Crestron Residential Speakers Made by Origin Acoustics
The new line of Crestron Residential Speakers made by Origin Acoustics fall within two distinct performance tiers: Reference and Ultimate.
Speakers from the baseline-level Reference tier, made up of in-ceiling, in-wall, and landscape models, feature Origin’s patented silk tweeters, known for their smooth sound, and glass fiber drivers designed to produce very low distortion.
Speakers from the luxury Ultimate tier, made up of in-ceiling, in-wall, marine-grade, and landscape models are designed to offer users the best available performance and feature carbon-fiber components and ceramic-coated aluminum tweeters that optimize sound accuracy.
Crestron Residential Speakers are made with premium components to support the high output and resolution capacity of the DM NAX amplifier. Built for optimal performance right out of the box, each speaker model is architecturally constructed to disappear into a home’s design without ever sacrificing audio quality.
“Origin Acoustics is excited about the potential that the Crestron architectural speaker line and the partnership unlock for us as a brand,” said Nick Berry, CEO of Origin Acoustics. “Our goal, since the inception of Origin Acoustics, was to build the world’s finest architectural loudspeakers. The new alliance is complementary.”
Crestron DM NAX Audio-over-IP Distribution Solution

With Crestron Home integration, homeowners will gain full visibility and control of their home audio from mobile devices, touch screens, remotes, keypads, and voice-activated devices.
“In the 30 years I’ve been associated with Crestron, I’ve never been more excited about an audio product line. I can’t wait to get these products into customers’ hands,” Clancy added.
