The Yamaha VXC6W is a 6", 8 Ω/70V ceiling speaker in white. Designed by Yamaha to accommodate the growing list of applications in the installation market. While these speakers deliver Yamaha's quintessential sound quality, they've also been carefully engineered for safe and easy installation. Each unit includes an internal transformer that allows both high- and low-impedance drive with just a single speaker, simply by switching the tap located on the baffle. And because a single speaker can be used for both operations, inventory control is simplified, and the added versatility means you can easily adapt your system to changes. An Anti-Drop tab allows them to be temporarily mounted in the ceiling, freeing your hands for better safety and ease of installation. An attached, flexible carrying band also makes the speakers very portable, enabling you to simultaneously carry multiple speakers safely. Additionally, they also come complete with O-rings and tile rails for a safer, smoother installation. Yamaha developed this speaker series to address a demand in the installation market for speakers capable of providing superb music reproduction as well as crystal clear announcements for public address applications. They feature newly customized transducers with large, powerful magnetic circuits that increase driving and braking force substantially, as well as dedicated tweeter diaphragms and speaker cone paper made from a carefully-created blend of materials that help optimize sound reproduction. Cabinets are built tough to meet the demands of a wide variety of commercial environments, constructed from a carefully selected plastic with just the right tensile strength, and designed with optimized bass-reflex tuning to offer a firm, tight low-end. From the networking components and the materials used for wiring and soldering, right on down to the optimal placement of acoustic absorption material, a great deal of attention has been paid to even the smallest design details. Several aspects of these speakers' design reflect a strong emphasis on functionality as well as the aesthetics of their construction - effectively enhancing sound quality and speaker performance without disturbing the interior decor of the installation. This concept is evident in the hexagonal design featured on the grille that actually improves sound clarity by raising the aperture ratio. Similarly, the smooth curves of the surface-mount cabinet's simple yet sophisticated design allow the speakers to be mounted closely to the wall - while still fully capable of panning and tilting to target service areas. Even the innovative design of the VXC's tweeter improves sound clarity by providing unrestricted woofer movement.
