The MartinLogan IC6 is part of the Installer Series, offering high-performance, affordable, ultra-low-profile in-ceiling speakers. It features a 0.75-inch titanium dome tweeter and a 6.5-inch mineral-filled polypropylene cone woofer, with a paintable micro-perf bezel-free grille for nearly invisible installation. Equipped with a robust mounting-lock system, spring-loaded binding posts accepting up to 12AWG wire, and MartinLogan’s proprietary Vojtko crossover topology for low distortion and seamless driver integration. Ideal for whole-house audio or home theater surround effects, it measures smaller than 9 inches when installed.
