3 high-performance
speakers in one for today’s
fl at screen technologies
Home Theater could be the most enjoyable,
signifi cant development in at-home
entertainment to come along in a generation.
Being able to literally “go to the movies”
in one’s own living room has completely
transformed the experience of watching
television.
Great sound is an integral, essential
component to the theater experience at home.
The downside for most people comes from
having to mount and wire speakers all over
their room. It’s inconvenient, confusing, and
unsightly.
Enter Atlantic’s innovative FS-4000 Front
Stage Loudspeaker. This sleek, 40”-long unit
contains all three front speakers—left, center,
and right—in a single enclosure. It’s perfect for
the growing number of customers who just
want a simple, attractive, one-piece speaker
solution under their fl at-screen television, without all the visual clutter of separate left,
center, and right speakers surrounding their stylish, thin TV. The cabinet is internally
separated into three chambers, each with a 1” tweeter, a 4½” magnetically-shielded
woofer and a 4½” Bass Pressure Driver. Bass response extends down to 75Hz, for full-
bodied sound even without a subwoofer.
All three speakers in the FS-4000 have two rear-panel
controls—a 3-position HF Energy switch and a 2-position
Boundary Compensation switch—to optimize the speakers’
performance regardless of room acoustics or placement.
These controls allow the FS-4000 to always sound its best.
The FS-4000 uses the same drivers and crossover
technology as our highly-acclaimed 2200 and FS-3200
systems, so there is absolutely no compromise in
sound quality or tonal accuracy by having the three front channels in a
single enclosure. With the FS-4000, it’s now possible to enjoy the
legendary Atlantic sound from speakers that blend right into
the room.
The decorative side panels are fi nished in a
choice of automotive-grade Metallic Silver
or a rich-looking Gloss Black paint.

Notice that the FS-4000’s tweeters
are offset above the centerline of the
woofers. This is a perfect example
of the way that Atlantic pays close
attention to acoustic details. By moving
the tweeters up, we signifi cantly
reduce the audibly-intrusive
interference patterns that result from
woofers and tweeters being mounted
side-by-side.
