Overview
AM-1 is entirely sealed, in order to keep the elements at bay. It’s tough and hard-wearing too, and its clever one-piece mounting system with 220-degree rotation means it’s ready to perform wherever you want it to, come rain or shine.

Easy to install, great to listen to
A one-plug, simple-to-install mounting system means AM-1 is happy vertically or horizontally. Plus, smart engineering means AM-1 sounds great whichever way you choose to mount it.

Specified and built without compromise
With our trademark Nautilus tube-loaded 25mm aluminium dome tweeter and 130mm glassfibre mid/bass driver supplemented by an auxiliary bass radiator for solid, powerful bass response, AM-1 has sound and scale way beyond its compact dimensions.
