The Edge 5i measures 450 × 345 mm, is 36 mm thick and weighs 1.3 kg. It is designed for medium-power residential or commercial distributed audio and multi-channel surround systems. It handles 50 W continuous over 100 hours and 100 W peak, at 4 ohms.
The Edge 5i replaces a small section of plasterboard and is finished like tapered-edge board. Once taped, filled, sanded and given a thin coat of fine finishing compound, it is painted with the wall or ceiling and disappears. It can also go into an existing skim-coated wall as a retrofit, but must not be fully plastered over. Its integrated ridge gives a clean finish in taped-and-jointed walls and ceilings.
Amina's proprietary exciters rely on Optidrive, Opti-damping and Reduced Resonance Exciter technologies, combined with the ToneRelief panel design. The Edge series aims for a warm, balanced tonality. Dispersion covers 180° × 180°, sensitivity reaches 86 dB at 1 m / 2.83 Vrms and response runs from 60 Hz to 14 kHz at -6 dB.
The Edge 5i mounts in an Amina CV345 backbox, or with Mounting Blocks. Wiring uses blue butt-splice crimp terminals for 14 to 16 AWG cable. In-line protection comes from a Guardian 2, 8 or 16 unit. It can be supplied with a 100/70 V transformer for high-impedance installations.
