Description
The Archipel 17 ICPS is an in-ceiling speaker from Cabasse, designed to reproduce stereophonic sound from one single point of diffusion. Thanks to the pairing of two tweeters, it covers both stereo channels without the need to install two separate speakers, which simplifies integration where available space is limited or where visual discretion is paramount.
Its architecture is based on a coaxial driver, a design that combines woofer and tweeter on the same axis and reduces the speaker's footprint while maintaining good sonic coherence. The 17 cm woofer delivers powerful, controlled bass, despite the restricted loading volume typical of this in-ceiling format.
The finish has also been designed to adapt to different interiors: the Archipel 17 ICPS is supplied with two pairs of grilles, one round, one square, both originally white but which can be repainted to suit the desired décor. Their magnetic fixing makes fitting and removal easy without risk of damaging the mount.
This model is intended for those seeking a discreet sound integration solution for a living room, lounge or any space where the presence of visible speakers is not desired, while retaining complete stereo listening and good bass performance.

What to check before buying used
On this type of in-ceiling speaker, the rear cabinet and the sealing of the loading volume determine the quality of the bass reproduction: check for any crack or detachment of the metal chassis. The surrounds of the 17 cm woofer deserve close inspection, as sagging or hardening of the surround affects low-frequency performance. The magnetic mounting system for the grilles can lose its strength over time: make sure both pairs remain securely held and show no play or traces of poorly removed old paint.
