Product Description

The R1-64Z two-way full-range loudspeaker system provides quality full-range sound projection across outdoor and indoor applications, with a wide, smooth frequency response and high efficiency for both music reproduction and clear speech at low distortion. The standard version is weather-ready with a three-layer WeatherStop grille and a light-grey hand-laminated fiberglass enclosure; a black BNG version without grille is offered for indoor use. The LF section uses a weather-treated, Ferrofluid-cooled 12-inch driver and the HF section a 1-inch exit titanium-diaphragm compression driver, joined by a high-power passive crossover at 1.2 kHz with PowerSense DDP driver protection. A weather-resistant mounting yoke is included.

  • High-power passive crossover — A high-power passive crossover at 1.2 kHz integrates the drivers for low-distortion output.
