Frequently Asked Questions - Vector CD1565-RH Crestron
How do I install the CD1565-RH in a ceiling?
Cut a 210 mm (8.27 in) hole in the ceiling, route the speaker wire, and rotate the dog-ear clamps to tighten the speaker into place. Connect the wire to the push terminals before inserting the unit.
What is the difference between 70V and 8-ohm operation?
The speaker has a built-in 70V/100V transformer. Use 8-ohm mode for direct connection to a low-impedance amplifier. Select 70V operation when connecting to a constant-voltage system, choosing a tap based on required SPL.
Can I paint the speaker grille to match my ceiling?
Yes, the grille is paintable. Before painting, remove it from the speaker, clean it, apply a thin coat of latex paint, and let it dry completely. The included paint shield protects the driver during painting.
What is the recommended amplifier power for this speaker?
For 8-ohm operation, an amplifier delivering 30–60 W RMS per channel is suitable. In 70V mode, choose a transformer tap matching the amplifier’s available power.
How far apart should two CD1565-RH speakers be placed?
For even coverage, space speakers approximately 2–3 times the ceiling height apart. For a 2.7 m (9 ft) ceiling, that’s about 5.4–8.1 m (18–27 ft) between centers.
Does this speaker require a back box?
A back box is optional. It can improve low-frequency response and prevent sound leakage to adjacent rooms. Use a Crestron back box rated for 6.5-inch ceiling speakers if needed.
How do I select the correct transformer tap for a 70V system?
Determine the desired sound pressure level and distance. For background music, start with a 5–10 W tap; for foreground music, use 20–40 W. Set the tap to the lowest setting that provides adequate volume.
What is the best way to clean the speaker and grille?
Use a dry, soft cloth on the woofer and tweeter. For the grille, vacuum with a brush attachment or gently wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid liquid cleaners directly on the driver.
Can the CD1565-RH be used outdoors?
No, this loudspeaker is designed for indoor use. It is not weatherproof and could be damaged by direct exposure to humidity or water.
What tools are needed for installation?
You need a drywall saw, wire strippers, a screwdriver for the dog-ear clamps, and a pencil for marking. A stud finder helps avoid obstructions in the ceiling.
