The Extron SM 26 SpeedMount surface mount speaker is a two-way speaker with a concealed wall mounting system. It features a 6.5" woofer with dual tuned ports and a 1" tweeter as well as a six-position power tap selector, which can conveniently be accessed through the grille from outside the speaker. The advanced mounting system allows the SM 26 to slide onto the mount and lock into place. In the same installation step, the integrated electrical contacts on the speaker automatically mate with the pre-wired contacts on the mounting plate to speed up and simplify installation. A release on the speaker baffle allows for quick removal from the mount. The release is lockable and hidden, and together with the concealed speaker wiring contacts, helps to deter theft.
The SM 26 saves time and installation costs for AV system contractors working with low-voltage contractors in a division-of-labor installation. During rough-in, a low-voltage contractor installs the mounting system on the wall and terminates the speaker cable to the mount's integrated wiring contacts. Later, the AV system contractor completes the installation by sliding the SM 26 onto the mount. The SM 26 speaker is ideally suited for classrooms, conference rooms, exercise facilities, retail spaces, and other environments where surface mount speakers are desired, but wall space for speaker placement is limited. It provides a wide frequency range and high-performance voice and music reproduction for a variety of sound reinforcement applications.
