This prestigious accolade is a testament to the speaker's ability to deliver high output levels and a cinematic atmosphere that rivals professional movie theaters.

Superior Sensitivity and Low Distortion

Drawing parallels with its renowned sibling, the S7t tower, the S7i matches its sensitivity and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) levels. This means you'll be enjoying the same high-fidelity audio, with minimal distortion, in a sleek, in-wall design.

Versatile Application

The 28mm Beryllium dome tweeter, dual 28mm TPCD ultra-lightweight domes, and four 180mm Textreme TPCD woofers combine to deliver an audio experience that is as precise as it is powerful.

Seamless Integration

With a mounting depth of just 4 inches and an attractive white grille paired with a black baffle, the S7i integrates seamlessly into any room. Its dimensions and weight reflect the solid construction and craftsmanship that Perlisten is known for, guaranteeing a speaker that not only sounds exceptional but also blends beautifully with your home décor.

Advanced Acoustic Design

The Perlisten Audio S7i doesn't compromise on sound quality or design. The 4-way acoustic suspension and the fully-enclosed aluminum cabinet with a bituminous damping layer minimize vibrations and internal reflections. This meticulous design ensures a clear, detailed, and dynamic sound reproduction.

Power and Performance

With a recommended amplifier power of 100 - 350W RMS, the S7i's SPL capability reaches up to 119.7dB peak.
