Many businesses which have a suspended ceiling may also contain speakers. These speakers allow music to be played throughout the building. Such systems can also be used to page or locate someone within the store. Most of these speakers are lightweight, which allows the ceiling tile to carry the weight of the new speaker. This makes installation very simple. For heavy speakers, additional supports must be added to carry the additional speaker weight.
