Product Description

The R2-474Z full-range loudspeaker system is engineered to provide quality, long-throw full-range sound projection in a variety of outdoor and indoor applications, with a wide, smooth frequency response and high efficiency for high-fidelity music and intelligible speech. It is an all horn-loaded triaxial design using precision waveguides hand-laminated by Community from fiberglass. The outer enclosure forms a double-wall construction with the internal bass horn, providing a completely weather-sealed chamber for the LF drivers, and the mid/high-frequency horn assembly mounts in the mouth of the bass horn. A high-quality passive crossover with DYNA-TECH dynamic driver protection is included, along with a weather-resistant mounting yoke. The result is a loudspeaker that is strong, non-resonant, weather-resistant and straightforward to install. The model carries EN 54-24 certification for use in voice alarm and emergency sound systems.
