Affordable in-ceiling sound
Affordable in-ceiling sound
Nuvo's NV-2IC6 in-ceiling speakers are an excellent, value-packed option for custom-installed sound systems. These speakers offer an affordable way to start an "invisible" two-channel music system in your listening room. Or you can add the pair as "height" channels to your existing home theater setup and add immersive Atmos® effects.
Each speaker features a 6-1/2" polypropylene woofer that deals out tight, controlled bass and mids, and a 1/2" silk dome tweeter for smooth highs. Together, those drivers deliver impactful sound that adds energy to your favorite films, TV shows, and games.

Features
2-Way Driver Design: The Legrand Nuvo Series Two NV-2IC6 in-ceiling loudspeaker utilizes a two-way driver design, featuring a 0.5" silk soft-dome tweeter that pivots and one 6.5" poly cone woofer with a butyl rubber surround. The pivoting tweeter is mounted to a unique bridge and allows you to aim the tweeter at your targeted listening area (approximately 10°).
Applications: The Nuvo Series Two NV-2IC6 in-ceiling loudspeaker serves well for home theater, two-channel stereo, and distributed audio applications. Thanks to its pivoting tweeter, the NV-2IC6 can be used as a front, center, and/or surround speaker in a home theater application.
Magnetic Grille: The Nuvo NV-2IC6 comes with a low-profile, rimless grille that attaches magnetically to the front-baffle of the in-ceiling speaker. The grille features a white finish, but can be painted to match your ceiling. The low-profile, magnetic grille only protrudes 0.1875" from the ceiling.
Spring-Clip Terminals: The Nuvo NV-2IC6 in-ceiling loudspeaker is outfitted with a set of spring-clip terminals to attach bare speaker wire (up to 12AWG) or pin-connectors.
Mounting Options: The Series Two NV-2IC6 requires a circular cutout in the ceiling that measures 8.0625" (diameter) x 3.9375" (depth). Three swivel "dog-leg" clamps with integrated mounting screws secure the speaker in the ceiling. There needs to be at least 0.75" of clearance around the inside of the cutout to accommodate the swivel "dog-leg" clamps. The "dog-leg" clamps will accommodate up to 1.5" drywall thickness.

Great speakers for the money! I used them as Atmos height channels and so far I'm very happy with their performance. Very easy to install also. They come with a template and simple directions. Highly recommend
