Round Single Stereo in-ceiling speaker with a Kevlar / Nomex woofer
The Sonance VX66R SST is a round Single Stereo speaker from the Visual Experience series, built for ceiling installation: both its tweeter and its woofer have a dual voice coil.
It mounts in a circular ceiling opening and ships with a white Micro Trim grille. Like the other models in the series, it uses the Sonance CDX crossover, which the maker says keeps warmth and detail whatever the volume, together with a waveguide developed to widen coverage and make listening consistent.
Key features
- 1" dual voice coil tweeter (25 mm) using a ceramic dome, cooled by Ferrofluid, with a rear acoustic chamber
- 6.5" pivoting dual voice coil woofer (165 mm): cone in Kevlar / Nomex, surround in rubber
- Frequency response from 43 Hz to 20 kHz (+/- 3 dB)
- Power handling between 5 and 140 watts RMS
- Sensitivity of 90 dB (2.83 V at 1 m)
Installation
The cut-out is 210 mm in diameter and the mounting depth is 125 mm. The Visual Experience series allows either the standard single-stage installation or an optional two-stage one: with the latter, cabling and space reservation are done ahead of construction, and the job ends by snapping the speaker module into place.
Finishes and grilles
The supplied grille is a Micro Trim in satin Brilliant White. Three grille styles exist for the Visual Experience series: Micro Trim, Trimless and TRUFIG-mounted Trimless, the last one intended for precise alignment and a finish level with the surrounding surface.
