Yamaha VC6B 6.5-inch woofer and 0.8-inch tweeter. Black. Single.
Premium Sounding Compact Ceiling Speakers at a Non-Premium Price.
VC series ceiling speakers for commercial installations deliver excellent sound quality at a price point traditionally reserved for economy speakers. A total of six models, three with back cans and three without, feature elegant low-profile designs that can be install easily even in limited ceiling or wall spaces. Large mounting clamps with non-slip treads ensure secure mounting.
Recommended Applications
Wide coverage area with many speakers installed, such as shopping mall, office buildings, restaurant, healthcare facilities, and transportation terminals.

- Single unit package
Versatile lineup for a variety of requirements
Six models, three with back cans and three without, offer compatibility with a wide range of installation needs. Models that do not have back cans are more lightweight and budget friendly, and include back covers that protect the speaker unit and circuitry from dust and moisture.
Extremely Low-profile
Reduced physical depth allows installation in ceilings and walls where space is limited.
Elegant design blends with any décor
Several aspects of VC Series design reflect a strong emphasis on functionality as well as aesthetics.
Shallow, lightweight, and flexible design can easily adapt to the strictest installation limitations, ensuring superb audio performance wherever they’re placed without spoiling interior design.
High-impedance and low-impedance supported
Both high-impedance and low-impedance connections are supported, and speaker wattage can be easily switched even after installation.
So not only can a large number of speakers be installed with a high-impedance connection, but also a large number of speakers can be installed with a low-impedance connection due to its 16-ohm capacity. And the need for additional units is minimized and systems can be designed to ideally meet the requirements of any application.
Safer, Faster Installation
The VC Series ceiling speakers feature low profile back cans, light weight, and mechanical features that contribute to significantly safer, faster installation. In addition, large mounting clamps with non-slip treads ensure secure mounting.
Fast
Double threaded screws used for the speaker clamp mechanism allow the clamps to be tightened twice as fast as conventional screws.
Paintable
The supplied grilles can be painted any color to match interior decor.
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.
