ALL-ENVIRONMENT IN-GROUND,
OUTDOOR LOUDSPEAKERS
The NEAR® IG-Series Loudspeakers (2 Models: IG8s2 & IG6s2) are fully-sealed
in-ground, outdoor speakers which provide exceptionally natural sound and can withstand nearly all types of environment and weather conditions.
two industry leading technologies from NEAR: Metal Diaphragm
which ensures speaker cone stability in all-environment conditions; and Magnetic Liquid
Suspension (MLS), a Ferrofluid seal around the magnet gap and voice coil which
provides protection from moisture and corrosion, as well as near-perfect voice coil
alignment.
These speakers combine
Technology (MDT),
Placement and Sound Quality
Dispersion of the IG speakers is a full 360 degrees! This means that the orientation
of the speakers, whether mounted in-ground or on-ground, is not critical. However,
by design, the frequency response is smoother throughout the midrange when the
enclosures are mounted in the ground, buried up to the NEAR badges on the loudspeaker enclosure. This mounting method also ensures a high level of security once
the ground around the enclosure is packed firmly. In addition, as the ground packs
more firmly around the speaker enclosure, the bass and midrange clarity improves.
This is due to a reduction in the resonance of the molded enclosure which, by virtue
of its round shape with extensive ribbing, is already quite inert. The addition of the solid
earth around the enclosure, in essence, makes the walls more solid, less resonant,
and less of a factor in any coloration of the sound.
The IG-Series is designed in a unique manner so that water will shed evenly off the
top of the enclosure. There are several drainage paths from the tweeter and woofer
mounts, as well as the channel where the grille is mounted. Even if the speaker is
tilted in any direction, water will still drain away efficiently and completely.
