Portrait LCR. Along with its counterparts, the LRS In-Wall and On-Wall Surrounds and RCC
Freestanding Subwoofer.
• In 2006 and 2007 Artison introduced a complete offering of high performance RCC In-Wall and
Freestanding Subwoofers to complement the LCR Series and LRS Surrounds.

7. The Press Speaks
“Performance validates technology”
“Overall, the Masterpiece LCR system sounds comparable to, and in some respects
better than, the best like-priced floor standing or stand-mount surround systems I’ve
heard.” Chris Martens – The Perfect Vision
“I consider the RCC 600 to be the first truly high-performance in-wall subwoofer.”
Brent Butterworth – Home Entertainment
“If looks, elegance, and a svelte layout are as important to you as
sonics, I’d recommend looking at – and listening to – the Portrait
system in a New York minute.”
Daniel Kumin – Sound & Vision
