Ceiling Speaker VXC6/VXC6W

Architectural and Engineering Specifications

The loudspeaker shall be of in-ceiling design, a 2-way coaxial acoustic suspension type and shall have a
back can. The loudspeaker shall consist of a 6.5” (16cm) cone driver for low frequency and a 0.75” (2cm)
soft dome tweeter for high frequency. The loudspeaker shall be equipped with internal transformers that
allow both high-impedance and lowimpedance drive. The Anti-Drop tab shall be provided for improved safety
and ease of installation that allows the loudspeaker to be mounted temporarily in the ceiling. The flexible
carrying band shall be provided for improved portability. The power rating shall be set by switching a
transformer tap on the baffle as follows: 60W/30W/15W in 100V line; 60W/30W/15W/7.5W in 70V line; and
150W into 8 ohms. The loudspeaker shall be capable of meeting the following performance criteria: The
measured sensitivity shall be 86dB SPL (at 1W, 1m, in half-space); The maximum SPL shall be 111dB SPL
(at 1m); The frequency range shall be 56Hz-20kHz (10dB below rated sensitivity, in halfspace); The nominal
coverage angle shall be 110° polar conical (average 500Hz-4kHz). The loudspeaker shall be provided for an
overload protection circuit to protect network and transducers. The 4-pin Euroblock connector shall be
provided for an input and a loop-thru. The back can shall be constructed of 1mm-thick black-painted steel
and the baffle of HIPS. The grille shall be constructed of 0.6mm-thick steel and the trim ring of ABS, with an
aperture ratio of 51%. The grille shall have the following color variation: black-painted (VXC6) or white-
painted (VXC6W). Overall front face diameter of the loudspeaker shall not exceed 286mm (11.3”), overall
depth from the bottom of the ceiling shall not exceed 204mm (8.1”), and shall weigh no more than 4.4kg
(9.7lbs). The loudspeaker shall have included accessories as follows: The O-rings and the tile rails shall be
included for safer and smoother installation. The loudspeaker shall be equipped with an eyelet for secondary
safety wire usage.
The loudspeaker shall be the Yamaha VXC6 or VXC6W.
