Features
2-Way Driver Design: The Elac Vertex II Series IW-VC62-W in-wall center speaker employs a 2-way driver design featuring a 1" cloth soft-dome tweeter and two 5.25" aluminum cone woofers for well-dispersed sound.
- Cloth Soft-Dome Tweeter: The 1" custom cloth soft-dome tweeter employs a unique integrated grill design for enhanced dispersion of its smooth, extended high frequencies.
- Dual Aluminum Cone Woofers: The two 5.25" custom designed woofers use an aluminum cone due to its rigid, light weight characteristics - resulting in dynamic, accurate frequency response.
Multi-Element Crossover: A custom multi-element crossover with audio-grade components is implemented to ensure smooth transition between the the tweeter and woofer drivers.
Spring Post Terminals: The Elac Vertex II Series IW-VC52-W is outfitted with a set of spring post terminals that will accept bare wire (up to 14AWG), pin-connectors, and banana plugs (single or dual). For shorter distances up to 25', 16-gauge speaker wire will be sufficient. For longer distances, 14-gauge speaker wire is recommended.
Slim-Profile Magnetic Grille: The included slim-profile magnetic grille allows for the speaker to virtually disappear in the room. The metal mesh grille comes in a white finish, but can be painted to match your wall. The slim-profile grille protrudes from the wall approximately 0.1875".
Mounting Options: The Elac Vertex II Series IW-VC52-W requires a rectanuglar cutout in the wall that measures 16.5" (w) x 6.25" (h) x 3.3125" (d). Multiple "dog-leg" clamps secure the speaker in the cutout of your wall. Make sure to leave approximately 1.375" of clearance around the interior of the cutout to accommodate the "dog-leg" clamps. The "dog-leg" clamps are compatible with 0.125" to 0.875" thick walls. The in-wall center channe speaker should be mounted as close to ear level as possible and centered above or below your video screen.
