SolidDrive MSK-1 Actuator for Drywall Surface

SolidDrive MSK-1 Actuator for Drywall Surface

The MSK-1 by SolidDrive is an economical hidden planar-source sound transducer designed for sound masking on drywall, glass and wood. Featuring a rugged aluminum enclosure with neodymium magnets, the MSK-1 uses technology similar to our patented SD1 transducers to transfer acoustic energy to the substrate. The result is extremely wide and even audio coverage and acoustical uniformity in the listening space.

  • Hidden planar-source audio technology evenly distributes sound masking signals throughout the listening space.
  • Broad and even coverage of up to 15 feet per unit in a drywall installation means a few units cover a large area.
  • Proprietary behind-surface mounting technologies ensure maximum visual appeal.
  • 86 Max SPL (drywall) and 120° dispersion pattern across the upper registers of the frequency spectrum.
  • Drywall optional accessories: self-leveling, constant tension pre-construction bracket to ensure proper alignment & wall contact.
  • Optional accessories include passive EQ module for drywall, glass and wood; 20 Watt metal junction box for 25, 70.7 & 100 Volt applications (AC-JB20- XFMR) and Heat Sink Fins.
  • SolidDrives operate in a virtually friction-free environment and are engineered for infinite life. SolidDrives come with an industry-leading 7-year warranty.

SolidDrive MSK-1 Actuator for Drywall Surface

MSK-1 by SolidDrive technology allows for high quality sound through drywall surfaces in either in-wall or in-ceiling installations. Applications include any sound masking installation in ceilings or walls that requires a hidden speaker solution. With planar-source technology, the location of the SolidDrive on the surface has no impact on the quality or uniformity of the delivered sound field and each unit provides coverage over a large area. For improved bass response, SolidDrive IW200 (dual 8 inch) or IW210 (dual 10 inch) subwoofers can be included. An optional 20 Watt transformer is supplied in a junction box and is available for 25, 70.7 or 100 Volt applications.

The surface material plays a key role in the system’s sound performance. To ensure an optimal listening experience, the MSK-1 system can be equalized with the optional SolidDrive Passive Equalization Module (Not UL approved). The PEM increases the system’s sound performance with a passive equalizer network specifically engineered for sheetrock. One module is used with each SolidDrive.
