This ensures LBC 3603/01 Wave Guide Grille extra reliability under extreme conditions, leading to The LBC 3603/01 wave guide grille is a breakthrough higher customer satisfaction, longer operating life, and in ceiling loudspeaker technology. It ensures a wide much less chance of failure or performance and equal spread of the important frequency octaves deterioration. All plastic parts are self extinguishing for speech intelligibility and music clarity, giving the according to UL 94 V0. MCS 3500 constant directivity. Fewer loudspeakers are needed to cover a given area, and the noticeable Safety acc. to EN 60065 ‘fading’ that can occur as a listener walks from one loudspeaker to another area is eliminated.

The grille features quick bayonet fittings for securing to the loudspeaker frames. *Only in combination with the LBC 3665/00 Back Box. LBC 3665/00 Back Box The LBC 3665/00 back box can be secured onto the Region Certification back of the loudspeaker frame (fitted as standard on the 24 W LBC 3530/40). This results in a bass reflex Europe CE Declaration of Conformity enclosure for very predictable sound quality. The Poland CNBOP better controlled cone excursion gives less distortion of low frequencies at higher power. It also prevents CNBOP sound traveling via the ceiling cavity to adjacent areas, fully protects the loudspeaker from dust and makes Installation/Configuration Notes the unit vermin proof. Installation LBC 3650/00 Metal Fire Dome The MCS 3500 series is very installation friendly.
