About The GoldenEar Invisa 850 In-Ceiling Speaker
Enjoy surprisingly big, open sound and precise three-dimensional imaging with the GoldenEar Invisa 850 in-ceiling loudspeaker.
The Invisa 850 combines GoldenEar's Reference High-Velocity Folded Ribbon AMT tweeter and an 8″ High-Definition Cast-Basket Multi-Vaned Phase Plug (MVPP) mid/bass driver for exceptional clarity, wide dispersion, and fully immersive sound.
The angle of the 850's tweeter can be easily adjusted to optimize dispersion and minimize unwanted reflections, adding versatility and convenience without sacrificing sonic performance. A high-frequency equalization switch allows further tailoring to the room and the listener's tastes.
Thanks to its one-piece hidden-flange construction and magnetically attached grille, the Invisa 850 virtually disappears into its surroundings. Round grille included; ISG-850/7000 square grille and RB-850/7000 rough-in brackets also available.

Pivotable Tweeter Design: The angle of the Invisa 850's AMT tweeter can be easily adjusted to optimize dispersion and minimize unwanted reflections, adding versatility and convenience without sacrificing sonic performance.
High-Frequency EQ Control: The Invisa 850 features a high-frequency EQ switch to subtly and naturally compensate for overly bright or overly dull listening environments.
High-Definition Cast-Basket Multi-Vaned Phase Plug Mid/Bass Drivers: GoldenEar's high-definition cast-basket mid/bass drivers employ Multi-Vaned Phase Plugs, improving the drivers' ability to produce exceptional off-axis response for a cinematic soundstage and immersive listening experience.
