use
Neostein loudspeakers where water will be continually
sprayed onto them (such as inside a shower cubicle,
or underwater!) but they will provide great sound if
positioned in a wet-room ceiling�
Surround Sound
An ideal solution for multi-channel audio systems,
Neostein unlocks the potential to have a fully immersive
surround sound system in a room such as a living
space, bedroom, bathroom or even a dedicated media
room� Either used for the entire surround system, or
to supplement traditional ‘front’ speakers, Neostein
speakers can create a huge sound with invisible rear and
height channels with zero aesthetic or design impact�
A fully in-ceiling surround sound system can give
incredible results� Without the visual cue of a traditional
speaker box, our brains are easily fooled into thinking
that the sound is coming from the screen (or behind us)
when in fact all speakers are installed in-ceiling�
With full 360º dispersion characteristics, a Neostein
surround system is truly immersive� Sound fills the
room effectively and effortlessly, putting the listener
in the centre of the action� Perfect for height channels
in a Dolby Atmos system� With their wide dispersion
pattern, there is no need to ‘toe-in’ the loudspeakers,
meaning that everyone in the room receives great
sound no matter where they are sat� No more fighting
for the sweet spot! While Neostein speakers offer full
dispersion, it is still important to place the loudspeakers
in accordance with system recommendations and
conventions such as horizontal and vertical angles from
the listening position� For more information on creating
