Improved student learning

Astronaut speakers set the standard for speech intelligibility and word recognition in the classroom. Our patented audio designs have improved training and presentations for 15 years.

Simple and secure installation

The included bracket allows quick and easy mounting to the ceiling. The Astronaut can be mounted almost anywhere on the ceiling but for the best result, mount it close to the audience.

Centré Fusion Technology

Often referred to as the “Holy Grail” of audio, authentic voice reproduction comes at a very high price in audio design. The Centré Fusion technique, partially visible by its acoustic fins, allows us to design audiophile-quality speakers of any size, shape, and power range.

Now included in the newly redesigned Astronaut XL speaker system, Centré Fusion brings an all-new level of speech intelligibility to your audience.

Ceiling mount kit with security bracket

Astronaut series speakers come standard with a ceiling mount kit for simple installation to ceiling tiles or hard-surfaced ceilings. Eye bolt security prevents unwanted removal of the Astronaut from below the ceiling.
