Extron Electronics is pleased to introduce the new SoundField XD Series SF 3C LP
and SF 3CT LP full-range ceiling speakers featuring a low profile composite back can
for use in plenum rated ceiling environments. With the industry’s first UL 2043 listed
composite speaker enclosure, the SF 3C LP and SF 3CT LP meet stringent UL
requirements for smoke and heat release in plenum air spaces.
The redesigned 3″ (7.6 cm) full-range driver features a wider and smoother
frequency range of 65 Hz to 20 kHz and is engineered with an extremely wide
conical dispersion of 165°. The SF 3C LP is designed for 8 ohm direct connection to
power amplifiers, and provides a simple means to wire speakers in parallel for 4
ohm amplifier operation. The SF 3CT LP allows either direct 8 ohm or 70/100 volt
operation with a behind-the-grille, six position power selector switch. The 4″ (10.2
cm) low profile back can makes these speakers an ideal choice for ceiling
installations with tight above-the-ceiling tile space issues, such as air handling units
installed close to the ceiling.
“The SF 3C LP and SF 3CT LP represent a new paradigm in speaker technology for
pro AV applications,” says Casey Hall, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for
Extron. “With innovative materials, modular construction, and a long list of other
unique features, these new SoundField XD speakers provide significant savings and
superior performance.”
Designed with the integrator in mind, the SF 3C LP and SF 3CT LP are constructed
using a two-piece modular design with a separable back can and baffle, which
simplifies installation in both single-trade and division of labour installations. These
speakers include a cable/conduit access plate that can be oriented for side mount,
for low clearance ceilings, or for top mount for blind-mounting into drywall ceilings.
Exclusive Opti-Torque indicator rings provide a visual indication when the locking
arm screws have been sufficiently tightened, preventing damage to the speaker
caused by overtightening. Both models feature a thin-edged round bezel and
magnetic grille for a refined appearance on the ceiling.
With a composite construction and redesigned mounting kits, the SF 3C LP and SF
3CT LP are delivered in significantly smaller and lighter weight packaging, resulting
in lower overall storage and shipping costs. The SF 3C LP and SF 3CT LP speakers
are sold in pairs and include a 5-year parts and labour warranty.
