The AtlasIED M1000-W is a professional 70.7V sound masking speaker assembly designed for commercial open-ceiling installations, plenum spaces, and air-handling environments. Featuring a factory-assembled 8-inch dual-cone loudspeaker, high-efficiency transformer, and durable white epoxy-finished enclosure, the M1000-W provides consistent reproduction of sound masking signals for offices and other commercial facilities.
Engineered to deliver masking audio into ceiling plenums, the M1000-W features a 734-cubic-inch enclosure designed to extend low-frequency response. Its 8-inch dual-cone loudspeaker provides a specified frequency response of 100Hz–10kHz, making it suitable for professionally designed sound masking systems.
The integrated 70.7V transformer includes selectable 0.25W, 0.5W, 1W, 2W, and 4W taps, allowing installers to adjust speaker output during system commissioning. An external tap selector simplifies level adjustments without requiring access to the internal transformer.
For installation flexibility, the AtlasIED M1000-W includes EZ hang mounting brackets with collapsible plated hangers. These brackets support upward-, downward-, and side-firing configurations, helping installers position the speaker according to the requirements of the sound masking design.
The M1000-W is UL 1480 and UL 2043 listed, supporting installation in appropriate plenum and air-handling applications.
Important: The AtlasIED M1000-W is a passive sound masking loudspeaker assembly. A compatible sound masking generator and 70.7V amplifier are required for operation and are sold separately.
Designed for Commercial Sound Masking Systems
Sound masking systems introduce a controlled background sound to help reduce the intelligibility of conversations and minimize distractions in occupied spaces.
The AtlasIED M1000-W is designed to reproduce these masking signals through a distributed loudspeaker network.
When properly designed and calibrated, a sound masking system can help improve speech privacy and reduce distracting conversations in open-plan offices and other commercial environments.
The M1000-W is particularly useful in facilities with open ceilings or accessible plenum spaces where conventional ceiling-mounted loudspeakers may not be the preferred installation method.
Its enclosed design helps support consistent acoustic performance as part of a professionally configured sound masking system.
8-Inch Dual-Cone Loudspeaker with Extended Low-Frequency Response
The M1000-W incorporates an 8-inch dual-cone loudspeaker housed in a 734-cubic-inch enclosure.
This enclosure is designed to support extended low-frequency performance, an important consideration when reproducing sound masking signals.
The speaker provides a specified 100Hz–10kHz frequency response, along with sensitivity ratings of 97dB peak and 94dB average.
These characteristics support the controlled reproduction of masking audio in commercial installations.
Proper speaker placement, signal processing, and system calibration are essential for achieving effective and consistent masking coverage.
Adjustable 70.7V Transformer Taps
The AtlasIED M1000-W includes a high-efficiency transformer designed for 70.7V distributed audio systems.
Its external tap selector provides the following power settings:
-
0.25 watts
-
0.5 watts
-
1 watt
-
2 watts
-
4 watts
An 8-ohm connection option is also specified.
These settings allow installers to adjust individual speaker output levels to match the acoustic requirements of different areas.
Lower transformer tap settings can be useful in locations requiring reduced masking levels, while higher settings provide additional available output.
The external tap selector makes it easier to fine-tune speaker levels during installation and system commissioning.
EZ Hang Brackets for Flexible Installation
The AtlasIED M1000-W includes the manufacturer's EZ hang mounting system, designed to simplify installation in commercial ceiling spaces.
Collapsible plated hangers provide flexibility when positioning the loudspeaker assembly.
Supported mounting orientations include:
Upward-Firing Installation
Directs masking audio toward the overhead plenum or ceiling structure as specified by the system design.
Downward-Firing Installation
Provides an alternative orientation for installations requiring sound to be directed toward the occupied space.
Side-Firing Installation
Offers additional placement flexibility where structural conditions or acoustic requirements favor a horizontal orientation.
These mounting options help installers accommodate different ceiling configurations while maintaining the intended sound masking coverage.
Plenum-Rated Construction and Secure Wiring
The M1000-W is designed for installation in appropriate commercial plenum and air-handling spaces.
Its enclosure includes an input cover with knockouts that accommodate compatible rigid or flexible conduit connections.
The input design also supports through-connections, helping simplify wiring across distributed speaker installations.
An integral wire strain relief provides additional cable security at the enclosure.
The M1000-W carries UL 1480 and UL 2043 listings, supporting use in applicable commercial audio installations where these safety standards are required.
Installers should follow local electrical and building codes when mounting and wiring the speaker.
White Epoxy Finish for Commercial Installations
The M1000-W features a white epoxy finish, making it suitable for installations where a lighter equipment finish is preferred.
The white enclosure can help the speaker blend with light-colored structural ceilings and surrounding equipment.
Its preassembled construction includes the loudspeaker, transformer, enclosure, baffle, and mounting hardware, reducing the amount of assembly required at the installation site.
