With an ultra-slim profile and wall-ready design, the Canton Atelier 1100 brings concert-level dynamics into a space-conscious package. Its refined enclosure stays flush to the wall, delivering a nearly invisible presence while still offering a deep, engaging sound. At less than 10 cm in depth, this wall speaker disappears into the room, and the integrated mounting brackets simplify alignment. For an even more discreet installation, the supplied installation kit allows flush in-wall mounting, with the speaker standing out from the wall by just 2 cm.
Architected as a three-way system in D'Appolito alignment, the Atelier 1100 centers its performance around two 174 mm bass-midrange drivers with aluminum cones. A robust magnet and a carefully engineered suspension combine to deliver dynamic, controlled bass and articulate midrange. Two equally sized passive aluminum cones extend the low end, enabling bass down to 32 Hz without sacrificing clarity in the midrange or highs. The front panel houses a 25 mm aluminum-manganese tweeter with an integrated waveguide for precise, evenly dispersed highs.
Designed for discreet installation, the speaker ships with integrated wall brackets that permit horizontal or vertical mounting, making it suitable as a stereo pair or as a center channel. The satin-finished frame surrounds a sound-neutral fabric grille, creating a refined appearance that hides the technology while emphasizing clean lines. The included installation kit enables a near-invisible in-wall integration, with the enclosure protruding only 2 cm from the surface when flush-mounted.
Sound-wise, the Atelier 1100 presents a balanced, coherent soundstage with clear imaging and a generous sense of space. The two large woofer drivers deliver scale and authority, while the tweeter and waveguide ensure detailed, airy highs without harshness. The combination of the D'Appolito layout and the long-throw woofers yields precise transitions between bass, mids, and highs, resulting in a natural, immersive listening experience across a wide range of genres and multimedia applications.
Perfect for living rooms, home theaters, and media walls where space is at a premium, the Atelier 1100 blends high performance with subtle presence. It pairs well with high-quality amplifiers and compatible front-end components to create a capable, room-filling system whether you are listening to electroacoustic textures, streaming jazz, or cinematic soundscapes. In short, it is a flexible, well-built option for those who demand refined acoustic performance without compromising interior design.
