APPLICATIONS
The Atlas Sound FAP82T is a premium performance 70.7/100V tuned & ported 8" coaxial ceiling
speaker system perfectly suited for many business music and public address applications –especially applications where high ceilings require loudspeakers with increased efficiency and tighter
pattern control. The 8" coaxial speaker system features extended low frequency response rivaling
that of many subwoofers.
The FAP82T will satisfy the needs of owners, architects, contractors, and consultants by delivering
true, high fidelity sound reproduction in an attractive and easy-to-install system. The FAP82Tis
ideal for high-intelligibility voice, music, and signal reproduction in commercial, industrial, and
institutional applications.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The FAP82T’s 100 degree dispersion angle (in the 2kHz octave band) is perfect for higher ceiling
applications where tighter pattern control is required. Tight pattern control (not exceeding 100
degrees) is important for high ceiling applications. Loudspeakers exhibiting wider dispersion than
100 degrees will exceed 6dB of drop off at the edge of the coverage pattern causing excessive
SPL variances. Using more of the same wide coverage speaker in a high ceiling application to
compensate only worsens the situation, as comb filtering from multi-path arrivals will result.
For more information please review our white paper “The Limitations of Wide Dispersion” on our
website www.AtlasSound.com
The loudspeaker component matches is based on the performance of the legendary Atlas
Sound FAseries drivers. High quality construction 1" voice coil, 8" coaxial cone type driver
includes polypropylene cone with a butyl rubber surround. The19mm coaxially mounted tweeter
is constructed of PEI. Ahigh sensitivity of 90dB average means less power may be required to
achieve the desired SPL. This loudspeaker is factory assembled to an optimally tuned & ported
deep drawn enclosure and includes a specially designed 60 watt low saturation 70.7V/100V
transformer. A convenient front mounted selector switch allows tap selection without the need to
remove the speaker from the ceiling. This tap selector switch also includes a transformer
bypass setting for instances where the 8 ohm FAP82T driver is to be direct coupled with a low
impedance amplifier.
