Support Ring Tile Rails Screws Ceiling Tile Figure 2 - Mounting the CL-6P in a suspended acoustic ceiling grid Note: The C-ring is supplied with the speaker, the ceiling mounting rails (CSMR) should be purchased separately. • By using a pre-cut wooden base in which the speaker is installed. In this case there is no need for the tile mounting rails, we do recommend using the C-ring (supplied with the speaker) to better distribute the pressure applied by the dog ears to the wooden plate. -

Long cable runs (up to hundreds of meters) without significant loss. In high impedance mode the CL-6P supports the following power Note: ratings: at 100V – 30W / 15W / 7.5W at 70V – 30W / 15W / 7.5W / 3.8W CL-6P – Installation Guide... - Page 9 When You Need High SPL or Full-Range Performance • Transformer-based 70V/100V systems often cut low frequencies to protect • transformers and reduce core size. For full-range systems where bass and clarity matter - 8Ω wins. • CL-6P – Installation Guide...
- Page 10 In most other countries, 100V systems are common because local electrical standards allow higher voltages in low-current applications. The key advantage of 100V systems is that they deliver more power over longer distances with thinner cables, making them ideal for large-scale distributed audio installations.
