James Loudspeaker QX-SPL5-CS - In Wall Dual Monaural 5" Bar

Product Overview

The James Loudspeaker QX-SPL5-CS is an in-wall dual monaural 5-inch bar with a QuadraTech quad-tweeter array, housing two independent channels in a single recessed enclosure for commercial AV rooms and home theaters that want a flush front stage with added output. As an in-wall dual monaural soundbar with larger 5-inch drivers, it supports configurations where two discrete channels share one bar while sitting nearly flush with the wall. This passive in-wall bar gives integrators channel independence, a hidden profile, and quad-tweeter detail. It targets installs that need two feeds and more driver output from one bar position.

Product Description

The QX-SPL5-CS places two independent monaural channels in one recessed in-wall enclosure built around 5-inch drivers and a QuadraTech quad-tweeter high-frequency array, each channel fed and driven separately rather than as a linked stereo pair. It operates passively, with each channel driven by its own external amplifier channel, giving integrators full control over routing, power, and processing for each feed. Recessing the bar into the wall keeps the hardware visually hidden while the larger driver complement supports more output than the 3-inch in-wall variant and the quad-tweeter array widens high-frequency dispersion. The result is a discreet, flush-mounted bar that preserves full independence between its two channels.

This in-wall design contrasts with the on-wall SPL5Q-CS dual monaural bar by recessing into the wall, and it sits above the smaller QX-SPL3-CS in-wall bar with larger drivers. Additional models are available in the James Loudspeaker collection through Creation Networks.

Key Features

• In-Wall Dual Monaural Design — Two fully independent channels in a single recessed enclosure.
• 5-Inch Drivers — Larger driver complement supports added output versus the 3-inch in-wall variant.
• QuadraTech Quad-Tweeter Array — Four-tweeter high-frequency array broadens detail and dispersion across the room.
• Flush In-Wall Mounting — Recesses into the wall for a hidden, low-visual-impact front stage.
• Passive Operation — Each channel is driven by its own external amplifier channel for full system control.

Typical Applications

• Dual-zone or split-feed audio from a single in-wall position
• Home theaters and media rooms wanting a flush, hidden bar with more output
• In-wall installs requiring channel independence near a display
• Commercial AV spaces with discrete two-feed and low-profile requirements

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the QX-SPL5-CS in-wall or on-wall?
It is an in-wall bar that recesses into the wall for a flush, hidden profile.

What does dual monaural mean here?
It means two fully independent channels share one enclosure, rather than being linked as a stereo pair.

How is the QX-SPL5-CS powered?
It is passive and requires two channels of external amplification, one per channel.

How does it differ from the QX-SPL3-CS?
It uses larger 5-inch drivers for added output while keeping the same in-wall, independent two-channel concept.

What is the QuadraTech quad-tweeter array?
It is a four-tweeter high-frequency array that broadens detail and dispersion across the room.
