The Community R.5-MAX 12-Inch Weather-Resistant Speaker deliver outstanding musical performance. Housed in the same size enclosures as Community’s flagship R.5 models, the two R.5-MAX models feature powerful 1.4-inch exit HF drivers and 600W neodymium woofers, delivering well behaved coverage patterns, exceptional intelligibility and flat frequency response. While providing the outstanding dynamic range and projection expected from R SERIES, the R.5-MAX offers listeners a superior musical experience with higher output than the R.5HP.

- Notes
- PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS All measurements are taken indoor using a timewindowed and processed signal to eliminate room effects, approximating an anechoic environment, a distance of 6.0 m. All acoustic specifications are rounded to the nearest whole number. An external DSP with settings provided by Community Professional Loudspeakers is required to achieve the specified performance; further performance gains can be realized using Community’s dSPEC226 loudspeaker processor with FIR power response optimization.
- 2. OPERATING RANGE The frequency range in which the on-axis processed response remains within 10dB of the average SPL.
- 3. CONTINUOUS POWER HANDLING Maximum continuous input voltage (and the equivalent power rating, in watts, at the stated nominal impedance) that the system can withstand, without damage, for a period of 2 hours using an EIA-426-B defined spectrum; with recommended signal processing and protection filters.
- 4. NOMINAL SENSITIVITY Averaged SPL over the operating range with an input voltage that would produce 1 Watt at the nominal impedance and the averaged SPL over the operating range with a fixed input voltage of 2.83V, respectively; swept sine wave axial measurements with no external processing applied in whole space, except where indicated.
- 5. NOMINAL MAXIMUM SPL Calculated based on nominal / peak power handling, respectively, and nominal sensitivity; exclusive of power compression.
- 6. EQUALIZED SENSITIVITY The respective SPL levels produced when an EIA-426-B signal is applied to the equalized loudspeaker system at a level which produces a total power of 1 Watt, in sum, to the loudspeaker subsections and also at a level which produces a total voltage, in sum, of 2.83V to the loudspeaker subsections, respectively; each referenced to a distance of 1 meter.
- 7. EQUALIZED MAXIMUM SPL The SPL produced when an EIA-426-B signal is applied to the equalized loudspeaker system, at a level which drives at least one subsection to its rated continuous input voltage limit, referenced to a distance of 1 meter. The peak SPL represents the 2:1 (6dB) crest factor of the EIA-426-B test signal.
