Desono DX-IC4-W High Efficiency Coaxial In-Ceiling Loudspeaker

Compact Ceiling Speaker with Professional Performance

The Desono DX-IC4-W is a compact, high-efficiency in-ceiling loudspeaker designed to deliver clarity and coverage well beyond its size. This 4.5-inch coaxial speaker is ideal for paging, background music, or supplementing full-range systems in larger installations. Though it’s the smallest member of the Desono DX family, it maintains the sonic quality and consistency of its larger counterparts, making it a flexible and effective solution for commercial sound environments.

Consistent Sound Across the Product Family

One of the standout features of the DX-IC4-W is its tonal match with the entire Desono DX series. This uniform voicing makes it easy to integrate with other Desono speakers in a system without tonal imbalance. Whether you're deploying it as a standalone speaker in a small zone or as a fill speaker in a larger installation, it maintains the same smooth sound signature.

Coaxial Design for Clearer Audio and Higher Output

The DX-IC4-W features a true coaxial driver design with separate magnets for the low and high frequency components. This architecture minimizes distortion and improves clarity, delivering up to 6dB more output than comparable models—all while requiring less power. That makes it not only a sonically superior choice, but also a cost-effective one in terms of amplification needs.

Streamlined Installation with SpringLock Mounting System

Installing the DX-IC4-W is fast and hassle-free thanks to its SpringLock™ mounting clamps. These patent-pending clamps allow for one-handed installation, with built-in support for tile rails and a snap-on C-ring. The result is a secure fit that dramatically reduces labor time and simplifies overhead installs in drop ceilings.

Installer-Friendly Features for Versatile Applications

Designed with the installer in mind, the DX-IC4-W includes a magnetic grille and a front-face wattage selector switch for easy tap setting adjustments in 70V/100V distributed systems. Its attractive, edgeless grille blends seamlessly into modern ceiling designs, while knock-outs on the input cover meet plenum space code requirements. This speaker is ideal for retail, hospitality, education, and commercial offices where clarity and aesthetics both matter.
