Atlas Sound FAP63T-W – 6.5" 2-Way In-Ceiling Speaker 70V/100V (Pair, White)

Product Overview

The Atlas Sound FAP63T-W is a 6.5-inch coaxial 2-way in-ceiling loudspeaker from the Strategy III series, sold and priced in pairs. Engineered for commercial background music and paging deployments requiring high speech intelligibility and wide audience coverage, the FAP63T-W supports 70.7V/100V and 8-ohm operation with a 150-watt power rating. Its patented Safety First Mounting System and UL1480/UL2043 dual certification make it the correct choice for drop-tile and drywall ceiling installations in plenum air-handling spaces across retail, hospitality, corporate, and institutional environments.

Product Description

The FAP63T-W Strategy III builds on AtlasIED's well-established Strategy series platform with performance and installation improvements at each generation. The driver complement pairs a 6.5-inch woofer with a 1-inch silk dome tweeter in a 2-way coaxial configuration, delivering a frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz with 90 dB sensitivity and a dispersion pattern up to 110 degrees. A ported enclosure enhances low-frequency response for fuller sound in background music applications. The improved waveguide design provides wider and more uniform coverage than prior models, which can reduce speaker count per zone and lower overall system cost. The patented Safety First Mounting System (SFMS) uses integrated T-handles on the front baffle to secure mounting tabs — a mechanism tested across over 100 prototypes to eliminate over-torque damage during installation. This system also reduces installation time by up to 60% and requires no tools. Front-mounted 70V tap selection allows on-the-fly system tuning without removing the speaker. A 4-pole removable Euro-style (Phoenix) connector simplifies pre-wiring and daisy-chaining to additional speakers or subwoofers. No metal screws secure the doglegs, eliminating corrosion concerns in humid environments. The FAP63T-W ships in white and carries UL1480 and UL2043 dual safety listings. A 5-year limited warranty is included.
