Ceiling/In-wall Loudspeaker Delivering High Quality Sound and Wide Sonic Dispersion

The Sound Advance CT8B ™ Series delivers extended bandwidth and wide dispersion with a Flat Panel design for application in commercial and residential installations.

Employing Sound Advance's patented Flat Panel Diaphragm Technology™ the CT8B radiates sound in a smooth, hemispherical pattern with over 140º of sound coverage. Because of its wide sound dispersion pattern, fewer CT8B loudspeakers are required to meet the same performance of conventional, narrow dispersion ceiling or in-wall loudspeakers. As a result, CT8B speakers can be spaced farther apart, reducing the total quantity of loudspeakers required for almost any installation which dramatically reduces the total system cost.

The surface of the CT8B utilizes Expanded Polystyrene™ creating a smooth surface which may be finished with water soluble materials such as latex paints to match any color or decor requirement. With its paintable surface and no unsightly speaker grille, the CT8B blends easily into any decor.

Designed for easy installation, the CT8B is mounted using either a standard screw type or torsion spring mounting configuration. All CT8B Series models flush mount into conventional drop ceiling tiles, sheetrock, stucco walls or ceilings up to one inch thick. CT8B Series speakers use industry standard 8" loudspeaker mounting accessories and will retro-fit into almost all existing standard 8" diameter openings.
