Concourse C models are complete assemblies
ready for installation into both suspended tile
ceilings and hard ceilings. A rear mounted terminal box allows termination of the speaker wiring
to the speaker as well as impedance selection
(except C4T and C4-16). Power taps are selected
on 70/100V versions through a front mounted
rotary switch.
Speakers are mounted by means of four mounting
clamps located around the rear face of the bezel.
A metal split C ring is provided to distribute the
clamping pressure evenly along the ceiling surface. A pair of metal mounting support rails are
provided for added support when the speakers
are installed in a suspended tile ceiling.
A seismic restraint point is provided on the rear of
the speaker to facilitate attachment of a restraint
tether to the building’s structure. The removable
front grille is also fitted with a restraint tether that
