Community R2-694Z Dual 12-Inch Weather-Resistant Speaker

The R2-694Z full-range loudspeaker system is engineered to provide quality, long throw full-range sound projection in a variety of outdoor and indoor applications. Its wide, smooth frequency response and high efficiency ensures high-fidelity music reproduction along with superb projection of clear, intelligible speech at very low distortion.

The R2-694Z is an all horn loaded triaxial design using precision waveguides manufactured by Community of hand-laminated fiberglass. The outer enclosure forms a double wall construction with the internal bass horn, providing a completely weather-sealed chamber for the LF drivers. The mid/high frequency horn assembly is mounted in the mouth of the bass horn. A high quality passive crossover with dynamic driver protection is included. The result is a loudspeaker system that is extremely strong, non-resonant, weather-resistant, and easy to install.

• Notes
  • 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.
