AUDAC VIRO5/W – 5" Coaxial Loudspeaker, IP55, 8 Ω, White

What is the AUDAC VIRO5/W 5" coaxial loudspeaker?

The AUDAC VIRO5/W is a compact 2-way coaxial performance loudspeaker in white for indoor and outdoor commercial installations. It pairs a 1" silk dome tweeter with a 5 1/4" driver in a 4 mm powder-coated aluminum enclosure rated IP55. At 8 Ω with 60 W continuous (AES) power handling, it suits restaurants, bars, hotel terraces, retail and corporate spaces that need high-fidelity background and foreground music.

How does the AUDAC VIRO5/W 5" coaxial loudspeaker work?

The VIRO5 uses a soft, silk-domed 1" tweeter mounted coaxially with a 5 1/4" treated paper woofer, giving a 160° conical coverage pattern and a frequency range of 50 Hz to 20 kHz (-10 dB). Sensitivity is 89 dB at 1W/1m and maximum SPL is 110 dB. The enclosure is 4 mm textured powder-coated aluminum, chosen for stiffness as well as appearance. An aluminum grille with hydrophobic cloth, sealing rubbers and bottom drainage holes give it an IP55 rating, and AUDAC states it has passed a 720-hour salt spray test. The included bracket and connection plates (2 x M16 cable gland, or cable grommet) cover most wall and ceiling installs. For distributed 70/100V systems, add the TRV106 transformer module; for quick connect and disconnect, use the CVS102 speakON connection plate. A 40 x 70 mm mounting pattern accepts the MBK530 pole mount or MBK523/G ground pin, and an M6 safety bushing takes the STG601 drop safety wire. The 16 Ω VIRO5D/W and the VIRO5/B black version are also available.
