The Perlisten S4i-LCRS is the most versatile speaker in Perlisten's in-wall line, built to deliver reference-level performance from any position in a home cinema. Use it as a main left, center, or right speaker or for surround duty, and it holds the same clarity and dynamic precision that defines the S-Series. It is one of the most flexible high-performance in-wall speakers made, with dual THX certifications: Ultra for LCR and Dominus for surrounds. This is the building block for a high-performance theater that disappears into the room.
Key Features of the Perlisten S4i-LCRS
- Dual THX Certified: Certified for both THX Dominus (Surround) and THX Ultra (LCR), for elite performance in any channel of a high-end cinema.
- Proprietary DPC-Array: The patent-pending DPC-Array pairs a central 28mm beryllium tweeter with dual 28mm TeXtreme midrange domes for precise accuracy and dispersion control.
- Perfect Timbre Matching: Carries the same voice as the rest of the S-Series for a cohesive, immersive 360-degree soundfield.
- Beryllium Tweeter: The 28mm beryllium dome delivers high-frequency detail and extension with clarity.
- TeXtreme TPCD Woofer: A 180mm TPCD (Thin Ply Carbon Diaphragm) woofer delivers fast, articulate bass with real output for its size.
- Integrated Aluminum Enclosure: A shallow 4-inch mounting depth and a rigid, integral aluminum back-box keep performance predictable and minimize sound leakage into adjacent rooms.
- Acoustic Suspension Design: The sealed 3-way design delivers tight, accurate bass for music and movie soundtracks alike.
The Shape of Sound
The S4i-LCRS is built for flexibility without compromise, and that comes from the DPC-Array, which precisely controls the speaker's sound radiation. Mounted vertically as a main speaker or horizontally as a center channel, it delivers a direct sound field free from the blurring of room reflections. The result is a large soundstage with pinpoint imaging and clarity that stays consistent in every application, which makes it an ideal building block for an invisible, high-performance theater.
Performance in Predictability
The S4i-LCRS removes the acoustic variables of an in-wall install. It uses a fully integrated, sealed aluminum enclosure that gives its drivers a solid, optimized environment, so the speaker delivers the same reference-level performance in every installation regardless of wall construction. That back-box also provides acoustic isolation, keeping sound from bleeding into adjoining rooms and your cinema right where it belongs.
Installation is tool-light and secure. Rotating dog-leg clamps draw the speaker tight against the drywall once it is set into the cutout, holding it flat and flush with no visible fasteners on the baffle.
Dual THX Certification
The dual THX certification reflects how much the S4i-LCRS can do. As a THX Ultra LCR it delivers reference cinematic impact and dialogue clarity from the front of the room. As a THX Dominus Surround it creates a large, enveloping soundfield in even the largest home cinemas. That combination makes the S4i-LCRS one of the most capable architectural speakers available, with a level of guaranteed performance few in-wall speakers can claim.
Complete the Perlisten Architectural System
The S4i-LCRS is the flexible all-rounder of Perlisten's S-Series in-wall line, voiced to match the rest of the architectural range so every channel shares one sound:
- Build the front stage with the S5i-LR and S5i-C, or step up to the flagship S7i-LR and S7i-C.
- Run a row of S4i-LCRS units for matched surround and rear channels around the room.
- Add height and overhead channels with the S3ic in-ceiling speaker.
- Prefer to mount on the wall rather than in it? The Perlisten X-Series on-wall speakers share the same design language.
