High Performance Outdoor Loudspeaker Systems
4" 2-way weatherproof loudspeakers & 10" in-ground/on-ground subwoofer
NEARSCAPES™ systems are convenient and cost effective ways to get unobtrusive, super high performance sound into your outdoor living spaces. These “satellite/subwoofer” systems boast high clarity at any volume, deep articulate bass, and ultra-low distortion.

Best of all, the wide dispersion of the LB4TM satellites means fewer speakers are needed to cover an area with high clarity sound with NEARSCAPES than with similar competing systems. With a properly configured NEARSCAPES system every listener in the listening area will hear full-performance sound without overly loud “hot” and low-fidelity “dead” zones.
The NEARSCAPES 2.1 system evenly covers a 1500 square foot area (140m2) area when driven by 100W/channel, while the 4.1 system covers 3000 square feet (280m2) with 200 WPC power.

Installation Ease
|
NEARSCAPES™ systems include easy to use ball and socket aim-able brackets that allow you to mount the LB4TM satellite speakers on walls, soffits, railings or fence posts. They also include GS4 ground stakes for mounting in gardens and lawns.
The IGS10 subwoofer can be used freestanding or partly buried in the ground for minimum visibility and maximum bass performance. |
Ground stakes are supplied with NEARSCAPES systems

LB4TM Satellite Speaker
The NEAR® LB4TM all-environment loudspeaker is elegantly designed, rugged to the extreme and a snap to install. The LB4TM employs a ball and socket "signature" mounting system combined with a pre-terminated totally waterproof input connector. This mounting system minimizes installation effort and reduces “ladder time” to improve installation efficiency and safety. The LB4TM utilizes a 4-inch MDT/MLS woofer with a 1-inch titanium inverted dome tweeter for perfectly life-like sound dispersed evenly over a wide area.
This version of the LB4 differs from the LB4T in its color (mulch brown) and its low impedance bypass rating of 16 Ohms. It is the ideal speaker to use when using multiple pairs driven by a low-impedance output amplifier (non-70V).
Like other NEAR speakers, the LB4TM is truly weather-proof, not just “weather-resistant” and can be used totally exposed to the elements. The LB4TM enclosure is color-through, mica-loaded polypropylene that sheds moisture, dirt and chemicals. The UV inhibitor pigments are embedded uniformly throughout the material so the sun won’t fade or yellow the color and garden tools won’t easily mar their looks.
The LB4TM can be painted to match the surroundings. The color-matched grilles are oxidation-resistant heavy gauge powder coated aluminum with rectangular perforations that inhibit water from clogging the holes and blocking high frequencies. The bass port is protected from moisture, debris and critter ingress with a special hydrophobic fabric. All NEAR LB series models are backed by an exceptional 12 year warranty. Superior SoundBest of all is the sound quality. The LB4TM's wide dispersion design and high tech components ensure that everyone on the deck or patio hears well-balanced, lifelike sound at every volume level without fatigue.
The LB4TM utilizes an MDT metal alloy diaphragm woofer with a 1-inch titanium inverted dome tweeter along with the Magnetic Liquid Suspension (MLS) technology patented by New England Audio Resource in 1993. These are the same materials and technologies employed throughout the LB Series to ensure timbre consistency and system design flexibility. 
The “ribs” molded into LB series enclosures are more than mere decoration. This patented innovation (D432522) serves to stiffen the enclosure and break up panel resonance for pure and undistorted sound.
