Legendary Definitive Performance — Outdoors!
Now you can enjoy the incomparable sound of Definitive
Technology anywhere around your home with the ground-
breaking new AW5500 and AW6500 All-Weather loudspeakers.
These technology-packed wonders feature high excursion active
drivers pressure-coupled to racetrack-shaped Low-Bass Radiators
to give you more than double the bass output while maintaining
a weather-tight seal for ultimate placement flexibility, reliability,
and performance.
With their fully sealed design, aluminum grilles, and rugged
PolyStone enclosures, the AWs can be fully exposed to the elements
and still reliably deliver their indoor speaker sound quality for years
of outdoor listening enjoyment. Their integrated galvanized steel
brackets and unique shape allow a full 360 degrees of rotation
allowing the listener to orient the active drivers towar
d the listening
area. Pointing the active driver baffle towards the listener while the
Low-Bass Radiator side faces the wall or gr
ound gives you the ideal
balance of clear mids, extended highs, and thunder
ous bass even
in the tough acoustic conditions of the great outdoors.
