The SoundTube CM600i is a premium 6.5” two-way blind-mount in-ceiling speaker engineered to deliver high-performance audio with excellent low-end response and broad coverage. Featuring a polypropylene woofer and 1” aluminum tweeter with FerroFluid cooling, the CM600i ensures clear, consistent sound across the operating bandwidth (2–10 kHz, independently verified).
Its BroadBeam® waveguide technology provides maximum intelligibility and uniform edge-to-edge coverage, while the six-position tap switch with transformer bypass allows seamless integration into 25V, 70.7V, or 100V distributed audio systems. The CM600i is ideal for commercial, educational, hospitality, and public spaces where both sound quality and easy installation are paramount.
