Atlas Sound FC-6T – IsoFlare 6" Premium Blind-Mount Ceiling Speaker

Product Overview

The Atlas Sound FC-6T is a 6" two-way IsoFlare point source ceiling loudspeaker designed for premium commercial audio installations where coverage consistency and tonal accuracy are required. It is the primary choice for AV integrators specifying high-fidelity in-ceiling speakers for corporate boardrooms, hospitality spaces, and houses of worship. The FC-6T blind mount configuration ships with an integral back can, C-Ring, and Tile Bridge, making it a self-contained installation package for commercial-grade ceiling audio deployments. With 70V/100V transformer support and compatibility with the AtlasIED Atmosphere DSP platform, the FC-6T fits directly into managed distributed audio systems.

Product Description

The Atlas Sound FC-6T uses AtlasIED's IsoFlare coaxial driver technology — a point source design that aligns the high-frequency and low-frequency acoustic sources to propagate a single spherical wavefront. This homogeneous alignment across all axes eliminates the phase and time-alignment issues common with traditional two-way ceiling speakers, resulting in even coverage and accurate off-axis response throughout the listening area. The FC-6T is rated from 62Hz to 19kHz (+/-3dB) with a 100-degree nominal coverage angle, making it suitable for medium-to-large rooms where consistent sound distribution across the listening plane is a specification requirement.

The ferrofluid-cooled titanium high-frequency driver uses a neodymium magnet system, and the low-frequency cone uses weather-treated multi-fiber material with a fluted surround to minimize reflective coloration. The crossover uses air core inductors and polypropylene capacitors for low insertion loss and accurate frequency division. A rotary transformer tap selector provides field-configurable taps of 60W, 30W, and 15W (7.5W at 70V), plus low-impedance operation at 8 ohms — all selectable without additional tools. The edgeless magnetic grille eliminates visible mounting hardware and accommodates optional square grilles without adapters. The patented toolless high-travel secure-clamp mechanism simplifies blind-mount installation in grid ceilings. Enhanced voicing presets are accessible through the AtlasIED Atmosphere platform for system-level tuning.

Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the FC-6T compatible with 70V distributed audio systems?

A: Yes. The FC-6T includes a full-bandwidth 60W 70V/100V transformer with a rotary tap selector. Selectable taps include 60W, 30W, and 15W (7.5W at 70V), as well as low-impedance 8-ohm operation for direct amplifier connection.

Q: What installation hardware is included with the FC-6T?

A: The blind mount package includes an integral back can, C-Ring, and Tile Bridge. This self-contained kit is designed for installation in drop-tile ceilings without separate backbox orders. For pre-construction or new-build applications, the FC-6TPI Pre-Install variant uses a separate back can (FC-6TPIC) and driver (FC-6DRV).

Q: Can the FC-6T be used with the AtlasIED Atmosphere DSP platform?

A: Yes. The FC-6T supports enhanced voicing presets available through the AtlasIED Atmosphere platform, allowing integrators to apply system-level EQ and voicing profiles remotely.

Q: What grille options are available for the FC-6T?

A: The FC-6T ships with a white edgeless magnetic grille. Optional black and white round grilles (FC-6RG-B) and square grilles (FC-6SG-B, FC-6SG-W) are available separately. Square grilles mount directly without adapters.

Q: Is low-frequency extension available for the FC-6T?

A: Yes. The FC-8ST in-ceiling subwoofer is the recommended companion product for applications requiring extended low-frequency reproduction below the FC-6T's operating range.

Q: What is the warranty period for the FC-6T?

A: The FC-6T is backed by AtlasIED's 60-month (5-year) warranty from the date of purchase.

Q: Does the FC-6T require a tool for installation?

A: No. The FC-6T uses a patented toolless high-travel secure-clamp mechanism for fast installation in grid ceilings, reducing installation time compared to traditional screw-clamp designs.
