Sound wall
By creating a ‘sound wall’, you can combine speakers for more concentrated power. The Cinergy Sub15 is designed to be half the height of the Cinergy 300, making it stackable for use in a hidden sound wall. All models also come with brackets and isolation accessories for installers. Both Cinergy 300 and Cinergy Sub15 have inserts in the bottom of the cabinets for the isolation feet.
