Tru Audio pp-6-element Weatherproof In-ceiling Speaker 90W

Product Description

The TRU AUDIO pp-6-element is a weatherproof 2-way in-ceiling speaker built for environments where moisture, humidity, and corrosion exposure are ongoing concerns. It pairs a 6.5-inch polypropylene woofer with a 1-inch silk dome tweeter to deliver full-range audio from 52 Hz to 20 kHz at plus or minus 3 dB. Rated at 90 watts with a sensitivity of 90 dB, the pp-6-element is engineered for covered patios, bathrooms, kitchens, and coastal installations where standard indoor speakers would fail prematurely. Licensed electricians and low-voltage audio installers are the primary trades who spec and install this unit.

The pp-6-element is suited for residential and light commercial applications in protected outdoor spaces and humid indoor environments. Covered patio systems, poolside cabana ceilings, bathroom ceilings, and kitchen soffits are all common install locations. Its element coating is designed to resist moisture, rust, corrosion, and salt air, making it appropriate for coastal properties where speaker degradation from airborne salt exposure is a recurring service issue. The ghost-style frameless grill maintains a clean ceiling appearance in finished interior spaces.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified low-voltage audio installer in accordance with applicable NEC guidelines for speaker wiring in wet or damp locations. Power down the amplifier or receiver before making any wiring connections. The cutout diameter required is 8.2 inches, and the finish flange measures 8.9 inches in diameter by 3.4 inches deep, so verify ceiling cavity depth before cutting. Do not install in fully exposed outdoor locations without a protective overhang, as this speaker is rated for covered or protected spaces only.
