Acoustic role
Proportion, performance and landscape integration
Installation type
Interior and landscape applications

An omnidirectional architectural loudspeaker with balanced proportions for interior and landscape applications. Medium Cylinder combines a 6-inch dual-concentric system with full-range and subwoofer configurations, allowing the same visual language to support different acoustic roles.

Why specify it

A 220 mm cylinder reads as a bollard rather than as a loudspeaker, which is what lets it stand in planting, along a pool edge or in an interior without asking to be hidden.

System role

Available in full-range and subwoofer configurations, so the same form can take either role in one system.

Project imagery

Materials and finishes

  • Concrete
  • Marble
  • Solid surface

Other stones and finishes available on request.

Every natural-stone body is unique. Veining, tone and surface character vary from piece to piece.

Lighting

Installation

Interior and landscape applications

This is a designed audio system

Selecting the visible loudspeaker is only one part of the work. Each project requires decisions about acoustic coverage, full-range and subwoofer roles, amplifier channels, DSP, crossover settings, cable routes, mounting, lighting and finish. Nico supports architects and designers from concept and specification through coordination, commissioning and final calibration.
