Lowell ES-82CDT 8-inch 150W In-Ceiling Speakers

The Lowell ES-82CDT produces excellent intelligibility for speech and full-frequency response for music making it ideal for retail, commercial, industrial, institutional, and residential applications. This self-contained in-ceiling or in-wall speaker system with an 8" coaxial driver has a high-frequency horn-loaded compression driver that provides the kind of crisp, high-frequency response expected from high quality coaxial speakers. The ported enclosure is tuned for extended low-frequency response, while the controlled pattern dispersion is ideal for higher ceiling distributed speaker systems.

• Driver: 8" 150W coaxial driver
• Transformer: 120W transformer with tap selector switch mounted behind grille. Tap selections for 25V, 70V or 100V speaker systems, and 8 ohm transformer bypass position
• Enclosure:
• Factory-mounted enclosure ships attached to the driver (non-removable)
• Durable 20 gauge steel, painted grey
• Ported enclosure is tuned for extended bass response
• Built-in reversible mounting dogs aid fast installation, while allowing the speaker to be mounted in drywall, wood, tile or almost any type of ceiling with thickness up to 3.4" [86.4mm]
• Removable (4 pin) Phoenix-style connector with 2 terminals for input to speaker and 2 parallel terminals for output to next speaker in string
• Internal volume = 900 cu.in.
• Baffle: Low-profile front baffle formed from UV-rated high impact plastic
• Grille: Fine mesh press-fit grille (white) includes scrim and pull tool
• Installation Aids: (included)
• C-Ring: Reinforces the edge of drywall ceiling cut-outs and works with the support rails to uphold the weight of the speaker assembly
• Support Rails (2): Rails are used with the C-ring to uphold the weight of the speaker assembly and help prevent sagging tiles when the speaker is installed in a lay-in tile ceiling
• Template: Cardboard template is used to properly mark cut-outs for mounting holes
• Paint Shield: Plastic shield fits over the driver to protect it if the baffle is to be painted
• Installation Aids: (optional, order separately)
• #ES-8-RIB Rough-in Bridge: For new construction (drywall or plaster ceiling) before finished ceiling is installed, the bridge serves as a placeholder for the speaker
