Soundtube RS600I 6.5" Hanging Speaker with a BroadBeam Tweeter
SoundTube RS600I 6.5" Hanging Speaker with BroadBeam Tweeter
The SoundTube RS600I is a premium 6.5" open-ceiling pendant speaker from the RSi Original Pendant series, delivering exceptional full-range audio performance for commercial distributed audio systems. At the heart of the RS600I is SoundTube's proprietary BroadBeam® waveguide tweeter system — a 1" convex aluminum tweeter with FerroFluid cooling mounted to a cast-aluminum baffle and heat sink that provides consistent, even high-frequency coverage across a wide listening area. Paired with a 6.5" polypropylene woofer in a ZeroReflection™ ported enclosure, the RS600I achieves a frequency response reaching down to 58 Hz with 100° off-axis performance from 2 to 10 kHz, independently verified.
The RS600I incorporates a six-position selectable tap switch for 25V, 70.7V, and 100V distributed audio systems, plus transformer bypass positions for direct 8-ohm wiring. Maximum continuous power handling is 90W RMS (180W program), making this pendant one of the most powerful in the 6.5" class. The patented ZeroReflection™ enclosure minimizes internal standing waves for accurate sound reproduction with exceptional cabinet rigidity, contributing to long-term reliability in demanding commercial environments.
Installation uses a SpeedClamp™ self-locking cable grip for fast, secure, and code-compliant ceiling mounting. Included accessories cover a Euroblock connector, hanging hardware, safety cable, and terminal weather boot. The RS600I carries CE, MIL Spec, RoHS, UL1480A, and UL2239 certifications, reflecting its suitability for demanding commercial and institutional audio installations. Available in black and white.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes BroadBeam® technology different from a standard tweeter?
A: BroadBeam® uses a proprietary waveguide to disperse high frequencies evenly across a 100° arc, eliminating the "hot spot" directly beneath the speaker and ensuring consistent sound quality for listeners at any angle.
Q: How does the RS600I compare to the RS400I?
A: The RS600I uses a larger 6.5" woofer and handles significantly more power (90W vs. 60W RMS), making it the better choice for larger spaces or applications requiring higher SPL.
Q: Is the RS600I suitable for a 100V distributed audio system?
A: Yes. The six-position tap switch includes 100V settings with a maximum tap of 33W, compatible with any standard 100V commercial amplifier.
Q: What hanging cable lengths are available?
A: Optional hanging cables in 10-foot, 20-foot, and 50-foot lengths are available as accessories (AC-RS-HH-10, AC-RS-HH-20, AC-RS-HH-50).
Q: Is the RS600I MIL Spec certified?
A: Yes. The RS600I carries MIL Spec certification in addition to CE, RoHS, UL1480A, and UL2239, making it appropriate for military base and government facility installations.
