INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing this Metro Wall Mount Speaker! We understand that a
commercial sound system needs to be articulate and able to run 24/7. We also know
that speakers should look good or blend into their environment. These Metro wall
speakers do it all. They sound great for the spoken word or light background music
(BGM) and have a minimal aesthetic that will not distract from the décor.
The unique up-firing tweeter to a down-firing baffle and down-firing woofer allows
installers to keep sound where it needs to go, off the walls and ceilings, minimizing
reflections that cause phase and modulation that require more EQ and DSP. The 90°
horizontal coverage gives these Metro wall speakers flexibility for mounting in several
configurations. Simply mount a single unit to the wall for basic coverage or mount two
side-by-side for full 180° coverage. Use the optional Quad Hanging Bracket (P/N 36378)
to hang four in a center cluster for 360° of sound.
FEATURES
70V/100V constant voltage speaker rated for 13 and 25 watts
Up to 104dB ±2dB sound pressure level
60 Hz ~ 20 kHz frequency response

CONSTANT VOLTAGE VS 8-OHM SPEAKER SYSTEMS
A constant voltage speaker system differs from a traditional 8-ohm speaker system in
that it uses a step-up transformer at the audio source to raise the voltage and lower the
current on the transmission line. At the speaker end, a step-down transformer converts
the signal back to a normal speaker level voltage. This reduces power loss during
transmission, which allows for the use of longer speaker wire runs using smaller gauge
wire.
Additionally, a constant voltage speaker system allows for the use of multiple speakers
on each channel, without the need for complicated impedance calculations and
configurations. In a constant voltage system, all speakers on a given channel are
connected in parallel and the complicated impedance calculations are replaced by
simple wattage calculations.
For example, if you want to connect two speakers per channel in a traditional 8-ohm
speaker system, you must either connect them in series, which results in an overall 16-
ohm impedance, or in parallel, which results in an overall 4-ohm impedance. In the first
case, the 16-ohms impedance effectively halves the output power of your amplifier,
