Perlisten R5i LR In Wall Speaker

The Perlisten R5i-LR is a true in-wall solution for listeners who expect their home theaters to sound like real high-end systems, not just hidden installations.

Adapted directly from the acclaimed R5m monitor and R5t tower, the R5i-LR is designed for left, right, or center channel duties behind an acoustically transparent screen or as dynamic left and right speakers in a premium media room.

This is not a good enough architectural speaker. With directivity control reaching lower into the frequency range, true DPC array technology, THX Dominus surround certification, and THX Ultra LCR certification, the R5i-LR belongs in serious theaters where performance cannot be compromised.

It offers full timbre matching across the R-Series lineup, not just in materials but across frequency response, power response, and phase, so you can build immersive systems that stay cohesive no matter where you sit.

Key Features

• Advanced DPC-Array: Three 26mm silk dome drivers delivering precise directivity and flawless integration with all R-Series models
• Custom dual woofers: 165mm High Performance Fiber pulp diaphragms, developed over two years for natural, detailed bass
• 3-Way Acoustic Suspension Design: True sealed cabinet performance for controlled bass and reduced room interaction
• THX Dominus Certified (Surround) and THX Ultra Certified (LCR): Highest THX architectural ratings for home theater performance
• Shallow Depth: Only 4 inches deep for easy installation in standard stud walls
• Rigid Aluminum Rear Enclosure: Controls resonance and minimizes sound leakage into adjacent rooms
• Architectural Flexibility: Ideal for LCR behind screens, or Left/Right/Surround use in media and theater rooms
• Consistent Performance: Sealed enclosure guarantees predictable sound across different room environments
• Magnetic Paintable Grille: Blends invisibly into any wall

Designed for Cinematic Authority

The R5i-LR is not a compromise to fit the room. It is a statement of what in-wall speakers should be. Using the same DPC-Array concept as Perlisten’s flagship models, it provides smooth midrange and treble response with stunning off-axis consistency.

Thanks to the combination of three custom-designed 26mm silk domes and two 165mm pulp-cone woofers, the R5i-LR delivers deep bass, lifelike vocals, and dynamic slam that few in-walls can approach.

Unlike traditional open-back architectural designs, the R5i-LR’s rigid 4-inch deep aluminum enclosure preserves tonal balance, reduces rear wave interference, and protects performance from unpredictable wall structures.

A True Value in Real Systems

In a world filled with architectural compromises, the R5i-LR stands out as a true value among medium-sized theater speakers. Its performance easily rivals or surpasses many far more expensive in-wall options.

It is just as comfortable as a left-center-right (LCR) array behind an acoustically transparent screen as it is as a powerful left and right solution in open-concept media rooms.

Timbre-matched perfectly across the R-Series thanks to shared DPC-array architecture, you can create entire Atmos and DTS:X theaters with seamless, enveloping sound without worrying about speaker blending or tonal shifts.

The Listening Room Difference

Installing serious in-wall speakers is more than making a cutout and slapping in a grille. Real performance depends on placement, wall structure, amplification, and system integration. When you work with us, you get more than a speaker. You get design advice, placement support, and long-term system success. We make sure the R5i-LR becomes exactly what it was meant to be, a real high-fidelity engine for your theater, perfectly integrated and dialed in.
