July 24th, 2009 (Lexington, KY) — THIEL Loudspeakers (www.thielaudio.com), has announced the debut of a new surface-mount outdoor loudspeaker called the DewPoint™. A derivative of THIEL’s groundbreaking PowerPoint®1.2 on-wall/on-ceiling speaker, the DewPoint™ can be placed in a wide variety of outdoor (and indoor) locations on ceilings and walls in an inclement environment provided that it does not receive direct exposure to water. Mounting DewPoints beneath an eave or under a covered porch are good examples of recommended placement.

Many steps have been taken to provide the DewPoints with a high degree of resistance to environmental extremes. The enclosure is made of sturdy aluminum and is paintable to match any décor. The DewPoint’s anodized aluminum grille is impervious to rust and attached to the cabinet with a soft-set adhesive. All of the mounting hardware included with the speakers is made of top quality stainless steel.

The DewPoint’s combination of coaxial/coplanar drivers, wedge-shaped enclosure, and 90 degree radiation pattern enables the sound to cover virtually any area far more completely than normal, more directional surface-mount or in-wall/in-ceiling speakers. By utilizing the combination of carefully engineered woofer positioning and angle, DewPoints eliminate the wall-reflection cancellation that mars the sonic performance of virtually every other surface-mounted speaker. DewPoints will ship to authorized THIEL dealers in fall, 2009. Price is TBD.
