Low-profile ceiling speakers designed for superior music reproduction
Music can play an integral role in defining the aesthetic and atmosphere of a commercial space, greatly enhancing the overall experience for customers and clientele. By combining Yamaha’s unrivaled acumen for developing state of the art musical instruments and professional audio technologies, with a flexible approach towards design and application, VXC-F ceiling speakers allow you to streamline the installation process and seamlessly integrate high-quality audio into a restaurant, retail, or professional environment. Featuring a newly designed speaker unit, optimally tuned for music playback, the VXC-F’s shallow, lightweight construction and flexible design can easily adapt to the strictest installation limitations, ensuring superb audio performance wherever they’re placed.
Delivers the Highest Quality Background Music
Yamaha’s deep understanding of music comes together with cutting edge technology in newly designed speaker units and resin enclosures that allow an extraordinary degree of acoustic design freedom, resulting in refined, natural music reproduction at any volume level without the midrange distortion that often plagues speakers of this type. The VXC-F's speaker unit size and back box volume have also been painstakingly matched to achieve well-balanced reproduction from low to high frequencies even at low output levels.
Recommended Applications
Restarurant, cafe, bar, retail stores, spa, museum, hotel lobby, ball room, etc.
Smart Design for Safer, Faster Installation
The VXC-F ceiling speakers feature low profile back boxes, reduced weight, and mechanical features that contribute to significantly safer, faster installation. And since these models support both low-impedance and high-impedance connection, the need for extra stock is minimized and systems can be designed to ideally meet the requirements of any application.
Carrying Band
Anti-Drop Tab
Hi-Z or Lo-Z
Both high-impedance and low-impedance connections are supported, and speaker wattage can be easily switched even after installation.
Low Profile
Reduced physical depth allows installation in ceilings where space is limited.
Lightweight
Reduced weight increases installation flexibility while lessening the burden on installation personnel.
Portable
A built-in "carrying band" not only makes the speaker easy to carry around, but also increases safety when working on a stepladder.
Secure
An anti-drop tab mechanism securely holds the speaker in place so that the installation can proceed safely and efficiently. There’s also a release lever that allows the speaker to be smoothly removed from the ceiling as required.
* Not available with the VXC2F
Fast
Double threaded screws used for the speaker clamp mechanism allow the clamps to be tightened twice as fast as conventional screws.
Streamlined
The supplied speaker grilles are firmly and elegantly held in place by powerful magnets. An anti-drop wire is also included.
Paintable
The supplied grilles can be painted any color to match interior decor.
EN54-24 Certified Versions with Uncompromised Performance
Yamaha also offers "VA versions" that meet European EN54-24 voice alarm system requirements. These models have been carefully tuned to retain the natural musical instrument and voice reproduction quality that is a feature in all VXC-F speakers, delivering refined BGM during normal operation while providing exceptional clarity for emergency broadcasts. The ability to support both music playback and emergency broadcasts with a single speaker type contributes to reduced system complexity and cost.
*Available models: VXC5F-VA/VXC5F-VAW/VXC3F-VA/VXC3F-VAW
*VA versions are not available in some regions.
