Bose Professional’s EdgeMax series is your “secret weapon” for directing powerful, full-range audio into rooms demanding a different approach. It sounds like a surface-mount loudspeaker, looks like an in-ceiling loudspeaker, and directs sound asymmetrically into spaces where traditional loudspeakers can’t go.
The EdgeMax LP Series won Best of Show in the AV Technology category at InfoComm 2024. This award-winning solution combines surface-mount loudspeaker performance with stealthy design to shatter the limitations of traditional in-ceiling loudspeakers.
EdgeMax is engineered to be installed in room corners and along ceiling edges, projecting sound inward for room-filling coverage. Each model is purpose-built for specific horizontal coverage—90 degrees for corner placement or a wider 180 degrees.
Larger rooms with higher SPL needs benefit from the powerful, deeper 9-inch backcans and 75-degree vertical coverage angle of the original EdgeMax. New LP models feature an 80-degree vertical coverage angle optimal for rooms with lower ceilings, and their shallow 4-inch can is ideal for spaces with above-ceiling limitations and tighter clearances.
The high-frequency compression driver and high-excursion woofer deliver exceptional audio quality and power. Wall boundary loading provides greater bass response.
EdgeMax uses patented PhaseGuide® technology to direct powerful, focused sound asymmetrically from the room’s edges to the center, delivering high-fidelity sound with unique directionality.
EdgeMax LP (Low Profile) models feature an 80-degree vertical coverage angle, designed for use in rooms that have lower ceilings, such as conferencing applications. The LP versions also feature a shallow backcan height of just 4 inches (10 cm) for rooms with above-ceiling limitations and tighter clearances. The LP models bring big EdgeMax sound to smaller and more challenging spaces—growing the list of potential applications.
Larger rooms with higher-SPL needs, such as fitness centers, benefit from the powerful, deeper 9-inch (24 cm) cans of EdgeMax EM. In these demanding environments, EM models deliver proven performance, with immersive full-frequency sound for music and clear intelligibility for voice, even at high volumes. Also, EM models are designed with 75-degree vertical coverage, optimal for rooms with higher ceilings.
