FEATURES & BENEFITS
GeoRealistic™ Styling
Traditionally, rock speakers have looked like ornaments and not like rocks. Each
RS6 style has unique textures and colors that are fashioned after natural rocks.
Shaped grilles match the features on the front of the rock, making them blend into
the cabinet. All of this extra attention to detail leads to a GeoRealistic™ style that
enables the
RS6 to blend in with other landscaping and disappear. All that will be
noticed is the great sound not the loudspeaker.
Weather Proof Construction
The cabinet is made from fiberglass, it utilizes double seals on the tweeter, woofer
and enclosure cover, the woofer drains water away from it, the grilles are painted
aluminum and the drivers are made from weather resistant materials. The
RS6 has
passed the most stringent environmental tests devised. Surviving over 5 years worth
of temperature cycling and still having seals that pass a 24-hour submersion test. It
has passed the test requirements for Salt Fog, Operating Temperature, Storage
Temperature, UV Exposure and Humidity per military standard 883. Whether you
are considered about salt-air, rain, freezing rain, snow, extreme temperatures, high
humidity, direct sunlight or combinations of these conditions, the
RS6 has proven
itself to withstand the harshest conditions Mother Nature can throw at it.
6.5" Injection Molded TCC Woofer
The unusually stiff and light injection molded TCC (talc, carbon, and ceramic) filled
polypropylene cone, the butyl rubber surround, and the substantial magnet and
motor structure are optimized for large excursions of the woofer. In this way, the
6-1/2" woofer can create superior bass output. In the end, the woofer design
provides deep rich bass and outstanding weather resistance capabilities.
1" Teteron Tweeter
In the past, rock speakers have used a co-axial tweeter design that has disappointed
listeners with a fatiguing and harsh treble sound caused by tweeter ringing. The
RS6’s 1" Teteron tweeter utilizes a tri-laminate design consisting of an inner textile
layer which forms the dome, a high damping layer to kill unwanted resonances and
an outside layer of urethane to add stiffness and prevent breakup modes. The result
is a transparent clear, sweet, natural sounding tweeter, which still maintains its
extended frequency response.
Tweeter Placement Improves Coverage and Dispersion
The Tweeter is angled twenty degrees up from the woofer. This means that it is
“aimed” at the listener and not at the ground. This improves the high frequency
coverage of the loudspeaker and ensures that all the benefits of the 1" Teteron
Tweeter are heard and not lost in the surroundings.
