8” 2-Way, In-Ceiling, Coaxial, Infinite Baffle Loudspeaker
The easy to install FIT800FL is a full-range ceiling loudspeaker with Focused
Image Technology™. It incorporates the MetaPlex woofer with a butyl rubber surround
and the diffraction-less silk dome pivoting Ferrofluid cooled tweeter.
The FastLoc™ grill patent no. 8,422,722, is a feature found only
at Current Audio. Our design has allowed for the smallest exposed plastic bezel in
the industry, truly making it disappear into the mounting surface. The
FastLoc™ grill's unique patent pending mechanism allows for a quick
installation and removal of the grill while securely fastening it in place to all
types of mounting surfaces. Due to the unique design the grill will conform to
uneven surfaces including popcorn, heavy textured and uneven ceilings. While our
competitors have chosen to utilize magnets in their
designs thus requiring the use of a steel grill that will rust our design allows us
to use corrosion and rust resistant aluminum.
The FIT series speakers additionally incorporate the unique Patent Pending Three
Dimensional Positioning (3-DP) woofer. This design allows the user to separately
adjust the angle, tilt and rotation of the woofer so you can direct the sound where
you want it, not where you install it.
The Positive Position Lock system (PPL) uses two screws on either side of the
woofer that pull the back plane tight and locks the position in place.
The Infinite Baffle design makes it the ideal choice for typical applications in
open beam attic or enclosed ceilings.
Driver Material: MetaPlex™
- This is an electronically bonded substrate on a copolymer cone. Basically it
is a trilaminate cone, the first layer is a copolymer base material. The second
layer is a material that allows the third layer (green colored surface) to bond to
the copolymer.
- Copolymer cones alone are found in other speakers. The key to our material is
that the green coating allows for a well damped material (the first layer) to
combine with a low mass high stiffness coating (the green layer). This improves the
performance by stiffening a cone material that is normally used alone in entry level
speakers. Better midrange performance and less bass distortion is the result from
less cone breakup.
Tweeter Material: Silk Dome Tweeter
- Our silk dome tweeters use a treated silk soft dome. This material is neutral
sounding and is used in many higher end bookshelf and cabinet speakers.
