Rated 4.9 (120 reviews)
The Biamp Desono DX-IC6 is a high-efficiency two-way ceiling speaker for paging and music in installations where sonic quality matters. A genuine coaxial design with separate magnets for the 6.5 inch LF driver and 1 inch exit compression driver keeps distortion low, while 94 dB sensitivity delivers 3 to 6 dB more output from half the amplifier power of comparable products. It runs passive at 8 ohms or on 70V/100V lines via the built-in autoformer, and SpringLock mounting clamps make for a fast, tool-light install with uniform 115-degree conical coverage.
