Featuring a 9.28\" square profile, Brilliant White satin finish, and Extreme Post-Capture (XPC) magnetic retention, this adapter and grille assembly provides a clean, bezel-free appearance for architectural audio installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for residential and professional architectural audio projects, the XPC-6SQ-NT allows installers to use a square grille with the compatible round VXQ68R speaker. Its trimless construction eliminates the visible perimeter commonly associated with traditional speaker grilles, creating a refined appearance that integrates with contemporary ceilings. The Brilliant White satin finish features RAL-standardized color characteristics to coordinate with interior surfaces. For custom installations, the grille can also be painted according to Sonance's published finishing instructions. This makes the accessory particularly useful for high-end residential theaters, living spaces, hospitality environments, and architectural installations where visual consistency is important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe integrated XPC magnetic retention system establishes a secure connection between the speaker and grille. This attachment method is engineered to resist substantial shear forces, including those associated with strong winds and pressure-washing conditions. The square adapter accommodates the compatible round speaker configuration while maintaining a consistent exterior grille profile. Identified as manufacturer SKU 60490, the XPC-6SQ-NT is supplied as an individual installation accessory rather than a complete loudspeaker. Its compatibility and dimensions are documented in the manufacturer's Visual Experience with Quadratech accessory specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6-Inch Square Speaker Grille Adapter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Converts the grille appearance of a compatible round VXQ68R architectural loudspeaker to a square configuration for professional ceiling installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrimless Architectural Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eliminates the conventional visible grille bezel to create a clean, modern appearance that integrates with surrounding ceiling surfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtreme Post-Capture Magnetic Retention:\u003c\/strong\u003e Incorporates Sonance's XPC attachment technology to help maintain a secure connection between the speaker and grille.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrilliant White Satin Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features a consistent white finish with RAL-standardized color characteristics for integration into contemporary architectural environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePaintable Grille Surface:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports custom finishing using the manufacturer's recommended preparation and painting procedures for matching surrounding ceilings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e9.28-Inch Square Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides a specified external grille width and height of 9.28\" for planning speaker placement and architectural alignment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVXQ68R Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed specifically for the James by Sonance VXQ68R Visual Experience with Quadratech in-ceiling speaker.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTrimless Square Grille for Architectural Ceiling Speakers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSeamless Square Speaker Appearance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe XPC-6SQ-NT provides a square grille option for installations using the compatible round VXQ68R speaker.
