Paging Horn/

Ceiling Speaker

June 12, 2000

Cost Effective Speakers for

Indoor and Outdoor Use

The 25AE and 30AE paging speakers provide additional economical paging coverage to existing

Viking paging units (PA-2A, CPA-7B, HF-3W,

M2W) or to any system with an 8 ohm output.

25AE

In outdoor, factory or warehouse environments,

25AE paging horns are the best method of producing understandable sound. In these aisles and toward work areas.

In office and restaurant environments, it is best to distribute sound more evenly. Ceiling mounted 30AE speakers in close proximity offer the best distribution and are cost effective.
