The AMS 5ICT is a compact, versatile surface-mount loudspeaker designed to deliver high-quality audio in commercial installations where in-wall or in-ceiling mounting is not feasible. Its defining feature is the incorporation of ICT (Interleaved Coil Technology) within its 5-inch full-range driver. This patented design utilizes two separate voice coils wound on a single former, enabling the loudspeaker to be connected to two independent audio sources or amplifier zones simultaneously. This dual-coil functionality provides exceptional system design flexibility from a single, discreet loudspeaker location, allowing for innovative solutions in multi-zone or multi-source applications like retail stores, restaurants, and conference facilities.

The loudspeaker is housed in a durable, injection-molded polypropylene enclosure with an integrated, paintable steel grille, offering a low-profile appearance that blends seamlessly into various interior decors. Its surface-mount design allows for quick and easy installation onto virtually any wall or ceiling surface using the integrated keyhole slots and provided screws, making it an ideal choice for retrofitting audio into existing buildings with concrete, brick, or glass walls. The enclosure is acoustically optimized to provide a balanced frequency response, ensuring clear reproduction of both music and speech without the boxy coloration often associated with small cabinets.

Integration is straightforward thanks to the built-in multi-tap transformer, which is configured with two independent primaries to match the dual-coil driver. Each coil can be connected to separate 70V, 100V, or 8-ohm amplifier outputs, providing installers with a powerful tool for creating overlapping zones or ensuring redundancy. For instance, one coil can be dedicated to background music while the other is reserved for priority paging or emergency evacuation announcements. This combination of robust construction, installation versatility, and unique dual-input capability makes the AMS 5ICT a highly practical and intelligent choice for sound contractors seeking to simplify system design while maximizing functionality and audio performance in space-constrained or architecturally challenging environments.
