Snap One announced the launch of the Triad PDX Series of architectural speakers to provide its partners with a solution that pairs the premium audio performance with a simplified installation experience made possible by Push Lock by Swarm technology.

Coined “PDX” in homage to the Portland Airport — the city in which each speaker is custom-designed and engineered — the series includes thirteen speakers and nineteen accessories, including optional custom-colored grilles, rear enclosures and pre-construction brackets.

Triad PDX creates a remarkable listening experience by using high-performance materials and the finest components like carbon fiber, Kevlar, Teteron, dual voice coils, chemically etched metal components, and more. The infusion of Kevlar into carbon fiber for the woofer, to create a premium audio experience, is unique to Triad PDX and another marker of the brand’s leading position in the industry. Plus, each speaker is designed and engineered in Portland, Oregon where artistry, engineering and experience intersect to create category-defining products.

To make installation a breeze for Partners, Triad PDX uses Push Lock, an exclusive tool-less mounting solution specifically designed for Snap One. The proprietary installation technology — which is employed in Signature by Episode speakers, a Partner favorite for its simple installation — allows for an upgrade path to a more premium product by securing the speaker with the simple press of a button for the fastest and most secure installation on the market.

The two-piece baffle/speaker module assembly allows Partners to easily remove the speaker while leaving the cradle and grille in the ceiling or wall – preventing the speaker from being stolen or damaged during the construction process and allowing for HVAC pressure testing for certification of occupancy.

The series also includes helpful accessories like construction brackets that offer flexibility during a new build or install process, rear enclosures for all models that can control air volume and sound propagation to adjacent rooms, and replacement grilles for all models that can be painted and custom-ordered to match the project aesthetics.
