Leon’s newest member of its popular Terra LuminSound TrLs50 collection, the 32-inch-tall Terra LuminSound Bollard rises above the landscape.
Ann Arbor, MI – Building off its popular Terra LuminSound outdoor speaker portfolio, Leon Speakers adds a new taller model to the line. The Terra LuminSound Bollard speaker features the same handcrafted components and built-in low-voltage lighting as the shorter landscape version but stands taller, thanks to a 21-inch aircraft-grade aluminum base. At an overall height of 32 inches and available with both halo and adjustable pathway lighting, the Terra LuminSound Bollard beautifully defines and enhances any outdoor residential or commercial environment.
“As we all continue spending more time outside, Leon wants to give integrators more design options that add audiovisual ambiance to a wide range of exterior settings,” says Noah Kaplan, Leon Speakers Founder and President. “Featuring premium customizable powder coat finishes, the Terra LuminSound Bollard adds exceptional sound and style to pathways, rooftops, outdoor kitchens and more.”
Incorporating audio and lighting in one compact, IP67-rated waterproof enclosure, the Terra LuminSound Bollard delivers high-fidelity sound from a sleek, customizable package designed and built to withstand even the harshest of climates. It’s available with commercial-grade LED lighting that can be adjusted upward or downward to illuminate pathways, landscaping and architectural details. The speakers blend discreetly into a variety of regional landscapes thanks to a choice of seven different finishes—Black, Satin White, Light Sand, Hammertone Silver, Slate Grey, Dark Bronze and Satin Terracotta. Hardscape mounting is the preferred installation method for the Bollard model, and like all Terra products, it is handcrafted in the USA and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. The Terra LuminSound Bollard is sold individually, starting at a suggested retail price of $1,900 without lighting and $2,000 with lighting.

Leon delivers design-friendly AV solutions to corporate environments with two custom options that beautifully conceal videoconferencing systems for optimal functionality.
Ann Arbor, MI – Leon Speakers is helping systems integrators strengthen their presence and bring more value to their corporate clients by offering AV storage solutions custom-designed for easy and beautifully installed video conferencing equipment. With more and more companies adopting hybrid work strategies, thoughtfully integrated video conferencing equipment has become crucial to effective communication and collaboration. Leon’s Tonecase Fit Universal (TcFIT-U) and Horizon Fit Interactive (HiFIT) fulfill this need. Both of these handcrafted units, which mount discreetly to the bottom of a display, are designed to house small format video conferencing cameras and all-in-one video conferencing devices from leading manufacturers including Bose, Logitech, Crestron, and others. Featuring a signature Leon custom grille built to match the exact width of a display, the TcFIT-U and HiFIT blend into the design and décor of corporate conference rooms, executive offices and other commercial environments.
“Building on the success of our TcFIT, we wanted to provide AV integrators with a design solution that could add style to any video conferencing system without any compromise of functionality,” says Noah Kaplan, Leon Founder and President. “It has always been our vision to blend design with technology, and our TcFIT-U and HiFIT expand this vision to commercial settings.”
TcFIT-U Customized for Leading Video Conferencing Systems
Developed with versatility in mind, TcFIT-U is available in several models to accommodate a choice of videoconferencing solutions from Bose, Logitech, Crestron, and others. It mounts directly to any display up to 98” diagonal using one of Leon’s undermount brackets, and the entire unit is covered with a custom-width fabric grille that comes standard in black with the option to upgrade to a collection of designer grille fabrics. The TcFIT-U can be integrated with Leon’s Edge Media Frame, a product that encases a TV and soundbar or TcFIT-U with a contemporary frame that is available in a selection of wood and metallic finishes.
Horizon Interactive FIT Comes with Hi-Fi Speakers
Leon’s Horizon Interactive FIT (HIFIT) provides attractive, functional storage space for all the necessary videoconferencing components such as web cams, mini PCs, and more. High-fidelity speakers are built into the unit which is outfitted with a grille handcrafted to match the width of a display and a custom cut-out for a video conferencing camera. Mounted below the display, the Horizon Interactive FIT creates a unified design aesthetic. The HIFIT features two (2) 4″ woofers and two (2) 28mm tweeters which flank an internal storage area. Fully customizable, HIFIT is only 2.75” deep and available in two models: HIFIT44UX to accommodate TVs up to 65” diagonal and HIFIT44UX-OS for screens up to 90” diagonal.

FrameBar from Leon comes in two models and four finishes to blend in seamlessly with The Frame TV.
Ann Arbor, MI – While consumers love how Samsung’s The Frame looks more like an art piece than a TV, integrators have often struggled with how to add high-end audio to the installation. Leading soundbar manufacturer Leon Speakers puts an end to the design dilemma with FrameBar, a discreet, ultra-thin soundbar designed to match the width and finish of The Frame TV, providing enhanced audio and an unobtrusive aesthetic.
“Our dealers have been asking us to design an audio solution for The Frame since it first hit the market and we’re excited to offer a soundbar that was exclusively designed to pair with it,” says Noah Kaplan, Leon Founder and President. “We know that the appeal of The Frame TV is that it doesn’t look like a TV at all, so it was important to our design team to give FrameBar an ultra-modern look with multiple finish options while also keeping the design as minimalistic as possible.”
FrameBar is available in 2 models and is built to match the exact width of any model of The Frame TV 43” and larger. A variation of Leon’s popular HzUT soundbar, FrameBar features 2.5” audiophile-grade woofers and 22mm cloth-dome tweeters in an ultra-thin cabinet only 2.375” deep that mounts flush to the wall. FrameBar comes in a variety of finishes to match The Frame finishes offered by Samsung by color and year released, and it features flat moulding with an exposed cabinet edge on the front of the soundbar. While FrameBar ships standard with a black fabric grille cloth, there is the option to upgrade to a collection of designer grille fabrics to give the installation an even more customized look.

Select artwork screen printed on Leon’s collection of Ente SoundTile speaker grilles beautifully conceals on-wall speakers.
Ann Arbor, MI – As a company with strong roots in the arts, Leon is always looking for innovative ways to add an artistic twist to high-fidelity loudspeakers and soundbars. Leon demonstrates the natural harmony that exists between fine art and immersive audio with its design-forward Ente SoundTiles. This unique product transforms a traditional stereo system into a modern piece of wall art, seamlessly blending art and audio into residential and commercial environments. Each Ente SoundTile conceals two channels of reference-grade audio and an amplifier behind a perforated metal speaker grille that is screen printed with select artwork.
The SoundTiles can be arranged in a variety of ways; as a single piece of art, a pair of art prints, or as a triptych. A single tile also comes in two size options, the original 36” x 36” square or a new size format, a 12” wide by 36” tall rectangular tile.
New to the Ente SoundTile is the latest Artist Edition collection by visual artist Chris Saunders. Commissioned for Leon’s 25th Anniversary, the Soundwave Series features four unique pieces by Saunders—each representing a different genre of music through a visual exploration of symmetry and sound.
“Our growing collection of Ente SoundTiles reflects Leon’s support of up-and-coming artists from around the globe and the prosperity of systems integrators. It brings two very different professions together, culminating in a product that enhances any home or business environment with two diverse yet complementary artforms,” says Noah Kaplan, Leon Speakers founder and president. “Ente SoundTile pushes the boundaries, offering the integration community a unique way to add audio and art to any space, and effectively adding one more design-forward option for their clients.”
