Ceiling speaker with built-in amplifier

The Valcom V-1420 is an 8-inch ceiling speaker that includes a 6 W RMS amplifier and a pop-on volume control knob. It reproduces frequencies from 60 Hz to 20 kHz through an 8-ohm driver and a 3-inch tweeter. The white epoxy-finished steel grille fits a 13-inch square cutout with a minimum depth of 3 inches.

Upgrade from passive ceiling speakers

This model replaces separate amplifier-and-speaker combinations by integrating amplification into the speaker housing. The jump is worthwhile when you want high-fidelity music, tone and voice reproduction without running dedicated speaker cables back to a central amplifier. Standard CAT 3, 5 or 6 wiring carries both power and audio signals to the unit.

Fits standard ceiling installations

The speaker mounts flush in a 13-inch square opening and requires only structured cabling already used for data or telecom. Its built-in volume knob with detachable control lets occupants adjust level locally, freeing up rack space that a central amplifier would occupy. The 5.2 lb weight is supported by typical ceiling joists without additional reinforcement.

Questions about this item

What ceiling cut-out size fits the 13-inch square frame of the V-1420?

The speaker frame measures 13 inches square, so cut a matching 13-by-13-inch hole in the ceiling tile or drywall before mounting.

How do you connect the V-1420 to standard telecom or data wiring?

Strip CAT 3, 5 or 6 cable and attach the conductors to the speaker terminals; the built-in 6 W amplifier then drives the 8-ohm load directly.

When should the white epoxy-finished steel grille be cleaned or replaced?

Wipe the grille with a dry cloth whenever dust builds up; replace it only if the finish is scratched or the grille is physically damaged.
