Ci500AW Description

The Ci Series Ci 500AW is an indoor/outdoor all-weather loudspeaker with an integral, pivoting mounting bracket.

Utilising a 25mm (1”) soft dome tweeter partnered by a long-throw 130mm (5.25”) polypropylene bass/mid driver working in conjunction with an Auxiliary Bass Radiator for increased low frequency output from this closed box design.

The white, moulded ABS enclosure and stainless steel grille are paintable, and along with the drivers, terminals and mounting bracket are weather-resistant, making positioning of this loudspeaker, even in the harshest environments like patios or
even ocean-going yachts, extremely versatile.

The 2-way, 3 driver Ci 500AW combines 70W power handling and 87dB sensitivity, with a frequency response (±3dB) of 60Hz - 20kHz and a maximum output of 105dB.

Features and Benefits

25mm soft dome tweeter. Carefully selected for its smooth response and power handling.
130mm polypropylene bass/mid driver. Good bass extension and seamless midrange integration with tweeter.
ABR (Auxiliary Bass Radiator). Extended low frequency output from a closed-box design.
Integral mounting bracket. Offers both vertical and horizontal mounting options with good cable access to speaker terminals. Paintable.
ABS enclosure. The tough, moulded enclosure is fully weather resistant and paintable.
