Performance and User Experience

In real‑world use, the LP6V delivers clear, even audio suited to background music, announcements or A/V systems. The 2‑way crossover ensures separation and clarity, while its sensitivity and transformer options allow integrators to tailor sound levels across multiple zones with ease.

Q&A

• Can this speaker be used in a typical 8 Ω hi‑fi system? Yes. Set the selector to 8 Ω mode and it will behave like a standard low‑impedance speaker.
• Is it suitable for bathrooms or outdoor use? No. The housing is for indoor commercial environments only; it lacks moisture resistance for wet areas.
• Can it be painted? Absolutely. The steel grille is paintable, allowing seamless blending with ceilings.
• Will it work in a large open‑plan space? Yes. Use multiple units with 100 V taps to evenly distribute sound across larger rooms.
• Does it require special cabling? Standard speaker or 100 V line cable will suffice. Use spring‑clamp terminals for secure connection.
