System Overview
The ICS3 Minimal Appearance Point Source Loudspeaker has several components that make up a complete system. A complete
installation takes into account the type of ceiling surface and the size and shape of the grille opening. The finished installation
matches flush mount lighting with both a completely flush grille and a seamless aesthetic with the lighting design. The components
are:
•
ICS3-Backbox
o
ICS3-Backbox is used as part of the rough-in and preconstruction stage. It includes the mid-bass driver and
crossover.
•
ICS3-SPMD (Spiral Planar Magnetic Driver)
o
The ICS3-SPMD includes a built grille depth adjustment to allow for precise and perfectly flush appearance of the
grille. This is done through adjustment of the Magnetic Recoil Fastener (Pat. Pend) which also serves as the
magnets that hold the grille in place.
•
Mounting Platform (Gypsum or Solid Surface)
o
Surf
ace Mount Kit is available for gypsum ceilings using 1/2” or 5/8” (13mm or 16mm) drywall thickness and for
solid surface installation for all materials such as stone, wood or tile, from 3/8” to 1
-
1/4” (9.5mm to 32mm)
thickness. A routing tool is also available to help cut solid surface installations.

Grilles are available in 3” or 4” (76mm or 102mm) width and in both square and round to match lighting fixtures.
