Architectural Acoustics by Peavey introduced the new PHR Series loudspeakers, designed specifically for compact, in-ceiling operation in permanent installations, at the 2009 InfoComm show in Orlando.

The Architectural Acoustics PHR Series ceiling-mount enclosures are designed to provide high-intelligibility voice, program music and versatile signal reproduction in commercial, industrial and institutional applications.

A tap selector switch allows for easy system tuning and configuration for 70-volt or 100-volt distributed systems, and a full selection of taps up to 60 watts (model dependent) and an 8- ohm transformer bypass setting are included for maximum system versatility.

The UL-compliant enclosure is constructed of high-impact, injection-molded plastic and includes a press-fitted grille design that blends well with contemporary architecture. PHR Series enclosures are housed in steel backing cans and include two color-coded, screw-locked flying leads in a wiring chamber to allow for easy system wiring and daisy-chain wiring to additional PHR enclosures.

A C-shaped backing plate support and tile bridge brackets are included.
