Overview

The DX-IC6-W is a white two-way ceiling loudspeaker with a 6.5-inch low-frequency driver and a 1-inch high-frequency driver on a coaxial layout. It delivers 120 W continuous power, offers 70V and 100V transformer taps set from the front face, and carries Zoom certification for conferencing. At 6.75 inches deep, it suits suspended ceilings in Doha meeting rooms, classrooms and lobbies. Request a quote for supply and installation.

What the DX-IC6-W is and how its drivers work

The Biamp Desono DX-IC6-W is a two-way ceiling loudspeaker in white (RAL 9016). Its 6.5-inch low-frequency driver and 1-inch high-frequency driver are arranged coaxially, so both sit on one axis and sound arrives from a single point. Each driver has its own magnet, which the manufacturer states reduces distortion and keeps output even across the band. The unit covers 90 Hz to 20 kHz and disperses sound through a 140-degree conical pattern, which helps coverage in rooms where listeners sit at different distances from the ceiling.

Power, output and transformer taps

The speaker is rated at 120 W continuous and 480 W peak, with 94 dB sensitivity at 1 W and 1 m. Maximum output is 114 dB at 1 m, rising to 124 dB peak. Transformer taps offer 70V at 60 W, 30 W, 15 W or 7.5 W, and 100V at 60 W, 30 W or 15 W. The wattage selector is on the front face, so you can change the tap during commissioning without removing the grille. Set the tap for each speaker before you connect the line, and check the total wattage on the amplifier output.

Installation planning for suspended ceilings

Cutout: 260 mm (10.25 inches) diameter, with the body measuring 291 mm (11.46 inches) across.
Depth: 171 mm (6.75 inches), so confirm the void above the tile before ordering.
Weight: 3.63 kg (8.0 lb) per unit.
Fixing: SpringLock clamps grip the back can on tile rails, and a snap-on C-ring lets one installer place the unit.
Finish: RAL 9016 white, with a magnetic grille.

The DX-IC6-W is listed for indoor use only, and the source data does not give an operating temperature range. Qatar summers can push ceiling voids well above room temperature, so keep the speaker in conditioned spaces and ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to confirm void conditions before installation.

Where it fits in Qatar

A boardroom in West Bay, where far-end voices from a Zoom call with teams abroad need to fill the room evenly from the ceiling.
A training centre in Education City, with units along a corridor of classrooms for paging and short voice announcements.
An events space in Lusail, where the speaker carries announcements and background music while the layout stays low-profile.

Planning your order

Before the order is confirmed we offer a free site survey to check ceiling voids, tile rail positions and cable routes. Quotations are usually issued within one working day. Government ministries, schools and companies can order against a purchase order (LPO) or a government tender, and payment is possible by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. If the room needs deeper bass, the DX-IC10SUB subwoofer is designed to pair with this speaker, so ask us to include it in the same quotation.

Questions about Desono DX-IC6

What is the Biamp Desono DX-IC6-W used for?

It is a two-way ceiling loudspeaker for paging, background music and voice reproduction in commercial interiors. The manufacturer lists conference rooms, corporate meeting rooms, auditoriums, malls and airports among its common applications. Because it is Zoom certified and has a 140-degree conical dispersion, it suits meeting rooms where far-end audio from video calls must reach everyone at the table. Request a quote if you are planning a single room or a full floor.

How does the white DX-IC6-W differ from the black DX-IC6-B?

The two share the same drivers, power rating, transformer taps and mounting dimensions. The difference is the finish: the DX-IC6-W is RAL 9016 white, while the DX-IC6-B is RAL 9017 black. Choose white where the ceiling is white or off-white, so the grille blends in. Confirm the finish with your interior design team before ordering, because a mix of white and black units in one room will be visible.

What ceiling cutout and void depth does the DX-IC6-W need?

The cutout diameter is 260 mm (10.25 inches). The body measures 291 mm (11.46 inches) across and 171 mm (6.75 inches) deep. Before you order, check that the void above the tile has enough depth for the back can, the cable and the clamps. Our free site survey confirms tile type and void depth for schools, offices and hotels across Qatar before installation begins.

Can I change the power tap without taking the grille off?

Yes. The front-face wattage selector switches between 70V and 100V tap levels without removing the grille. The 70V tap offers 60 W, 30 W, 15 W or 7.5 W, and the 100V tap offers 60 W, 30 W or 15 W. Set the tap to match the amplifier output and the number of speakers on the line. This makes it practical to adjust levels after handover, when a facilities team needs to change coverage.

Does the DX-IC6-W work with Zoom in a boardroom in West Bay?

The manufacturer states that the DX-IC6-W is Zoom certified, so it is a suitable choice for a West Bay boardroom that runs Zoom calls with teams abroad. The speaker carries far-end audio into the room, while microphones and the video system are separate purchases. Ask us to quote the complete conferencing set so the speaker, amplifier and microphones match the room size and seating layout.

Can it be installed in a sun-exposed lobby or under an outdoor canopy in summer?

No. The DX-IC6-W is listed for indoor operating environments only, so it should not be installed under an outdoor canopy or in a space exposed to direct sun. The source data does not give an operating temperature range, so we do not state one. Summer heat in Qatar above 45°C can raise ceiling void temperatures, so confirm the conditions with the SmartRooms Qatar team before fitting it in a lobby or atrium.

How heavy is it, and how is it fixed to a suspended ceiling in a school corridor?

Each unit weighs 3.63 kg (8.0 lb). SpringLock clamps hold the back can on the tile rails, and a snap-on C-ring lets one installer position the speaker without a second person. For an Education City training corridor with many units, this shortens fixing time and keeps the grilles aligned. Plan spacing with the facilities team and confirm tile rail positions during the free site survey.

Can I add a subwoofer for more bass in music-heavy spaces?

Yes. The manufacturer states that the DX-IC6-W pairs with the DX-IC10SUB subwoofer to extend low-frequency response for both music and voice. The speaker's own operating range is 90 Hz to 20 kHz. A subwoofer is useful in a hotel lobby, restaurant or atrium where background music needs more body. Ask for both products in one quotation so the amplifier and wiring are planned together.

How loud can it play in a large events space in Lusail?

The DX-IC6-W has 94 dB sensitivity at 1 W and 1 m, with a maximum output of 114 dB at 1 m and 124 dB peak. It is rated at 120 W continuous and 480 W peak. For an events space in Lusail, the number of units and their tap settings matter more than any single speaker, so the layout should be designed from the room size and expected crowd. Request a quote and send us floor plans.

We are fitting out a school hall in Al Wakrah. How do we order several units?

Send us the hall plan, the ceiling type and the number of units. We offer a free site survey, and quotations are usually issued within one working day. Schools can order against a purchase order (LPO), and the units are covered by the manufacturer's 5-year warranty. Lead times are estimates based on stock and are confirmed in the quotation, so ask for the date that applies to your quantity.

Can a government ministry buy the DX-IC6-W through a tender?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar supplies government ministries and authorities, including purchases through government tenders such as Monaqasat. Payment can be made by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. The DX-IC6-W carries the manufacturer's 5-year warranty, and its listed compliance standards, including UL1480, UL2043, CSA62368-1, NFPA70 and NFPA90, can be included in the technical file your evaluation committee reviews. Request a quote with your tender reference.
