Every Square Metre.
Covered. Clearly.
Speaker selection, placement, and installation engineered for the acoustic characteristics of your specific space — no dead zones, no distortion, no guesswork.
What is a professional speaker system?
Speaker system design is not about putting speakers on walls. It is about selecting the right speaker type for each environment, placing it at the correct height and angle to cover the intended area, and wiring it at the right impedance and tap wattage for the amplifier driving it. Layerix conducts an acoustic assessment of every space before specifying a single speaker.
Who is it for?
- ✓ Open‑plan offices & reception areas
- ✓ Warehouse & factory floors (high ambient noise environments)
- ✓ Outdoor areas & perimeter
- ✓ Corridors & stairwells
- ✓ Auditoriums & event halls
- ✓ Cleanrooms & controlled environments
The Problems Professional Speaker Systems Solve
Speakers everywhere — coverage nowhere
Too many underpowered speakers placed without a coverage plan creates a system that sounds busy but leaves dead zones in every corner. Speaker placement must be calculated — not estimated.
Wrong speaker for the environment
A ceiling speaker designed for a quiet office cannot overcome the ambient noise of a factory floor. A horn speaker designed for outdoor use sounds harsh indoors. Speaker selection is environment‑specific.
Impedance mismatch = amplifier failure
Connecting the wrong speaker load to an amplifier channel causes distortion, overheating, and premature amplifier failure. Every speaker tap wattage must be calculated against the amplifier's zone capacity.
Scope of Work
Speaker Type Guide
Ceiling Speaker (Flush Mount)
For: Offices, corridors, receptions, hotel rooms, retail. Coverage: 90–120° cone downward. Note: Most common type — clean finish, moderate SPL output.
Surface Mount Speaker
For: Concrete ceiling or exposed structure where flush mounting is not possible. Coverage: Similar to flush mount. Note: Visible box — less preferred aesthetically but practical in warehouses and basements.
Horn Speaker
For: Factory floors, outdoor areas, warehouses, high‑ambient‑noise environments. Coverage: Narrow, directional — high SPL over long distance. Note: Weatherproof rated options available. Not suitable for indoor speech clarity.
Column / Line Array Speaker
For: Long corridors, atria, places of worship, large open halls. Coverage: Vertical pattern control — projects sound horizontally, reduces ceiling reflections. Note: Significantly better speech intelligibility than point source in reverberant spaces.
Outdoor Weatherproof Speaker
For: Outdoor areas, car parks, sports grounds, building perimeters. Rating: IP54–IP66 depending on exposure. Note: UV‑resistant housing required for direct sunlight.
In‑Ceiling Subwoofer / Full Range
For: Music‑critical environments — hotel lobbies, restaurants, retail, event spaces. Coverage: Broadband response. Note: Requires active crossover or DSP for correct integration with satellite speakers.
How many speakers do I need?
Coverage calculation: Ceiling height determines coverage diameter per speaker.
Rule of thumb: coverage diameter ≈ 1.4× mounting height for 90° speaker.
For a 3m ceiling: ~4.2m coverage diameter per speaker.
Overlap 20–30% between speakers to eliminate dead zones.
(Layerix calculates this per room — not from a generic template.)
Our Speaker System Process
Acoustic Survey & Noise Measurement
Measure ambient noise (dB SPL), room dimensions, and surface materials.
Speaker Type & Placement Plan
Select speaker models, calculate coverage arcs, design layout.
Cable Sizing & Infrastructure Prep
Calculate cable gauge per run length, coordinate conduit and back boxes.
Installation & Termination
Mount speakers, pull and terminate cables, label all runs.
SPL Measurement & Commissioning
Measure sound pressure at multiple points, verify coverage, impedance test.

Client Success Story
Challenge: 20,000 sq ft warehouse with high ambient noise (forklifts, conveyors) — existing ceiling speakers were inaudible in aisles.
Solution: 24 horn speakers mounted 5m high, aimed down aisles, 100V line with 30W taps, SPL target 95dB in all areas.
Outcome: Measured SPL 96–98dB across warehouse, shift announcements heard clearly from any location, dead zones eliminated.
