Frequently Asked Questions - VSA-1020C Valcom
How do I wire the VSA-1020C for 70V operation?
Connect the speaker's transformer primary to the 70V line using the appropriate tap (5W, 2.5W, or 1.25W). The secondary connects to the driver at the 8 ohm tap. Ensure the total load does not exceed the amplifier's power rating.
Can I use this speaker with a standard home amplifier?
Yes, if set to the 8 ohm mode. The speaker has an impedance selector or you can wire directly to the 8 ohm input instead of the transformer taps. However, it is primarily designed for commercial 70V/100V systems.
What is the recommended ceiling cutout size?
The cutout diameter is 7.0 inches (178 mm). The speaker includes mounting tabs to secure it in the ceiling.
Is the VSA-1020C suitable for outdoor use?
No, it is designed for indoor use only. The speaker is not weatherproof and should be protected from moisture.
How do I adjust the volume of an individual speaker?
In 70V systems, you select the transformer tap wattage: higher tap = louder. In 8 ohm mode, volume is controlled by the amplifier.
What is the frequency response of the VSA-1020C?
It ranges from 70 Hz to 20 kHz, making it suitable for full-range music and paging applications.
Can I paint the speaker grille?
Yes, the white grille is paintable. Remove the grille, clean it, and apply a thin coat of latex paint. Avoid clogging the holes.
Does the speaker come with a warranty?
Yes, Valcom offers a 2-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
What is the maximum power handling?
The speaker can handle up to 10 watts RMS at 8 ohms. At 70V, maximum tap is 5W for continuous use.
How do I clean the speaker?
Use a soft, dry cloth to dust the grille and housing. Do not use water or cleaning solvents. Avoid touching the cone.
