High-Fidelity Ceiling Speakers

Models HFCS1 and HFCS1LP

Installation and Use Manual

Product Description

Bogen’s coaxial 2-way hi-fi ceiling speakers deliver unsurpassed performance and value. The HFCS1(LP)’s steel back can and front exit venting allow for deep bass response, enhancing the quality and intelligibility of both speech and music. The HFCS1LP uses a smaller, low-profile back can that allows for a greater range of installations.

Both speakers can be installed either in suspended ceiling structures or hard surfaces (such as sheetrock). They come ready to install with integral swinging arm clamps. An optional mounting bracket (TBCR) is available for additional support (recommended for all suspended ceiling applications). The bracket can also be used for new construction ceilings, providing a cutout guide behind the sheetrock surface and as a C-ring to stiffen the edges of the cutout opening.

A variety of speaker power levels are easily selected via a front panel rotary switch. Settings for both 70V and 100V high-impedance systems, as well as a low-impedance (16-ohm) position, are provided.

The HFCS1(LP) features a removable snap-lock input connector, providing easy wire connection for input as well as loop-through to the next speaker.

IMPORTANT

speakers to rain or moisture. The HFCS1 and HFCS1LP should only be
