The Extron SM 26 SpeedMount® Surface Mount Speaker is a two-way speaker with a patented, concealed wall mounting system. It features a 6.5" (16.5 cm) woofer with dual tuned ports and a 1" (2.5 cm) tweeter. The SM 26 provides a wide frequency range from 65 Hz to 19.2 kHz, and a power rating of 60 watts continuous pink noise, 120 watts continuous program capacity. The Extron-exclusive mounting system is designed to accommodate division-of-labor installations and save costs. The SM 26 is available as an 8 ohm model, and an SM 26T version that can operate in 8 ohm direct as well as 70 volt and 100 volt modes. The SM 26T features a six-position power tap selector, which can conveniently be accessed through the grille from outside the speaker. The innovative mounting system allows the SM 26 to slide onto the mount and lock into place. In the same installation step, the integrated electrical contacts on the speaker automatically mate with the pre-wired contacts on the mounting plate to speed up and simplify installation. The SM 26 saves time and installation costs for AV system contractors working with low-voltage contractors in a division-oflabor installation. During rough-in, a low-voltage contractor installs the mounting system on the wall and terminates the speaker cable to the mount’s integrated wiring contacts. Later, the AV system contractor completes the installation by sliding the SM 26 onto the mount.
