Quam SOLUTION 1 Indoor Ceiling Mountable Speaker - 20 W RMS
The SOLUTION 1 is a complete ceiling-installation audio package that merges high-quality loudspeakers, a built-in transformer, and a precision baffle into one install-ready solution. Designed for commercial and light-industrial indoor spaces, this system offers reliable, evenly distributed sound with minimal installation effort. Each installer package includes two 8C10PAX dual-cone loudspeakers with an 8 Ω impedance and a powerful 10 oz magnet, paired with a 5 W 25/70 V transformer (TBLU) mounted on a BR8WS round steel stud-mount baffle. This all-in-one ceiling audio solution is designed to deliver consistent, evenly dispersed sound in classrooms, cafes, offices, retail spaces, and other indoor environments. The compact form factor and integrated components reduce both installation time and the number of separate parts required, making SOLUTION 1 a practical choice for projects that demand reliable performance without complexity. By combining the drivers, transformer, and baffle into a single package, Quam SOLUTION 1 simplifies procurement and installation while ensuring predictable coverage and intelligibility across zones.
- Two included C10X/BU/WS loudspeakers: 8 Ω dual-cone drivers (8C10PAX) with a 10 oz magnet deliver crisp highs, solid midrange, and clear intelligibility for speech and background music alike. The dual-cone design promotes even dispersion and minimizes tonal coloration, making it suitable for multi-seat areas and spaces with varied listening positions. This setup provides reliable performance for announcements, presentations, and ambient music, while maintaining a clean ceiling silhouette.
- Integrated transformer: TBLU 5 W 25/70 V transformer built into the package, enabling easy support for distributed audio in indoor spaces using 25 V or 70 V line configurations. This reduces wiring complexity and allows scalable spacing across larger rooms or multiple zones, so a single amplifier can serve multiple speakers with consistent level matching.
- BR8WS baffle: Round steel stud-mount baffle provides a secure ceiling installation and a clean, low-profile aesthetic that blends with most ceiling finishes. The sturdy construction resists fatigue from installation and provides dependable support for the two loudspeakers, while the rounded form minimizes visual disruption and enhances the overall interior look.
- Ceiling-mount design: A compact in-ceiling footprint minimizes visual intrusion while projecting sound into the room with even dispersion suited for speech-first environments. The architecture is optimized to deliver intelligible dialogue across seating rows and work zones, making it ideal for classrooms, retail spaces, restaurants, and office reception areas where clear communication is essential.
- Power and performance: 20 W RMS total output for the installer package, designed to provide reliable coverage for typical rooms and light-commercial spaces. The pairing of two loudspeakers on a shared transformer yields consistent SPL across listening positions and supports a comfortable ambient level for background music, presentations, and announcements without overpowering the environment.

How to install Quam SOLUTION 1 Indoor Ceiling Mountable Speaker
- Plan and prepare: Identify an appropriate ceiling location with accessible joists and sufficient clearance for the BR8WS baffle. Confirm that the installation site can accommodate 25 V/70 V distributed audio wiring and that there is space for the two speakers and the transformer. Verify that power is turned off at the breaker before starting any ceiling work.
- Choose the line configuration: Decide whether you will operate the system on a 25 V or 70 V distribution. Set the TBLU transformer accordingly to match your amplifier or mixer’s output, ensuring the load is correctly distributed across the two loudspeakers for consistent levels throughout the room.
- Install the baffle: Secure the BR8WS round steel stud-mount baffle into the ceiling opening, ensuring a flush, level fit that will support the two loudspeakers and maintain a clean appearance once mounted. Use appropriate hardware rated for the ceiling construction and check for any obstacles behind the ceiling plane before finalizing.
- Route and connect wiring: Run the distribution line from the amplifier to the transformer input, taking care to route cables neatly and protect them from damage. Connect the two loudspeakers to the transformer taps according to the 25 V/70 V configuration and the impedance requirements, following the manufacturer’s guidelines to avoid mismatches or overheating.
- Mount the speakers and finalize: Install the two C10X/BU/WS loudspeakers into their cutouts within the BR8WS baffle, verify alignment, and secure the mounting hardware. Reconnect the power, power on the system, and test audio across different seating positions to confirm even coverage, intelligibility, and an appropriate balance between dialogue and background music.
