SYSTEM DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS
The patented Strategy Series (U.S. Patent #5206464) loudspeaker system was carefully engi-
neered to provide excellent audio performance as well as optimum aesthetic and installation
advantages in new or existing construction. The innovative system, which uses matched audio
components, includes loudspeakers, acoustic enclosures, hardware-free grilles, trim rings, plas-
ter rings and tile bridges.
Strategy Series components may be mixed and matched to provide an attractive, high-quality
and economical solution for meeting the music and voice-communication needs of owners,
architects, contractors and consultants. The wide dispersion of the 4" series loudspeakers
makes the system ideal for low-ceiling applications since fewer loudspeakers are required to
achieve proper coverage with desired sound levels. The series offers two performance levels:
standard and high-performance. Respective levels are determined by selected
loudspeaker/enclosure combination. (See below chart for recommended combinations.)
The 4" system is perfect for commercial, institutional and retail venues where high-fidelity music
and/or clear voice communication are required. Easier, faster installation and a superior overall
appearance are the three most distinguishable characteristics of the Strategy Series.
ACOUSTIC ENCLOSURES - FA97-4 SERIES AND FA95-4 SERIES
Strategy Series 4" loudspeaker enclosures are acoustically-treated, front-loading units,
equipped for installation in ceilings up to 1
1 ⁄
4
" thick. Models FA97-4 and FA95-4 feature depths
of 7 5 ⁄
8
" and 6 1 ⁄
8
", respectively. The deeper, FA97-4 allows for extended low-frequency response
and is also lined with sound-deadening, 5 ⁄
16
" thick acoustic batting (2 lb./cu.ft. density) and fea-
tures an acoustic fiber board bottom to prevent “oil canning”. Both styles are equipped with
conduit knockouts and are available without knockouts (NK) to meet respective building code
requirements. Enclosures are constructed of CRS (22-ga. top ring & 20-ga. bottom/sides),
painted and include four threaded inserts for loudspeaker installation and three stud recepta-
cles for accepting Strategy Series grilles. Both models are finished in black epoxy.
Model FA97-4 and FA95-4 install quickly and easily in plaster, drywall, or suspended tile ceil-
ings up to 1
1 ⁄
4
" thick utilizing three, easy-to-adjust rotating clamps that rotate and secure into
position with a screwdriver. The enclosures front-load Atlas Sound's 4" dia. Strategy Series
loudspeaker Models FA134 and FA114. (Refer to SL1-1533 and SL1-1524 for respective loud-
speaker specifications and loudspeaker/transformer model numbers.) This direct loudspeaker-
to-enclosure mounting method removes all load-bearing requirements from the grille, allowing
the use of welded studs for convenient, push-on grille installation — a time-saving feature
which presents a clean and hardware-free appearance. It also facilitates fast and easy grille re-
moval for painting or other maintenance.
FA97-4 Enclosures allow the high-performance coaxial FA134 and full-range FA114 loudspeakers
to achieve maximum potential. This high-quality loudspeaker/enclosure combination is perfect
for applications where high-fidelity music and intelligible speech are imperative.
FA95-4 Models are economical system enclosures with less depth than FA97-4 models. They
are suited for installations requiring quality voice transmission, music and signal reproduction in
commercial, industrial and institutional applications.
