Dual 8" ln-Ceiling Passive Subwoofer

Designed for high-quality, Iow-visuaI-impact
music reinforcement applications, Klipsch's
innovative IC-8T-SW in-ceiling subwoofer
offers an unprecedented combination of
performance and versatility. Its four high-
temperature voice coils allow transformerless
switch configuration for 70- or IOO-volt, high-
impedance distributed-audio systems, 4-ohm
single-input operation, or 8-ohm dual-input
operation. Eliminating the conventional
transformer coupling has significant benefits at
low frequencies, increasing power handling
and reducing distortion. The result is clean,
rich bass that adds warmth and body to any
installation. And the IC-8T-SW requires only
modest amplifier power to deliver satisfying
output levels.

The lC-8T-SW is built around an 8-inch, long-
excursion driver in a bandpass enclosure with
an 8-inch passive radiator. This arrangement
extends the subwoofers output while
minimizing distortion and preventing the
turbulence noise that can occur with ported
enclosures. Polypropylene cones, a formed-
steel back can, and terminal-strip inputs assure
long, reliable service. The easy-to-install
subwoofer has an ABS plastic baffle and a
removable, powder-coated aluminum grille
that can be painted to match the ceiling. It
ships with a tile bridge for installation in
suspended ceilings or where additional ceiling
reinforcement is necessary.
