SOUND SECURITY

Atlas Sound now shipping two new sound masking products


PHOENIX. AZ, July 28, 2008 -Two new sound masking products are now available from Atlas Sound. Designed expressly for security masking applications with requirements exceeding the capabilities of traditional components, the M2000-SM Surface Mount Masking Transducer are now offered along with the M2000-LP Low Profile Masking Speaker.


The M2000-SM is built for window, door, wall, and duct applications where the need for sound masking security is paramount. The subtle design of the device‘s two-part transducer/transformer provides discrete placement and mounting options. Incorporating NXT™ Exciter Technology in a 1-inch, coil-mounted plate, the transducer offers the simplicity of “peel-and-stick” installation, while the transformer can be remote-mounted and adjusted with variable tap settings at �, �, 1, 2, and 4 watts.


A low-profile sound masking loudspeaker measuring 7 �” wide by 2 5/8” high and 7” deep, the M2000-LP weighs only 3 pounds and is designed for use in raised access flooring and small plenum ceilings. Delivering 90 dB at one watt / one meter through two 2” x 4” paper cone speakers, the loudspeaker comes with a built-in 70V transformer outfitted with variable tap settings ranging from � to 4 watts that can be adjusted via a front-mounted switch. Perfect for applications where construction constraints once made true sound masking security and speech privacy complicated, the M2000-LP, like the M2000-SM, is value-engineered to deliver professional performance at an affordable price.


Now shipping, the M2000-SM has a suggested retail price of $153. Slated for release early in the third quarter of this year, the M2000-LP will list for $184. As the latest complements to an existing catalog of other sound masking components, these products and all other Atlas offerings can be viewed online along with additional information at www.atlassound.com.
