KPH-525 KPH-650 KPH-800

The Klipsch family of pendant housings are designed specifically to accept the Klipsch IC series of 70/100 volt in-ceiling commercial loudspeakers. A pendant style speaker can be a perfect distributed sound solution for hospitality or retail environment in areas where high ceilings or a lack of a suspended ceiling make in-ceiling speakers a challenge for direct, overhead sound coverage. A pendant speaker can also provide a certain aesthetic solution when blended with similar lighting styles. With their Tractrix Horn-loaded design, the use of Klipsch IC Series speakers inside the housing provides both higher efficiency for increases output and reduced distortion for greater sound clarity and very even coverage patterns.

The pendant housings should be used with the following in-ceiling speaker models:

KPH-525: IC-400-T, IC-500-T-SC, IC-525-T

KPH-650: IC-650-T

KPH-800: IC-800-T & IC-SW-8T2

INSTALLATION

1. Run speaker wire through housing top and out bottom and attach to Klipsch IC speaker. See IC owner's manual for 70 volt or 8 ohm wiring directions.

INSTALLATION

1. Thread bare end of the 9.5 foot drop cable through one channel of the fastlink wire joiner, through or around the ceiling anchor point, then back through the opposite channel of the wire joiner to connect the cable and lock it into the joiner

1. Thread the bare end of a safety cable (not included) through one channel of a second wire joiner (not included), through or around a different ceiling anchor point then through the opposite channel of the wire joiner used. Attach its eyelet into a carabiner, s-hook, etc. (not included) and attached to the speaker seismic tab. Make sure the suspended speaker's weight is held entirely by the drop cable.

FASTLINE FASTLINE

INSTALLATION

1. Wrap speaker wire up around the drop cable and connect to source. Connect safety cable to nearest suspension wire and drop cable using twist or zip ties for aesthetic appeal. If desired, encase drop cable wrapped with speaker wire and attached safety cable in a plastic conduit.

FASTLINK FASTLINK

A speaker's sensitivity specification gives you its Sound Pressure Level (SPL) output at one meter with one watt input. The accompanying illustration shows how you can determine SPL output at a given distance based on the following constants that apply to sound:

1. Every time you DOUBLE THE POWER input to a speaker you increase its SPL by 3dB.
2. Every time you DOUBLE THE DISTANCE from a speaker you lose 6dB of SPL.

Background Music Levels-SPL levels usually 3-6dB above ambient sounds, approximately 70-85dB SPL's.

Foreground Music Levels-10dB+ above ambient sounds, approximately 85-95dB SPL's.

Use an SPL meter during the businesses' peak traffic hours to determine ambient levels.

Speaker Sensitivity: 89 dB If speaker wattage tap is 3.8 watts

1 meter = 94 dB SPL

2 meters = 88 dB SPL

4 meters = 82 dB SPL

1 meter = 3.3 ft

Space speakers according to their coverage patterns and NOT their polar patterns. Speaker coverage patterns grow wider as their distances increase.

Although overlapping speaker coverage patterns provide very consistent SPL's over the entire area, they involve using more speakers for a higher system cost. An "Edge-To-Edge" pattern is more common using less speakers, especially with Background Music Systems.

Overlap Spacing Ideal, but higher cost
