FOR BUILT-IN CABINETS, A UTILITY VERSION OF
THE ACCLAIMED D7 TOWER

The unique cabinet design, placement switch and wide
dispersion tweeter of the IC D7 bring the performance of
a freestanding high-end tower to an in-cabinet bookshelf
enclosure. Conventional bookshelf loudspeakers sound
“chesty” and image poorly when used in in-cabinet
applications. The IC D7 is a 6.5-inch, D’Appolito Array,
designed by Snell chief engineer, Joe D’Appolito, to fit
into furniture and millwork, and, is tuned to compensate
for the sonic problems that these cabinet boundaries
cause. The twin 6.5-inch long throw woofers provide extended bass and plenty of output, while the 1-inch low-
resonance, silk dome tweeter enables a large sweet spot for better stereo imaging. The IC D7 uses the same
components as the Snell D7 Tower and IW D7 in-wall monitor, mounted in a robust, texture-painted enclosure. This
high output LCR can be used for Left, Center and Right or mixed and matched with these two siblings to provide clean,
impactful sound with an effortless and “airy” soundstage… perfect for music and movies.
