The Community R.5 Loudspeaker is a compact full-range all-weather 12-inch speaker 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 12-inch R.5 comes in three coverage patterns - 60° x 60°, 90° x 40° and 90° x 90°. It is engineered to deliver excellent vocal projection and wideband directivity control. The large LF horn creates substantial pattern control, helping to reduce unwanted room reflections and improve vocal clarity in difficult acoustic environments. The R.5 provides well-controlled midrange directivity and clear, articulate vocals. The high sensitivity, wide frequency response, and excellent projection capabilities over moderate distances make this loudspeaker ideal for many general purpose voice and music applications.
