MULTIZONE
Niles brings Innovation Home
For over 35 years, the custom installation industry has turned to Niles for high
performance, application-specific products. This is especially true in multi-zone
audio. Our first consumer products—a four–pair speaker selector box and
a patching matrix—were relatively simple devices, but in retrospect they
were the precursors to today’s sophisticated multi-zone systems.
Throughout its history, Niles has always been at the forefront
of multi-zone innovation.

Today, the Niles Auriel ecosystem and system
integration amplifiers deliver solutions for audio
projects of all sizes, from single-room
home theaters to large multi-room
installations.

MRC-6430 MULTI-ROOM AUDIO
Transform any home into an enviable oasis.
Niles Auriel™ MRC-6430 is the next generation whole home audio controller that puts up to six distinct music sources at the user’s
fingertips to easily play different music in up to six rooms. Powered by the Niles Auriel software and app, the MRC-6430 is the
first-in-its-class multi-room audio chassis that integrates multi-room audio, home theater, climate, and lighting control in
a way that is both simple for the installer to set up and easy for the homeowner to enjoy. Set-up is integrator-friendly;
through the Auriel Wizard and a tablet or PC, the installer is whisked through simple decisions that quickly configure
the system for sources, zone preferences, user interface and home theater control. For larger homes, two
MRC-6430s can be paired to create a six-source, 12-zone system. Additionally, all zones are equipped
with fixed or variable pre-outs, making it easy to add power and volume with Niles System Integration
Amplifiers®. An optional Niles DBI-2 interface enables homeowners to route their doorbell through the
system, which temporarily mutes music so that the doorbell can be clearly heard in every room.
Users enjoy that the intuitive user interface renders identically across devices and can
be managed from the nHR200 handheld remote, nKP7 keypad or nTP7/nTP4
touch panel, as well as the iPhone®, iPad® and Android® phones & tablets,
and Windows® or Mac® computers. Once again, Niles has redefined
whole home audio.

THE CLASSICS REINVENTED
Power, Stability &
Installation Friendly Features
Niles Systems Integration Amplifiers® are renowned for delivering superb sound and reliability along with feature sets that are
tailored to the needs of the custom installer. This powerful line consists of a 16-channel, 12-channel and three 2-channel
models—covering the gamut of configurations, power requirements and price points. With installer-friendly features including
new web-browser configuration, high output/bridgeable mode, and a BusMatrix Selector ®, the line offers capabilities to
allow installers to adapt to any installation. By including features like multi-speaker stability, multiple turn-on modes,
and independent level controls. From a single zone or an entire home, there’s a Niles Systems Integration Amplifier
for the job.

FEATURES
WEB BASED IP CONFIGURATION

MULTIPLE TURN-ON MODES

The SI-1650’s Web browser configuration tool allows you to
assign any of the 16 inputs or combination of inputs to any
channel output for ultimate control. The configuration tool
also gives you precise line level audio controls, output
presets, selectable high output modes; any stereo pair to a
single 100W high power channel (8ch, 100W per/ch) and
selectable high pass and low pass filter for use with
subwoofers. Additionally you can save your settings to use
on your next installation, saving you time and money every
time you install one.

Three turn-on modes provide both reliability and flexibility
when configuring the amplifier to power on and off. They
include music sense, voltage trigger and manual mode.

FREEDOM FROM NOISE AND CROSS-TALK
Niles incorporates advanced PCB construction ensuring
extremely high channel to channel isolation. Signal to noise
ratios and cross-talk are equivalent to a professional mixing
board found in a recording studio.

CURRENT FOR REACTIVE LOADS
The high current design of the Niles System Integration
Amplifiers assures that even unusual and reactive loads are
handled with ease.

INDEPENDENT LEVEL CONTROLS
Installer-adjustable level controls for every channel are
provided.

CHANNEL BRIDGING
Increase output power for demanding loads and highsound-pressure levels.

THE BUSMATRIX® SELECTOR

TRANSPARENT SOUND

Each channel has a selection of four options: left bus,
right bus, left plus right bus (summed stereo), or the
channel’s dedicated input . The BusMatrix® Selector is
now configurable via a web browser in the SI-1650.

The audio circuitry of the Niles System Integration Amplifiers
is constructed using the finest parts available; including 1%
metal film resistors, high quality capacitors, and oversized
heat sinks. All this attention to technical detail creates a
sound that is clear and uncolored with phenomenal imaging.

APPLICATION-SPECIFIC DESIGN
INDOOR APPLICATIONS
From basic background listening to multiroom systems, you can
be assured that there is always a Niles speaker to match your
needs. Whether you prefer In-Wall or In-Ceiling, shallow depth
or 4” options, or 6.5” compact subwoofers, Niles has a quality
solution for you. And, our new Ceiling-Mount loudspeakers have
been re-engineered for better performance and for aesthetics
as well. We have ultra-low-profile round and square grilles to
retrofit rear-wave-enclosures designed to reduce sound transfer
to adjacent rooms.

HOME THEATER APPLICATIONS
Home Theater is an essential addition to your home and cannot
be ignored. That’s why we make sure to provide Home Theater
specific loudspeakers. Building a 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound
environment has never been easier. Choose any of our 7” or 8”
PR or HD models for your Left/Center/Right channels. Each LCR
has features to enhance the sound for the position they are in.
Then add any FX speaker to complete the ambiance portion of
your system, and you’re done. Directional Soundfield™ speakers
are particularly well-suited for Home Theater because of their
ability to direct the sound towards the listeners from above.

OUTDOOR APPLICATIONS
Outdoor is an exciting and growing category and Niles has always
been a leader in providing professional Outdoor solutions to
custom installers around the world. Our philosophy is the same,
solve the problem by providing unique application-specific models
to suit our CI’s needs, and delight their customers. From Rocks
to Planters, On-Wall to In-Ground, Niles outdoor loudspeakers
are built like tanks and perform gracefully under extreme weather
conditions.

A REDEFINING MOMENT
The DS Directed Soundfield™
Ceiling-Mount Loudspeaker
When Niles presented the first Directed Soundfield™ (DS) loudspeakers in 2001 at CEDIA Expo in Indianapolis, everyone
was astounded by the performance and versatility they provided. People quickly agreed that the unique design with fully
adjustable, independent pivoting woofer and tweeter enabled DS loudspeakers to re-create high-fidelity sound accurately,
regardless of where in the ceiling they were located. Ever since then, tens of thousands of DS loudspeakers have
been delighting customers in distributed audio and home theater systems around the world. But it was bound to
happen—we have created a new version of DS that does even more!
The result is our latest generation of Directed Soundfield loudspeakers—they ingeniously combine design
aesthetics, advanced technology, and installation versatility to address the challenges professional
system integrators face today. These challenges include seamless integration with high-design décor,
containing unwanted sound from bleeding into other rooms, and lifelike sonic quality not available
from conventional loudspeakers. To do this, we took the best ideas from the original DS design
architecture and infused them with significant and innovative new features.
The features include magnetically attached MicroThin™ speaker grilles for a clean,
designer appearance, and an optional Rear Wave Control enclosure that significantly
reduces the sound bleed into adjacent rooms. Also included is a spring-tensioned
mounting clamp system that tightly secures the loudspeaker—even if the
mounting surface expands or contracts.

BENEFITS OF GOOD DESIGN
CREATE THE IDEAL LISTENING ENVIRONMENT
Patented Directed Soundfield™ technology directs the sound to the listening area, regardless of where the loudspeakers
are installed.

UNOBTRUSIVE APPEARANCE
Rustproof MicroThin™ loudspeaker grilles mount flush to the ceiling or wall to seamlessly blend with the room’s décor.

SUPERB SOUND QUALITY
IMPACT (Improved Aluminum Ceramic Technology) woofers and tweeters and other advanced materials ensure superb sound
resolution.

MATCH ROOM COLORS AND AESTHETICS
MicroThin speaker grilles can be painted to coordinate with any décor. Choose from round (included) or square (optional)
grilles.

HIGHER OUTPUT, LOWER DISTORTION
Precision crossover networks, copper shorting caps, and Kapton voice coil formers easily handle the demands of digital
music and home theater.

INSTALL WITH CONFIDENCE
Patent-pending, spring-tensioned mounting clamps simplify installation and compensate for expanding and contracting
mounting surfaces.

The optional Rear Wave
enclosure improves sound
performance while reducing
unwanted sound from bleeding
into adjacent rooms.
Rear Wave Enclosure Sound Isolation*
50 - 500 Hz ........................ -16dB
500 - 2,000 Hz ................... -37dB
2,000 - 20,000 Hz .............. -25dB
*In typical installations.

MicroThin™ grilles attach magnetically for
a clean, unobstrusive look. Optional square
grilles provide added design flexibility.

CM SERIES
Introducing the CM Series of Ceiling-Mount Loudspeakers
Niles didn’t become The First Name in Custom Installation® overnight. Over 35 years in the industry has shown our customers
that the key to our success has been our Application-Specific Design Philosophy – loudspeakers that are designed for a specific
purpose and organized based upon logical groupings and functions. The new CM Series takes that idea even further. As a
complement to our highly-acclaimed DS Loudspeaker models, you can now offer your customers a complete loudspeaker
assortment that is simple to sell, simple to install and offers easy options for both retrofits and system upgrades.
When developing this new CM Series, we took care to integrate many of the great features of our incredible
DS models, from the stylish round or optional square MicroThin™ grilles that disappear into the décor to the
advanced driver technology of our UltraSilk®, Teteron® and top-of-the-line nano-coated IMPACT (Improved
Aluminum Ceramic Technology) woofers and tweeters. All of this comes together in each model to deliver
the defined bass, silky-smooth mid-ranges and crisp vocals you have come to expect from Niles.
With our CM series, you now have even more options to select the best speaker for each particular
function and location in a home. System designers can now specify a single cutout hole size
and have a full range of application-specific loudspeakers.
Imagine how much simpler it will be as a system designer or as an installer if you
know that you can go to any home and use a single hole size in every speaker
location. With that simple step, you are now ready to install from any of the
Niles application-specific models to get just the right one for each location.
Even better, upgrading any of the locations to a different model is now as
easy as can be with a full range of models all using the same hole size.
Last-minute changes from your customers don’t have to cost your

BENEFITS OF GOOD DESIGN
SIMPLE TO SPECIFY, SIMPLE TO INSTALL
By specifying a single cutout hole size, you are free to install any of a full range of application-specific models. Changing or
upgrading a model after the hole has been cut no longer means extra work for your installation crew.

UNOBTRUSIVE APPEARANCE
Rustproof MicroThin™ loudspeaker grilles mount flush to the ceiling or wall to seamlessly blend with the room’s décor.

MATCH ROOM COLORS AND AESTHETICS
MicroThin speaker grilles can be painted to coordinate with any décor.
Choose from round (included) or square (optional) grilles.

HIGHER OUTPUT, LOWER DISTORTION
Precision crossover networks, copper shorting caps, and Kapton® voice coil formers easily handle the demands of digital
music and home theater.

APPLICATION
SPECIFIC
MODELS
Our CM4PR is designed for small rooms, closets,
hallways, or alcoves where traditional loudspeakers
just won’t fit. Its round (or optional square) MicroThin™
grille matches that of all of our other CM and DS
models and its custom Rear Wave Enclosure will keep
any unwanted sound from penetrating into adjoining
spaces.
Our CM7SD Shallow Depth loudspeaker can be
installed in a ceiling that is only 2-1/8” deep! Its
powder-coated steel cover not only protects it during
installation in tight spaces but also helps to minimize
sound penetration into adjoining areas, which can be a
real problem in specialized ceiling installations like in a
multi-dwelling unit.
Whatever your application or need, Niles makes the
loudspeaker that will help you delight your customers!

SELECTION, PERFORMANCE,
AND INSTALLABILITY
Niles In-Wall Loudspeakers Have It All
With 6 different models, each engineered to address a specific application; Niles has the right in-wall loudspeaker for any
system you can install. Each one has different features and performance characteristics to satisfy varying conditions such as
sound quality, placement, room size, or room acoustics.
For example, our exclusive tweeter housing ratchets in 1 mm increments to precisely direct the high frequencies
into the listening area. Baffle-mounted bass and treble tone controls let you compensate for less-than-ideal room
anomalies and speaker placement. Another installer-friendly touch is the standard snap-in loudspeaker baffle
that saves time and facilitates quick service while maintaining an unbroken paint seal.
And don’t forget the famous Niles Limited Lifetime Warranty. Our In-Wall Loudspeakers are so robust
that when you install them, you know they’ll stay installed—for years to come.

For application-specific solutions, easy
installation, and legendary quality and
reliability, look no further than Niles Audio.
Our integrated woofer/baffle provides a
deeper, richer bass than similarly sized
competitor’s models.

CORNERS BEAUTIFULLY,
EVEN IN THE ELEMENTS
OS Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers
Niles OS Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers are designed to deliver great sound indoors and out. Every model in the line is
equipped to handle the most extreme conditions—from blazing sun in Miami to blizzards in Minneapolis. In fact, these
rugged loudspeakers even surpass military anti-corrosion standards (MIL-STD-883D). But great build quality is nothing
without great sound. And that’s why the OS series is the best-selling loudspeaker line in its class.
By integrating the woofer basket into the baffle of the cabinet (a design we pioneered in our award-winning DS
Directed Soundfield™ loudspeakers) we are able to increase the woofer cone area to cabinet width area
ratio. This enables Niles OS Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers to provide levels of bass performance that
substantially exceed their physical size.
The architecturally friendly design and integrated mounting bracket enable OS Indoor/Outdoor
Loudspeakers to tuck discretely away in corners and under eaves. And even when used
outdoors, every single model is backed by our Lifetime Limited Warranty. You can install
the OS Series confidently knowing that they will perform brilliantly—for a lifetime.

APPLICATIONS FOR OUTDOOR LOUDSPEAKERS

This guideline may sound simple, but it’s amazing how often
it’s ignored. By positioning the loudspeakers between 12’

12’ (3.7m)

Position Loudspeakers Between
12’ to 15’ of the Listening Area

12’ (3.7m)

DESIGN TIP #1

(3.7m) to 15’ (4.7m) of the listening area, you provide quality
sound for the listeners at comfortable volume levels, without
the need for huge amounts of amplifier power.

DESIGN TIP #2
More Loudspeakers Are Better
Than More Power
When you have an oversized or a particularly large outdoor
space, it’s always better to add more loudspeakers than more
power. In this Design Tip, we’ll start with the same listening
area from Design Tip #1, but we’ll add a pool area that’s
30’ (9m) away. You could boost the amplifier power so the
patio speakers play loud enough to reach the pool, but that
would be too loud for those people on the patio. The better
solution is more speakers to evenly distribute the sound at
comfortable volume levels.

DESIGN TIP #3
Provide Independent Volume Controls
for each Listening Area
Ideally, each listening area should be equipped with a way to
adjust the volume. Installing a keypad or volume control for
each listening area adds that extra flexibility to the outdoor
space. By providing independent volume controls for each
space, people sitting at the table can adjust the music to a
comfortable level, while the swimmers in the pool can enjoy
the music at a different volume level.

WHEN ENTERTAINING
MOVES OUTDOORS
Rock and Planter Loudspeakers
Rugged good looks and natural sound make Niles’ GeoRealistic™ Rock and Planter Loudspeakers the professionals’ choice
for outdoor music applications. We achieved our leadership role by offering a wide range of models and finishes designed
to blend into virtually any outdoor environment. Our popular Rocks are available in granite, speckled granite, coral,
sandstone, and shale brown, while our Planters (and yes, you can really use them as planters) come in terracotta and
weathered concrete finishes.
We spent a lot of time making them look good. But it’s the way they sound that really makes GeoRealistic™
loudspeakers special. For example, our ConeForward™ design positions the drivers close to the grille
to markedly improve midrange intelligibility. Our PS6Si Planter features an innovative movable tweeter
assembly that adjusts the sound dispersion from 180º for placement in open areas, to 90º for

High-Fidelity Wideband IR Extender Systems

Niles offers the most advanced line of IR extender systems on the market today. Our IR Sensors have been
redesigned to make them compatible with a new generation of IR code formats found on many new high-definition,
multimedia source devices. The sensors feature a high-fidelity wideband amplifier that can accurately pass
these IR code formats, Philips RCMM codes. In addition, a patent–pending Universal Noise Suppression
design effectively eliminates IR interference from plasmas, LCDs, and CFL lighting while maintaining
signal integrity. This two-stage technology combines an optical noise filter with a “smart” electronic
circuit to provide consistent, reliable control. Best of all, these advanced technologies are found
in each new Niles IR Sensor. Niles IR enables fast, predictable installations in any environment,
without the added cost of carrying specialized inventory.

WALL-MOUNT CAT-5 BALUNS
Add Mix & Match Versatility To Our Lineup
Niles CAT-5 Baluns simplify installations, provide additional flexibility, and reduce costs wherever long cable runs are required.
Niles CAT-5 Baluns also make it possible to expand systems in homes and buildings already wired with CAT-5 cable. Used
in pairs, every Niles Balun was designed with a specific application in mind: from sending analog audio to an upstairs
bedroom, to sending HDMI signals across the house to the family room. Niles makes two versions of each balun:
a clean, low-profile wall-mount and a compact chassis style. They can be mixed and matched to create a custom
solution for any installation project. And since they’re made by Niles, you know they’re rugged and reliable.
In fact, most come with a limited ten-year warranty to ensure years of trouble-free performance.

VOLUME CONTROL SYSTEMS
Less SKUs, more features, easier to specify.
The Niles philosophy has always been, “Application Specific Design.” Our volume control offerings are a great example.
We have reduced the amount of models by including Volume Control; Installation Hardware; White, Light Almond, Bone,
and Black Wallplates; Knobs; and Decora® inserts with each model. Also, each model now has a significant design
difference, based on application, making specifying jobs easier as well as reducing your carrying costs. Then we made
each model impedance-matching, up to 100W continuous power handling, and have removable two-piece wire
connectors in addition to all the hardware you need to install the product.
This focused assortment begins with both in-wall volume controls with round knobs, in 100W and 50W
configurations (VCS100K & VCS50K), a sliding Volume Control (SVC100K) for an elegant design option,
and a tabletop model (TVC-1) with soft feet and an aluminum chassis. Then we paired down the
weatherproof options to include an in-wall (WVC100K) and a completely enclosed weatherproof
model ideal for mounting on decks and patios (VCSHUB8), we then finish the line with a
VCSHUB8 designed to expand a receiver’s stereo audio output to eight volume controls.
