Overview
The Theory ic6 high-output in-ceiling loudspeaker will change your expectations of small-format, high-efficiency in-ceiling loudspeakers. Via careful processing and computer-optimized tuned ports, the ic6 delivers exceptional low-frequency bandwidth, punch and resolution. Even when used in foreground music applications - no subwoofer is necessary.
But that’s not all. The ic6 offers extremely wide dispersion to highest frequencies (refer to the ic6 Pendant measurements for data), so the coverage area is massive, even when installed in low ceilings.
This is the highest performance 6” ceiling speaker available.
16-ohm and 70V/100V operation.
