Atlas Sound SM82T 8" 2-Way Weather-Resistant Speaker
The Atlas Sound SM82T is an 8" weather-resistant surface mount commercial speaker for indoor/outdoor use designed for accurate speech intelligibility and music reproduction. The UV-resistant, salt spray tested, environment-resistant SM Series loudspeaker systems offer quality sound reproduction and contemporary styling in a compact enclosure. System components consist of a highly efficient woofer section and FerroFluid cooled titanium dome high-frequency device. Vocal and musical clarity are optimized by the mathematically conceived, advanced design of the Atlas Sound TRX Control WaveGuide™ high-frequency director. This design provides smooth, even sound coverage (65˚H x 65˚V). The high-frequency section is symmetrical, for equal coverage in both vertical and horizontal cabinet mounting positions. The Atlas Sound PolyGuard™ protection circuit provides high-frequency component protection. To withstand the harshest environments, the Strategy Series SM82T surface-mount loudspeakers are constructed of weather-resistant materials: UV-resistant, talc impregnated, polypropylene injection molded cabinets; HYCONE treated paper woofer cones; powder-coated aluminum grilles and all brass hardware.
The Strategy Series speaker systems include a versatile, yet simple, C-bracket designed to provide easy vertical or horizontal installation on just about any surface. A 5/8"-27 threaded hole is provided on the C-bracket to allow the SM82T speaker to be mounted on any Atlas Sound microphone stand for nearfield live sound applications. Four, 4 1/4" x 2" OC brass inserts are also provided on the rear of the SM82T to accommodate OMNIMOUNT™ 30 series brackets. (Model 30.0 WB recommended for wall mounting) All inserts for mounting knobs are standard 1/4" - 20 to allow easy substitution of off-the-shelf vandal-proof Torx head or "one-way" hardware. Input connectors include a two-pole barrier strip with wire capture "caps" capable of accepting up to two #16AWG cables. 0.94, 1.9, 3.7, 7.5, 15, 30 and 60-watt taps, plus a transformer bypass setting for direct-coupled 8Ω operation are screwdriver selectable via a sealed switch located near the input section on the rear of the cabinet. A tongue-in-groove cover with rubber wire exit grommet is provided to protect the input connections and transformer switch assembly from moisture. Systems are available in black or white and may be painted to accommodate any architectural considerations.
