Introducing
VX ULTRA THIN LINE SERIES
Exciting new VX Addition
Sonance unveiled its latest addition to the Visual Experience Series product assortment, adding their Ultra Thin model to tackle shallow depth applications.
The 6" round speaker model boasts an impressive 36.5mm depth without compromising performance.
Like the other Visual Experience Series models, the new VX52R UTL speaker leverages the Sonance CDX crossover and VX Sinusoidal Waveguide to deliver wide dispersion, crisp fidelity, and neutral voicing.
The new VX52R UTL Ultra Thin-Line speaker is compatible with all 6" VX accessories to bring consistent aesthetics and flexibility to every project.
Ultra shallow install depths
With a 1.41-inch (35.7mm) mounting depth, the VX52R UTL addresses one of the architectural audio industry's most persistent installation challenges: delivering high-fidelity sound in spaces with shallow ceiling cavities, concrete substrates, or structural limitations that prevent standard speaker mounting.
features and benefits
- CDX Crossover: Sonance's proprietary crossover design optimizes driver
integration and frequency response accuracy across the audio spectrum - VX Sinusoidal Waveguide: Precisely engineered waveguide geometry ensures wide, consistent coverage with minimal off-axis coloration
- Redesigned Driver Architecture: New 5.25-inch polypropylene woofer and 0.75-inch silk dome tweeter deliver smooth tonal balance and extended frequency response (55Hz-20kHz) despite the compact enclosure
Best in Show: ISE 2026
Making its first public appearance at ISE 2026, the VX Ultra Thin-Line speaker delivered a compelling solution for depth-constrained installs—without compromise. The innovation was recognized with a Best in Show award, underscoring its impact on the integration community.
Solving Retrofit and Commercial Challenges
Engineered for installations where depth is non-negotiable:
• Historic Renovation: Preservation projects where ceiling modifications are restricted
• Commercial Retrofit: Office buildings, hotels, and retail spaces with shallow plenums above drop ceilings
• Residential Remodel: Condominiums and homes with concrete ceilings or minimal cavity depth
• Multi-Unit Housing: New construction with fire-rated assemblies and limited plenum access
With an 8-ohm impedance and 89dB sensitivity, the VX52R UTL
integrates seamlessly into distributed audio systems and can be driven by a
wide range of amplification platforms. The 8.25-inch (210mm) cutout diameter
and included paintable grille (options for Micro Trim, Trimless, or Sonance
TRUFIG Flush Mounted) maintain Sonance's "Designed to Disappear"
aesthetic philosophy.
The new VX52R UTL Ultra Thin-Line speaker is compatible with all 6" VX accessories to bring consistent aesthetics and flexibility to every project.
Portfolio Evolution
The VX52R UTL replaces Sonance's VP Series ultra-thin model,
representing a significant performance upgrade for dealers and clients who
require shallow-depth solutions. The speaker reflects Sonance's ongoing
commitment to bringing premium technologies across its entire architectural portfolio, ensuring that installation constraints don't dictate audio quality
compromises. It will be available to authorized Sonance dealers in late Q2.
