Overview

The IsoFlare™ FC-8T is a full bandwidth, high sensitivity ceiling loudspeaker designed for the ultimate in fidelity, coverage, and aesthetics.

The IsoFlare™ FC range is the new benchmark in point source technology for prestigious commercial environments. Decades of experience from acoustic and mechanical engineers specializing in this technology have honed existing skills complemented with the very latest in design & engineering techniques to bring IsoFlare™ to the premium commercial space in an integrated package.

Unlike most ‘coax’ offerings, the IsoFlare™ driver exhibits excellent harmonic alignment between HF and LF sources, the effect of which is to deliver accurate and natural reproduction with superb tonal balance.

Propagating a spherical wavefront, homogeneously aligned on all axes, the IsoFlare™ point source driver yields an even response throughout the listening area; a constant time delay over the entire frequency spectrum providing exceptional off-axis performance.

The FC-8T is designed for applications requiring a combination of premium sonic quality for music and speech reinforcement with exceptional reliability, in an architect/designer/installer friendly solution.

Two IsoFlare™ 8" variants are available to satisfy most installation scenarios:

  • IsoFlare™ FC-8T (Blind Mount) - supplied with an integral back can, C-Ring, and Tile Bridge.
  • IsoFlare™ Pre-Install consists of 2 components:
    • FC-8DRV Pre-Install Driver - supplied without a back can.
    • FC-8TPIC Pre-wired Back Can – for separate backcan installation.
