TOA Speakers

TOA speakers on this page are built for public address and paging. The range includes weatherproof horn speakers for announcements indoors and out, an IP horn powered over PoE, a flush-mount ceiling speaker for background music, a slim column speaker for halls, and the SP-131 brackets that fix horn speakers to a vertical pole. Most work on 100 V line systems, and the CS-154BS horn is the version certified to EN54-24 for voice alarm.

Choosing TOA Speakers

Start with the system the speaker joins, a 100 V line amplifier or a network, then choose a body for the space: a horn to project, a ceiling speaker for even background sound or a column for a hall.

Horn speakers for paging

The SC-615M is a 15 W horn optimised for clear speech intelligibility in large or noisy areas, with a shock-resistant aluminium oval horn, IP65 rating and a panel-mounted impedance selector for 70/100 V lines. The SC-630M has a 30 W rated input and a sensitivity of about 113 dB at 1 W, 1 m. The CS-154 is a 15 W weatherproof horn whose constant-directivity horn gives about 90° of horizontal coverage, and the CS-154BS is the voice alarm variant, certified to EN54-24.

IP horn speaker

The IP-A1SC15 is a network horn powered by PoE+ (IEEE802.3at Class 4) or PoE (IEEE802.3af Class 3). It has a 15 W amplifier output, 112 dB sensitivity at 1 W, 1 m and a 124 dB maximum SPL, and supports TCP/IP, UDP, HTTP and SIP for announcements and alerts.

Ceiling and column speakers

The PC-1868W-EB is a low-profile, flush-mount ceiling speaker for background music and paging, with a 12 cm full-range driver, a 6 W rated input with multiple transformer taps on 100 V lines and spring-catch mounting into a ceiling cut-out of about 150 mm. The TZ-50-EB slim metal column speaker takes 50 W, with 100 V taps of 50, 25 and 12.5 W or a 20 Ω option, and is rated IP55; its narrow vertical dispersion improves speech intelligibility in rooms with floor-to-ceiling reflections.

Pole mounting

The SP-131 is a pair of SUS304 stainless steel brackets for fixing horn or wide-range horn speakers to a vertical pole, supplied with M10 × 25 and M8 × 20 bolt sets. Pole bands to secure them are sold separately.

Frequently asked questions

What are TOA PA speakers used for?

TOA PA speakers carry announcements, paging and background music in places such as factories, schools, shops, stations and car parks. Horn speakers project speech over noisy or open areas, while ceiling and column speakers spread sound evenly indoors. They usually connect to a 100V line amplifier or, for IP models, to a network. The range here includes paging horns, ceiling speakers and a cabinet speaker.

Can TOA speakers be used outdoors?

Yes, weatherproof TOA horn and column speakers are made for outdoor paging and announcements. Look for an IP rating such as IP65 or IP66 when the speaker will face rain and dust. Pole brackets can fix horn speakers to a mast or post. The range here includes weatherproof horns and a slim weatherproof column speaker.

What is a TOA ceiling speaker?

A TOA ceiling speaker fits flush into a ceiling cut-out and spreads background music and announcements evenly across a room. Standard models connect to a 100V line amplifier, with transformer taps to set the level, while IP models can be powered over PoE from a network switch. The range here includes a flush-mount ceiling speaker and an IP ceiling speaker.

What is a TOA column speaker?

A column speaker is a tall, slim cabinet that usually holds a vertical line of drivers, focusing sound towards listeners and away from the ceiling and floor. That narrow vertical spread helps speech stay clear in halls, churches and other echoey rooms. TOA column speakers can run on a 100V line system. The range here includes a slim weatherproof metal column speaker.

What is a TOA speaker?

A TOA speaker is a public address loudspeaker from TOA, a Japanese maker of commercial sound and paging equipment. TOA speakers are designed for clear speech and background music in public and commercial buildings, and many work on a 100V line or a network. The range here includes horn and ceiling speakers, a column speaker and a pair of pole brackets.
