Applications
The FAP82T is a premium performance 70.7V / 100V tuned & ported 8"
coaxial ceiling speaker system perfectly suited for many business music
and public address applications – especially applications where high
ceilings require loudspeakers with increased efficiency and tighter pattern
control. The 8" coaxial speaker system features extended low frequency
response rivaling that of many subwoofers.
The FAP82T will satisfy the needs of owners, architects, contractors,
and consultants by delivering true, high fidelity sound reproduction in
an attractive and easy-to-install system. The FAP82T is ideal for high
intelligibility voice, music, and signal reproduction in commercial,
industrial, and institutional applications.
General Description
Loudspeakers exhibiting wider dispersion than 100° will exceed 6dB
of drop off at the edge of the coverage pattern causing excessive SPL
variances. Using more of the same wide coverage speaker in a high
ceiling application to compensate only worsens the situation, as comb
filtering from multi-path arrivals will result. For more information please
review our white paper “The Limitations of Wide Dispersion” on our
website, www.AtlasIED.com.
The loudspeaker component is based on the legendary Atlas Sound
FA Series drivers. High quality construction 8" coaxial cone type driver
includes a 38mm voice coil and polypropylene cone with a butyl rubber
surround. The 19mm coaxially mounted tweeter is constructed of PEI.
A high sensitivity of 90dB average means less power may be required
to achieve the desired SPL. This loudspeaker is factory assembled in an
optimally tuned and ported deep drawn enclosure and includes a specially
designed 60 watt low saturation 70.7V / 100V transformer. A convenient
front mounted selector switch allows tap selection without the need
to remove the speaker from the ceiling. This tap selector switch also
includes a transformer bypass setting for instances where the 8Ω FAP82T
driver is to be direct coupled with a low impedance amplifier.
