Description
Tannoy TA-CMS503ICT-BM 5" Full Range Ceiling Loudspeaker with ICT Driver for Installation Applications (Blind Mount ) - Sold in Pairs
The product is sold in pairs, but the price is listed per individual item.
Based on Tannoy’s proprietary ICT (Inductive Coupling Technology) driver the CMS 503ICT and CMS 603ICT deliver wide-bandwidth, wide dispersion point-source audio performance and articulation in a compact and low-cost package with flexible installation options. The CMS 503ICT uses a newly refined 130mm (5.00”) Tannoy ICT driver with mineral loaded polypropylene cone and ICT aluminium dome tweeter assembly. With a frequency range of 71Hz-24kHz (PI Backcan version), continuous program power handling of 100Watts, sensitivity of 89dB/Watt and 90 degree conical dispersion pattern the CMS 503ICT is ideal for small to medium sized rooms or installations requiring arrays of in-ceiling speakers to cover a large area.
The point source configuration of the Tannoy ICT driver’s mid-bass and tweeter sections ensures a wide and controlled dispersion for optimum coverage and greater intelligibility. Use of wireless electromagnetic coupling to drive the tweeter means that no crossover is required, making the ICT drive unit exceptionally reliable and ideal for applications where constant heavy usage is anticipated. The mineral-loaded polypropylene cone material and nitrile rubber surround further enhance durability and long-term reliability.
The incorporated low-insertion loss 30 W transformer features convenient front bezel switching for taps at 30 W and 15 W, with an additional 7.5 W tap for traditional constant voltage systems. Flexible features include extra clamp extension to accommodate thicker ceiling panels, and a locking design that prevents inadvertent over-tightening. Magnetic grille attachment enables easy removal and fitting for custom painting and tapping changes with grilles now available as either traditional style (inset in bezel) or Arco™ style, which conceals the entire unit for architect-friendly aesthetic appeal.
The CMS 503ICT is available in blind mount (BM) version with an integral back-can, ready to install as a single unit, while the CMS 503ICT PI (Pre-Install) is supplied without a back-can. The zinc plated steel back-cans have an integrated, recessed termination box. All models are supplied with classic grille, two tile support rails and one C-ring. Arco grille and plaster (mud) ring are available as optional accessories.
