Extron announces immediate availability of the CA 163, designed to be an easy-to-install column array speaker and to combine “excellent speech intelligibility, a contemporary aesthetic, and integration-friendly mounting options,” according to the announcement. Two mounting systems are available to accommodate different room layouts and sizes. Made for acoustically challenging environments, it features a focused vertical dispersion that directs sound to listeners instead of reflective ceilings or floors. Available in paintable black or white.
“One of the most frequent requests we've received has been for an Extron column array speaker," says Casey Hall, Chief Marketing Officer for Extron. "Our engineers set out to design a new solution that not only looks as great as it sounds, it's also extremely easy to install. We are very excited to expand Extron speaker offerings into the larger applications served by the CA 163."
The wall mounting system is designed for one person to mount the CA 163 to the wall securely and a wall-mounting template is included to accurately position the speaker mounts. Once the mounts are installed, a slot on the rear of the speaker allows it to slide up and down to the desired height.
The CA 163 PT includes a pan & tilt mount for maximum speaker aiming flexibility, while the CA 163 LP includes a low‑profile mount for minimal protrusion from the wall.
