Raising Audio to an Art Form
QUINTETTE

THE HEIGHT OF
ARTISTIC EXPRESSION.
Life is richer with sound. It sings. It waltzes. It dances
with energy. And Sonance Quintette™series in-ceiling
speakers were designed to bring that sound to life
with outstanding audio reproduction and exquisite
finesse. No distracting boxes or towers. No unruly
speaker wires. Just the artistic expression you’ve
infused into your room and throughout your home—
and the music you choose to accompany it. In fact,
Quintette speakers were specifically designed for
background music, bringing out its true notes through
sophisticated design and nearly a quarter century
of Sonance innovation.
QUINTETTE™SERIES
SPEAKERS FROM
SONANCE.

HEAR MORE. SEE LESS.
A paintable aluminum grille blends high performance with a small unobtrusive size. A
5-1/4" polypropylene cone woofer with rubber surround produces strong, low-distortion
bass, while dome tweeters deliver crisp, high-frequency performance to a wide
listening area. Further, pivoting tweeters on the 522QR direct sound at listeners
for clear audio even when placement options are limited. And thanks to Quintette’s
high-sensitivity, fewer speakers can cover a larger area when it comes to distributed
audio applications. With a footprint resembling can lighting and the RotoLock®
mounting system, installation is quick and easy.
HIGH-QUALITY DETAILS.
At Sonance, great looks and great sound go hand-in-hand. The result is an unparalleled audio experience.
It’s apparent in everything from the paintable grillework and the high-quality crossover components to unadulter-
ated sound quality.
