Sonance - VP65 XT - 6.5" 130W Visual Performance In-wall Speaker (2-pack) - White

Product Overview

The Sonance VP65 XT is a 6.5 inch in-wall speaker sold as a two-pack, engineered to deliver clear, full-range audio in commercial spaces that experience humidity and temperature extremes. As the rectangular model in the Visual Performance Extreme range, it is purpose-built for in-wall installation with a paintable micro-trim grille that integrates discreetly into the room. Its weather-resistant construction makes it suitable for demanding indoor environments where standard architectural speakers would degrade. For integrators, it combines durability with the refined Sonance sound profile in a single in-wall package.

Product Description

The VP65 XT pairs a 1 inch polyurethane dome tweeter with a 6 1/2 inch injection-molded polypropylene and graphite cone woofer, using an integral Santoprene surround that maintains driver suspension through extreme environmental conditions. The Visual Performance Extreme design is engineered for high-humidity areas and temperatures from -30 degrees F up to +175 degrees F while maintaining superior sound quality, which makes it a strong choice for spaces other in-wall speakers cannot withstand. All exposed plastic parts are made of durable, high-temperature plastic, and the powder-coated stainless steel micro-trim grille resists corrosion in salt air and moisture. The grille has only 0.20 inch of trim and attaches via powerful magnets, giving the speaker a clean, modern appearance once installed. The RotoLock mounting system with a two-piece toggle foot allows installation into new or existing walls, including double drywall and thicker wall materials, while the exclusive FastMount tabs hold the speaker in the cutout during installation. Because the grille and frame can be painted together, integrators save time matching speakers to the room finish. The VP65 XT can also be retrofitted into existing cutouts for Original Series XT speakers without modification, simplifying upgrades. As part of a distributed audio system, it pairs with Sonance subwoofers and amplifiers found in the Sonance commercial audio collection. With an 8 ohm nominal impedance and 130 watt power handling, it integrates with standard low-impedance amplification used in most commercial rooms. The result is a durable, paintable in-wall speaker that delivers consistent sound across challenging conditions.
