Product Description

Thank you for choosing Bogenʼs High-Fidelity, Small-Footprint Loudspeaker. Please familiarize yourself with the product by reading and reviewing the descriptions and diagrams in this manual.

Bogenʼs coaxial 2-way small footprint ceiling speaker delivers unsurpassed performance and value. The HFSF1ʼs steel back can and front exit tuned venting allow for extended bass response, enhancing the quality and intelligibility of both speech and music. The very compact diameter and depth dimensions allow for a wide range of installation possibilities in nearly all ceiling spaces.

The HFSF1 can be installed either in suspended ceiling structures or hard surfaces (such as sheetrock). It comes ready to install with integral swinging arm clamps. The Bogen support bracket TBSF is recommended for additional support when the speaker will be installed in suspended ceilings with thin or non-rigid tiles. The optional bracket can also be used for providing a cutout guide behind a sheetrock ceiling and to stiffen the edges of the cutout.

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

The HFSF1 features a removable snap-lock input connector, providing easy wire connection for input as well as loop-through to the next speaker.

Note: The HFSF1 is not an outdoor speaker. Do not expose the speaker to rain or moisture. The HFSF1 should only be installed by qualified personnel.
