The high-performance outdoor audio and lighting company Coastal Source is shipping of its full line of patent-pending outdoor hardscape Razor speakers that made their debut back at CEDIA Expo 2023 in Denver in September.
“As important as this product introduction is, the business opportunity it creates for our dealer partners is even more important,” states Coastal Source Co-Founder and CEO Franco D’Ascanio. “Razor expands the Coastal Source sound experience to an entirely new range of hardscape outdoor applications that create a new revenue source for our partners. Expanding opportunities for our partners is central to our long-term growth strategy and Razor represents the first of several new introductions that will soon create additional exciting new opportunities.”
Razor Speakers Recognized by Custom Installation Industry
Coastal Source points out that following the product line’s introduction back in September a number of industry organizations, including HTSA, awarded the Razor line of products with awards.
“Razor is all about setting new standards for innovation and installer-centric design that defy the elements in every respect,” comments D’Ascanio. “Drawing on our years of outdoor experience, we have designed these low-profile architectural speakers to be rugged enough for outdoors and refined enough for indoors. We are truly gratified by the response from our partners to this important new line introduction.”
Explaining the product line in greater detail, the N.J.-based manufacturer says Razor speakers are designated by three series sizes—Razor 100, 200, and 300 Series–and eight models—satellite, 2.5-way, 3-way, high power 3-way, stereo soundbar, LCR soundbar, line source, and quad-driver subwoofer.

According to the company, its Razor speakers are the first line of outdoor wall and hardscape speakers built with true high performance in mind. Designed to provide high levels of performance in a slim form factor, Razor modular speakers are engineered to deliver quality audio from a slim profile speaker system that elegantly disappears into the background. Through the products design, Coastal Source continues, integrators can install the line of products in locations such as walls, decks, as well as horizontal and vertical corners.
Coastal Source also notes the fully modular construction of the product line allows for numerous applications and performance levels with options for bi-amped subwoofer/satellite configurations along with tri-amped solutions that utilize external subwoofers. Integrated and universal mounting brackets for surface, corner, hanging, ganging, and post mounting are included.
The company adds the Razor speakers are available in a choice of white or black finishes, and its new Razor speakers are designed with high-quality aluminum enclosures with built-in aluminum grilles.
Moreover, Razor Speakers boast custom-designed, engineered, and optimized ultra-shallow drivers to provide high levels of performance from a slim enclosure. As part of the speakers’ driver arrays, Coastal Source emphasizes the speakers utilize its Acoustic Fractal Waveguide tweeter bridge that is said to dramatically improves clarity and efficiency.
