The R.15COAX is a two-way, full-range loudspeaker system designed to provide high quality voice and music reproduction in applications requiring extreme weather resistance. It is designed to withstand long-term exposure to tough, environmental conditions and to provide performance normally associated only with indoor loudspeakers. The R.15COAX has a 1.25-inch (32mm) exit HF compression driver and an 6.5-inch (165mm) carbon ring cone LF driver. The HF assembly is coaxially mounted with the LF driver allowing wide 100° coverage with low distortion. The flange-less cone design provides a cone area nearly equivalent to a typical 8-inch driver cone. The Music Voice switch provides an out-of-the-box selectable response allowing for additional application flexibility. The design uses Community's proprietary Tru-Phase™ phase plug to provide wide dispersion, low distortion and increased intelligibility. The enclosure is sealed to provide maximum vocal clarity and increased intelligibility. The sealed enclosure also provides supreme weather protection for all of the interior components.
NOTE: All wattage figures are calculated using the rated impedance.
