PSB CS630 6.5" 2-Way Stereo/Surround In-Ceiling Speaker at Vinyl Sound Toronto Canada

The CS630 is a 2-way stereo and surround in-ceiling flush mount speaker from PSB Speakers (Lenbrook Industries, Ontario, Canada), available at Vinyl Sound in Toronto, Canada. A uniquely versatile model in the PSB CustomSound CS600 architectural series, the CS630 houses two complete audio channels in a single ceiling cutout through its proprietary 6.5" dual voice coil carbon-filled polypropylene woofer and a pair of 3/4" aluminium dome tweeters with waveguides. With a verified frequency response of 50Hz to 20,000Hz (±3dB), the CS630 delivers genuine two-channel stereo from one ceiling opening, making it the ideal solution for bathrooms, hallways, kitchens, and secondary rooms where separate left and right speakers are impractical. Designed and voiced at Canada's National Research Council (NRC) anechoic chamber, it can also be deployed as a bipole, dipole, or 7.1 surround rear channel speaker in a home theatre system.

Dual Voice Coil Architecture: Two Channels, One Opening

The CS630's defining technology is its dual voice coil woofer, a design that provides two electrically independent audio channels within a single 6.5" (165mm) driver. Each voice coil handles one channel of a stereo pair, eliminating the need for a second ceiling cutout in spaces where the room width, joist spacing, or aesthetic constraints make a traditional two-speaker installation impractical. The woofer uses the same carbon-filled polypropylene cone with rubber surround found in the CS610, mounted on a rigid basket with a high-temperature voice coil for reliable power handling. Above the crossover point, two 3/4" (19mm) aluminium dome tweeters, each with its own precision waveguide, deliver the high-frequency portion of each channel. The tweeter array is concentrically mounted and rotatable after installation, allowing the left and right high-frequency axes to be oriented for the best stereo coverage across the listening area. A 2100Hz LR4 crossover network manages the transition between woofer and tweeters in each channel with Linkwitz-Riley phase coherence.

Bipole, Dipole, and Surround Configuration Flexibility

Because the CS630 presents two discrete audio channels at its gold-plated spring-loaded binding posts, its wiring configuration determines its acoustic behavior. Wired in phase (bipole), both tweeters radiate coherently and reinforce each other, increasing output and coverage uniformity across the room. Wired out of phase (dipole), the two channels partially cancel on-axis and radiate more energy to the sides, creating the diffuse, enveloping surround effect recommended by THX and Dolby for side surround channels in a 5.1 or 7.1 home theatre. The CS630 can also serve as a dedicated surround rear speaker in a 7.1 configuration, handling two discrete rear channels from a single ceiling location. Independent dual-position level switches for both the tweeter array and woofer allow 0dB or +3dB adjustment after installation for room-to-room tonal optimization. The nominal impedance of 10 ohms (minimum 4 ohms per channel) is fully compatible with standard home theatre receivers and stereo amplifiers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the PSB CS630?

The PSB CS630 is a 2-way stereo and surround in-ceiling flush mount speaker featuring a 6.5" dual voice coil carbon-filled polypropylene woofer, two 3/4" aluminium dome tweeters with waveguides, and a frequency response of 50Hz to 20,000Hz. It delivers two independent audio channels from a single ceiling cutout and supports stereo, bipole, dipole, and 7.1 surround rear wiring configurations. It is sold individually as a single unit.

How does the PSB CS630 compare to the Polk Audio VS90RT or Klipsch CDT-5650-C II?

The PSB CS630 occupies a distinct category as a single-enclosure stereo speaker, making it a more precise competitor to products like the Polk Audio VS90RT, which also uses a dual voice coil design for two-channel stereo in one opening. The Klipsch CDT-5650-C II is a standard single-channel in-ceiling speaker and does not offer the CS630's stereo-from-one-cutout capability. Where the CS630 differentiates itself is in its NRC-validated acoustic design, rotatable dual tweeter array with waveguides, and the flexibility to wire as bipole or dipole for surround use, none of which the CDT-5650-C II provides. For Toronto homeowners needing stereo coverage in a bathroom, hallway, or kitchen without a second ceiling cutout, the CS630 has no direct equivalent in the PSB lineup.

Can the PSB CS630 be used as a Dolby Atmos or surround speaker in a home theatre?

Yes, the CS630 is well suited for surround channel use in a home theatre system. Wired out of phase as a dipole, it produces the diffuse surround presentation recommended by THX and Dolby for side surround channels in a 5.1 system. It can also handle two discrete rear channels in a 7.1 configuration from a single ceiling location, reducing the number of ceiling penetrations required in rooms where joist spacing limits speaker placement options.

What is a dual voice coil woofer and how does it work in the CS630?

A dual voice coil woofer contains two separate coil windings on a single driver cone, each connected to an independent audio channel. In the CS630, the left channel signal drives one voice coil and the right channel signal drives the other, with both coils sharing the same cone and moving together. The low-frequency output from both channels is therefore blended acoustically by the shared cone, while the high frequencies remain separated and handled by the two individual aluminium dome tweeters above the 2100Hz crossover point.

What is the difference between bipole and dipole wiring for the CS630?

Wired in phase (bipole), both of the CS630's channels radiate sound in the same acoustic polarity, reinforcing each other and producing higher overall output with broad, even coverage. Wired out of phase (dipole), the two channels partially cancel at the primary listening position and push energy to the sides, creating a diffuse, enveloping surround field. Dipole wiring is the standard approach for side surround speakers in Dolby and THX home theatre systems, while bipole wiring suits stereo music listening in rooms like kitchens or bathrooms.

What amplifier or receiver is recommended for the PSB CS630?

The CS630's nominal impedance of 10 ohms (minimum 8 ohms) makes it an easy, safe load for virtually any home theatre receiver or stereo integrated amplifier. Its recommended power range of 10 to 100 watts per channel means it works equally well with compact amplifiers used in multi-room audio systems from brands such as NAD Electronics or Bluesound as with full-size home theatre receivers from Denon, Yamaha, or Anthem.

Where can I buy the PSB CS630 in Toronto or Canada?

The PSB CS630 is available at Vinyl Sound, an authorized PSB dealer in Toronto, Canada. Vinyl Sound carries the full PSB CustomSound CS600 architectural speaker range and provides expert guidance on stereo system design, home theatre surround configurations, multi-room audio planning, and professional installation services for residential projects throughout the Greater Toronto Area and across Canada.

Is the PSB CS630 sold as a pair or individually?

The CS630 is sold as an individual unit (each). Because each CS630 delivers two-channel stereo from a single ceiling cutout, one unit is sufficient to provide stereo coverage in a compact space such as a bathroom or hallway. For wider rooms requiring broader stereo coverage, or for bipole/dipole surround applications, two units may be used. Both round and square magnetic frameless grilles are included with each speaker.

Not very durable
Size: Small - 2 Count (Pack of 1)
I purchased some of these balls a while back and had forgotten how quickly my yorkie puppy was able to destroy them.. I recently ordered some more bc I saw them on sale. I now have another yorkie pup that also loves to play ball. They actually play ball with each other. Within 24 hrs, the balls are fraying and they are getting choked on the fuzzy s off the balls. I'm not going to bother to return 3 2pks bc they were so cheap. Now I know why.

This ball seems to be a counterfeit.
Size: Large - 2 Count ( Pack of 1), Size: Large - 2 Count ( Pack of 1)
This ball seems to be a counterfeit and if it is not, it was made not to be played with by animal or human. In a review I just read, Iduna had posted this: Iduna 1.0 out of 5 stars Only for the most docile of play Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2024 Size: Large - Pack of 2Verified Purchase I thought it was great that these came in all sizes and bought the large for an urban dog park hoping it would not go through the slats of the fence and bought these as sort of a test before I bought the launcher. While the sizing was great unfortunately each one lasted a little more than half an hour. The rubber sphere part is constructed of two halves and I don't know if there's any sort of sealant between those two halves or if it's just held together by the thin tennis ball type cover but some bouncing off of the turf covered concrete and dog play upon retrieval caused the two rubber halves to separate and a few more tosses led it to quit bouncing and sort of squished together when the dogs grabbed it. That caused the thin tennis ball type material to fray and all was lost. This post was more than true without any exaggeration. Our dog fetched it in the house and tore it up within 5 mins. The original Chuckit launcher and ball was our first purchase thinking that these would be great balls to replace the Launcher ball which actually lasted our dog about 3 months of constant play and grinding on it (He loved that thing). This one came apart very easily as you can see, but the smell of the broken rubber was extremely solvent smelling (like toluene) of which I have good experience with chemicals like it from the industry in which I worked. Industrial solvents are definitely bad for our pets and that is the smell that comes out of this broken ball even at a distance. It filled our kitchen with the stench. I find this rather suspect when the description says: "this toy is designed with an extra-thick natural rubber core". In any case, the ball fell apart quickly and it is not like the launcher ball at all. I coach tennis and a real tennis ball would be better for our dog than this thing. Broken tennis balls don't smell like that at all and they last much longer and cost the same amount for 3 or 4 vs 2.

Defective seam

My dogs love these, defective or not. I have purchased the two ball set this is the 3rd and last time. Each set has had one ball with a defective seam on interior rubber ball which means it splits open on the first squeeze from the dogs.
