Product Description
The built-in multi-tap transformer gives you options on the install. Run it on a 70V line at 200W, 100W, 50W, or 25W, on a 100V line at 200W, 100W, or 50W, or bypass the transformer and run it direct at 8 Ohms. A 120° x 120° pattern spreads sound evenly across wide areas, so fewer cabinets can cover the same space. A high-slope 1.8 kHz crossover keeps coverage consistent through the midrange, and SonicGuard overload protection looks after the HF section when the system gets pushed.
The cabinet is made to take years of sun, rain, and salt air. It carries an IP56 rating, exceeds Mil-Spec 810 for humidity, salt spray, temperature, and UV, and passes ASTM G85 acid-air/salt-spray testing. The heavily braced ABS and glass enclosure sits behind a three-layer, zinc-rich powder-coated steel grille, and a gland-nut terminal cover seals around round-jacketed cable. The included gray U-bracket attaches at two M10 points, with an M6 secondary safety point on the back panel.
Features
Clear Speech and Full Music
An 8" Kevlar-reinforced woofer and 1" compression HF unit share one axis, delivering intelligible announcements and extended response from 80 Hz to 20 kHz for background music.
Built for the Elements
An IP56 rating plus testing beyond Mil-Spec 810 and ASTM G85 for salt spray, humidity, and UV lets it hold up on pool decks, marinas, and patios.
Flexible Wiring Options
The built-in transformer taps at 25W to 200W on 70V lines or 50W to 200W on 100V lines, or runs direct at 8 Ohms with standard amplifiers.
Wide, Even Coverage
Consistent 120° x 120° pattern control and a high-slope 1.8 kHz crossover spread sound evenly across a large patio or concourse.
Protected and Ready to Mount
SonicGuard overload protection guards the HF section, while the included gray U-bracket attaches at two M10 points with an M6 secondary safety point on the back.
