Ecler eMOTUS Loudspeakers: Flexible solutions for commercial audio installations

Commercial audio projects demand loudspeakers that adapt to different spaces — small indoor venues, expansive outdoor areas, and everything in between. The Ecler eMOTUS family covers the full spectrum with compact enclosures, clean sound, and practical accessories. Whether you need weatherproof reliability outdoors or plug-and-play simplicity indoors, the range is designed to deliver.

Why eMOTUS stands out

The eMOTUS loudspeakers are designed for versatility. Outdoor cabinets are IP65-rated with UV protection and aluminium grilles, while the indoor powered kits focus on simplicity and space-saving integration. Across the range, included wall brackets and optional mounting accessories reduce install time, while black and white finishes fit most commercial environments.

Outdoor performance: eMOTUS3OD, 5OD, 5O16, 8OD

All outdoor models share the same strengths: weather resistance, UV-protected finishes, aluminium grilles, and included wall brackets. They’re built to last in exposed environments, from hospitality terraces to sports complexes.

• eMOTUS3OD is the most compact, perfect for discreet background music where space is limited.
• eMOTUS5OD adds more output with a 5-inch driver and selectable 70/100 V taps for zoning flexibility.
• eMOTUS5O16 looks almost identical to the 5OD but runs at 16 ohms — a smart choice where multiple cabinets need to run off a single amplifier channel without dipping impedance too low.
• eMOTUS8OD scales everything up with an 8-inch driver, delivering fuller low end and higher SPL for larger outdoor or indoor areas where headroom is key.

Together, these models form a toolkit: pick size and impedance strategy to match coverage needs, confident that durability and installation workflow stay consistent.

Indoor simplicity: eMOTUS5P and 5PB

For projects that don’t need an external amplifier, the powered eMOTUS kits offer a ready-made solution. Both packages pair one active cabinet with a passive companion, giving you stereo sound from a self-contained system.

• eMOTUS5P handles the essentials, with line inputs and onboard controls for small retail, training, or hospitality spaces.
• eMOTUS5PB builds on that with Bluetooth connectivity and an IR remote, plus a 0–10 V DC port for wall-mounted volume control — a convenient touch for staff who want simple day-to-day operation.

These models shine in applications where keeping the setup minimal, cost-effective, and easy to use is just as important as audio quality.

Accessories that add options

The supporting hardware extends installation flexibility: CEILY ceiling mounts for discreet overhead placement, RAILAPTOR adaptors for integration into 3-circuit lighting tracks, and GROUNDY brackets for low-profile floor setups. These accessories eliminate the need for custom fabrication and speed up installation on site.

Design notes for installations

• Coverage and voicing: The 3-inch and 5-inch cabinets provide consistent background music and clear paging. Step up to the 8-inch for areas requiring more low-mid authority.
• Impedance strategy: Use the 16-ohm eMOTUS5O16 to connect multiple cabinets on one amplifier channel or select 70/100 V taps on the outdoor models for long cable runs and multi-zone flexibility.
• Outdoor reliability: Only the OD models (3OD, 5OD, 5O16, 8OD) are IP65-rated. They include UV protection and aluminium grilles to withstand harsh conditions.
• Indoor simplicity: The powered eMOTUS5P and 5PB deliver an all-in-one solution where amplification, connectivity, and control are built into the speakers themselves.

Where eMOTUS fits best

The range covers a broad set of commercial environments: retail stores, restaurants, hotels, education facilities, wellness centres, landscaped outdoor areas, and public spaces. With models for both indoor and outdoor applications, eMOTUS loudspeakers deliver reliable audio where clarity, durability, and ease of installation are top priorities.
