Meyer Sound ASHBY-5C 5" Active Ceiling Speaker, No Atten, White - 09.261.001.01

Product Overview

The Meyer Sound ASHBY-5C is an active 5-inch ceiling loudspeaker for distributed commercial AV in conference rooms, huddle spaces, and training rooms. As a self-powered ceiling loudspeaker, it delivers consistent overhead coverage without a separate amplifier rack. The flush-mount white finish keeps it discreet in finished ceilings.

Product Description

The ASHBY-5C suits integrators specifying distributed audio where intelligibility and a clean ceiling line both matter. Because amplification is built in, this active ceiling loudspeaker integrates downstream of a DSP or matrix and reduces the amplifier count in the rack. The enclosure is designed for in-ceiling installation in commercial meeting spaces and multi-purpose rooms. This configuration ships without an attenuator. For larger rooms, it pairs with full-range and subwoofer models available on creationnetworks.net.
