It combines a weatherproof-treated 8\" woofer and a 1\" dome tweeter, handles 70 W continuous (AES) at 16 Ω, and reaches 108 dB maximum SPL with 60 Hz – 17 kHz response. A multi-tap 70V\/100V transformer and a waterproof AWX-5 connector make it a practical outdoor speaker for distributed background music and paging.

AUDAC rates it IP55, achieved through a waterproof AWX-5 connector on the back and a drain hole behind the aluminum front grill that lets condensation flow out. Each speaker ships with a 70 cm (27.6 in) AWC07 5-pin connection cable; longer AWX cables are available from AUDAC. The MK2 mounting bracket is aluminum with a powder coating that passes a 96-hour salt-spray test, and it supports both vertical and horizontal mounting. On 70V lines the transformer offers 30 W and 15 W taps (60 W and 30 W on 100V), and the 16 Ω input supports low-impedance amplifiers. Coverage is 110° horizontal by 110° vertical for broad, even sound across open outdoor areas.
