Featuring two aluminum dome tweeters, a pair of 3.5” cast-basket drivers and two 3.5” pressure-coupled Low Bass Radiators, the UIW RSS III produces a uniquely immersive experience that completely envelops listeners in an expansive, 360-degree soundstage.
Bipolar Technology for a theater-like presentation
Employing Definitive Technology’s fabled Bipolar driver architecture, UIW RSS Bipolar in-wall/ in-ceiling loudspeakers fill the room with a perfect combination of direct and reflected sound for stunning surround effects.
Flagship Definitive Technology Drivers for reference loudspeaker performance
Ultimate In-Wall Reference Series loudspeakers are designed with the same driver technologies as our flagship floor standing speakers to deliver an ultra-realistic theater experience that all in the family.
Dual 1” Pure Aluminum Tweeters
The RSSIII aluminum dome tweeters deliver a clear, precise high frequency response. Their ultralight, rigid construction enables them to play significantly higher frequencies than we can hear, providing effortless, distortion-free highs within and beyond the audible range.
Dynamic Midrange/Woofers
Most in-wall speakers lack the larger driver area of floor standing speakers. The RSSIII’s 3.5” midrange/woofer drivers match butyl rubber surrounds with rigid polypropylene cones in cast baskets to provide a much greater cone excursion than other comparably-sized drivers. The result is superior midrange and mid bass performance, wrapped in a compact, stealthy package.
Passive Bass Radiators
Each RLSIII includes twin 3.5” passive radiators. Passive radiators create more bass than comparably sized sealed or ported designs. The extra surface area moves more air, resulting in more dynamic mid bass that works beautifully on its own or mates seamlessly with subwoofers at a variety of crossover points.
Installation Flexibility Surround Sound Cinema Anywhere
Whether new or existing construction, walls or ceilings, residential or commercial, UIW Reference Series loudspeakers feature simple, secure installations. From metal pivoting lock arms to paintable grilles and frames to fully sealed enclosures, Definitive Technology engineers designed speakers that put installation simplicity on equal footing with sound quality.
Rotating Arrays for optimal directivity
When RSSIII Bipolar speakers are installed in the ceiling, the driver arrays can be rotated 90° to optimize performance for your listening area.
Fully Enclosed for powerful sound where you want it
UIW Reference Series loudspeakers are fully enclosed and sealed with dense, acoustically inert, anti-resonant, anti-vibration Medite® wood. With the RSSIII, you’ll hear loud, accurate, uncolored midrange and tight, powerful bass with no buzzing or sound leakage into walls and ceilings.
