The Kramer CL-6P-LP provides a two-way passive ceiling speaker with a shallow closed-back enclosure. Transformer taps and low-impedance operation let the installer match it to the amplifier system.
CL-6P-LP Detailed Features
- Install a speaker where ceiling depth is limited. The low-profile closed-back enclosure is designed for shallow ceiling spaces. Confirm the required cutout and available depth before selecting the mounting location.
- Reproduce speech and music with a two-way design. The driver arrangement supports installed audio across a broad listening area. Published sensitivity is 90dB at 1W/1m, helping the designer plan useful output with the available amplifier power.
- Choose low- or high-impedance operation. The speaker supports 8-ohm systems and 70V/100V distributed audio. Select the correct mode and transformer tap to match the amplifier and speaker-line design.
- Match amplifier capacity to the published rating. Power ratings are 30W continuous pink noise and 45W continuous program. Use these ratings with the intended operating mode and the rest of the loudspeaker system.
- Meet the listed plenum-related product requirements. The manufacturer lists UL2043 and UL1480A ratings. Confirm that the speaker, cabling, and installation method together meet the requirements of the particular building project.
- Choose a grille finish during installation. Black and white bezel-less magnetic grilles are included. This allows the installer to match the visible finish without ordering a different driver assembly.
- Access wiring from the front. Front-access wiring and a pluggable connector simplify connection during mounting. The kit includes a C-ring and bolts; mounting rails are a separate accessory.
- Order as a single speaker. The listing is for one unit, even though two individual speakers may share a master shipping box. Use the required number of individual units when planning coverage.
