Description
The CM800i is an 8", two-way, blind-mount in-ceiling, speaker design that delivers extended low-end response (71 Hz) and optimal off-axis performance (2-10 kHz, independently verified). SoundTube's proprietary BroadBeam¨ waveguide tweeter delivers consistent high-performance audio across the operating bandwidth. The CM800i speaker design incorporates a lowprofile grille, proprietary motor-board and six-position tap switch with transformer bypass position. Mounting hardware is included and features a fast and secure constant-tension, fixed-wing mounting system.
Features:
- Patented BroadBeam¨ waveguide technology delivers a consistent BroadBeam dispersion pattern for maximum coverage area per speaker (2-10 kHz, independently verified)
- One 8" (203 mm) polypropylene woofer and one 1" (25.4 mm) convex titanium tweeter with FerroFluid cooling mounted to a proprietary castaluminum baffle and heat sink
- Rapid installation blind-mount, fixed-wing mounting mechanism with constant-tension design affixing to ceiling thicknesses ranging from 0.25" (6.4 mm) to 1.91" (48.5 mm)
- Easy access six-position selectable tap switch for 25, 70.7, and 100 V applications with transformer bypass position
- Separate tool-free magnetic grille and bezel assembly with integrated safety cable for ease of install and in-field painting
- Steel grille with protective powder-coated finish for lasting durability
- Average sensitivity of 90 dB offers high-output capabilities and reduced amplification costs
- UL1480A and UL2043 approved
- High-quality black or white paint finish. Custom paint colors optional
- Included accessories: tile bridge, Euroblock connector, conduit plate, and paint mask
- Optional accessories: color-coded (purple) pre-construction bracket (AC-CM8-PCB), and junction box (AC-CMi-JBOX)
