Yamaha VXC6 2-Way Ceiling Mountable Speaker – 75 W RMS – Black

The Yamaha VXC6 is a versatile, high-performance 2-way ceiling and surface mount speaker designed for professional installations where clear, intelligible sound is essential. Built to deliver Yamaha’s renowned audio accuracy in a compact form, the VXC6 blends unobtrusive aesthetics with robust engineering for reliable performance in classrooms, retail spaces, corporate environments, houses of worship, and more. Whether you’re outfitting a conference room, a multi-zone AV system, or a retail storefront, this speaker provides consistent coverage, easy installation, and enduring durability that installers value. With a focus on safety, ease of mounting, and dependable sound, the Yamaha VXC6 stands out as a practical solution for modern sound reinforcement projects.

• 2-Way design for clear speech and audio clarity: The VXC6 employs a two-way configuration that reproduces crisp highs and solid midrange, delivering intelligible speech in dialogue-heavy venues and presenting music with natural warmth. This balance makes it ideal for background music in commercial settings and for presenting content in classrooms or meeting spaces, where every word must be heard with precision.
• Powerful yet efficient performance (75 W RMS): Engineered to provide ample headroom for medium-sized rooms, the 75 W RMS rating ensures clean, distortion-free output even at higher listening levels. The system maintains consistent SPL across coverage areas, helping to minimize hotspots and dead zones in larger installations.
• Flexible mounting options for ceiling and surface installations: The VXC6 is designed with installation flexibility in mind. It supports both ceiling mounting for a discreet, integrated look and surface mounting when ceiling work is impractical. This adaptability is particularly beneficial in retrofit projects or spaces where ceiling access is limited, ensuring you can achieve even coverage without compromising the room’s design.
• Rugged construction and contemporary finish: Housed in a durable enclosure with a sleek black finish, the VXC6 is built to endure demanding environments. Its robust materials resist wear and maintain a professional appearance over time, while the compact form minimizes visual intrusion in focused spaces like classrooms and retail displays.
• Designed for safe, straightforward installation: Yamaha’s engineering emphasizes safe handling and simple setup. The VXC6 integrates smoothly with common installation practices, reducing labor time and risk during mounting, wiring, and aiming procedures. The result is a dependable, maintainable speaker that installers can trust for reliable results in commercial and institutional settings.

How to install Yamaha VXC6

• Plan perimeter coverage and determine ideal mounting locations to achieve even sound distribution across the target area. Consider room geometry and reflective surfaces to minimize dead zones.
• Prepare mounting hardware and brackets that are compatible with the VXC6 and your mounting surface. Verify structural support and confirm that ceiling joists or wall studs can bear the weight with a safety margin.
• Install the mounting bracket securely to the chosen surface or ceiling, ensuring it is level and firmly anchored. Tighten all fasteners and verify the bracket can support the speaker without any wobble.
• Run the speaker cable with proper routing, keeping cabling organized and away from power lines to reduce interference. Use appropriate strain relief and sealant where necessary to maintain fire rating and safety standards.
• Connect the VXC6 to the amplifier or receiver, observe proper polarity, and perform a low-volume test to confirm phase alignment and coverage before final positioning. Fine-tune aiming if needed for optimal intelligibility and even SPL distribution.
• Mount the speaker to the bracket, secure all mounting points, and perform a final sound check. If the installation calls for multiple units, repeat the process and calibrate with a system EQ or DSP to balance levels across zones.
• Conceal wiring and hardware per local code requirements, using plenum-rated cable paths or raceways as necessary. Ensure accessibility for future maintenance without compromising aesthetics.
