If you are installing the LBT8 speaker in a commercial space, office, rental property, hospitality environment, or hotel guest bedroom, you may want to prevent excessive volume levels that could disturb neighbours, damage speakers, or create unwanted noise complaints.
The LBT8 includes both a physical hardware volume cap switch and dynamic in-app volume limiting control for maximum installation flexibility.
Before permanently mounting the speaker into the ceiling, locate the switches positioned on the rear side of the active speaker enclosure.
Find the small physical slider labelled:
50% Volume Cap
By default, the speaker is configured to allow 100% maximum output volume.
Slide the switch to the 50% position if you want to permanently restrict the speaker’s maximum amplifier output.
This is ideal for:
Secure the speaker into the ceiling using the dog-leg mounting screws.
Once enabled, the internal hardware limiter prevents the amplifier from exceeding 50% output power — even if the connected phone, tablet, or streaming device is turned up to maximum volume.
Forgot to change the physical switch before installation? No problem.
The LBT8 also supports dynamic software-based volume limiting directly through the app.
Using the app, installers or property managers can remotely adjust the maximum volume limit anywhere between:
This allows you to fine-tune the maximum permitted listening level without removing the speaker from the ceiling.
Adjust volume limits after installation without accessing the rear hardware switch.
Instead of only selecting 50% or 100%, the app allows precise control across the full 0–100% range.
Perfect for hotels, serviced apartments, restaurants, bars, offices, and rental properties where volume control policies may change over time.
Helps protect the speaker system while reducing the risk of excessive noise levels.

The LBT8 provides two convenient ways to control maximum volume output:
This gives installers and property owners complete flexibility to balance audio performance, speaker protection, and noise management both before and after installation.
