The loudspeaker includes a circuit board mounted high-pass/low-pass crossover which produces outstanding sound quality. Model FA138 contains a reinforced polypropylene cone woofer, a custom butyl rubber surround, a 1-1/2" vented Kapton voice coil, a 21oz. magnet and a 1/2" Mylar-dome ferrofluid cooled tweeter for clean and powerful weather-resistant performance.

The integral 16W/70.7V transformer features a 40Hz to 15kHz frequency response (±1dB) with 4, 8 and 16W primary taps.

For optimum acoustic and application versatility the Strategy series has been engineered as a system offering both the FA97-8 series high performance enclosures (.22ft3) with acoustic batting as well as the economy FA95-6 series (.17ft3) backbox enclosures. The enclosure front-loads the loudspeaker and installs quickly and easily into the ceiling using only a screwdriver to adjust the rotating clamps. Loudspeakers may also be ceiling or wall mounted into areas with minimum depth by using plaster ring Model FAPR-8 instead of an enclosure.

Baffle selection includes a choice of two attractive grilles which are equipped with three serrated studs for hardware-free, push-on installation into Strategy Series enclosures.

For limited depth installations when no enclosure is required mounting ring model FAPR-8 may be utilized. New construction ring model FA-TR8 is also available to serve as a pattern cut-out and location marker for drywall installers in new construction applications.
