The Extron CS 1226T Plus is a high-performance, plenum-rated coaxial ceiling speaker designed for superior speech intelligibility and music reproduction in professional distributed audio installations. Featuring a 12-inch (305 mm) polypropylene cone woofer with a coaxially mounted 1-inch (25 mm) dome tweeter, the speaker delivers a wide frequency response of 65 Hz to 20 kHz with smooth dispersion and consistent coverage. The integrated 70/100 V transformer offers multiple power taps up to 30 W, plus an 8-ohm bypass for low-impedance systems, making it versatile for use with Extron amplifiers or standard commercial audio setups.

The plenum-rated metal back can and UL 2043 listing ensure compliance for air-handling spaces, while the low-profile design, magnetically attached paintable grille, and included C-ring/tile support rails simplify secure installation in standard drop ceilings. Ideal for classrooms, conference rooms, auditoriums, open offices, retail spaces, and large venues requiring clear, balanced sound with aesthetic integration.
