Product Overview
The Atlas Sound 161RES is a heavy-duty recessed stainless steel speaker enclosure designed specifically for VP161 Series vandal-proof baffles. Built from 18-gauge stainless steel with natural finish, it provides a tamper-resistant, flush-mounted housing solution for commercial and institutional AV installations. The 161RES accommodates a wide variety of speaker and transformer configurations, making it a versatile choice for architects and AV integrators specifying vandal-proof audio in high-traffic or security-sensitive environments.
Product Description
The 161RES recessed enclosure is engineered to pair with Atlas Sound's VP161 Series vandal-proof baffles, creating a complete recessed mounting system for cone loudspeakers. The enclosure is constructed from 18-gauge stainless steel and features a non-painted natural finish that provides corrosion resistance without the risk of paint chipping in demanding environments. An undercoating treatment further protects the enclosure body from the inside out. The unit is designed to accept a wide variety of speaker and transformer combinations, giving integrators flexibility when selecting driver and transformer configurations for 70.7V or low-impedance systems. Installation requires cutting an appropriate rough-in opening in the ceiling or wall surface; the enclosure's dimensions accommodate standard speaker assemblies in the VP161 family. The 161RES carries Buy America Act (BAA) and Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliance designations, making it suitable for federally funded projects. Atlas Sound backs the product with a 60-month warranty. This enclosure is the specified solution for any project requiring recessed VP161 installations in correctional facilities, transportation terminals, schools, or any venue where surface-mounted hardware is not permissible.
