DESCRIPTION
The R2-6 4MAX is a three-way, full-range
loudspeaker system designed to provide
"No Compromises" premium music reproduction
at very high output levels, and also improves the
legendary R2 voice projection and intelligibilit y
capabilities. It is designed with the same material s
and cons truction as the standard R2 for extreme
weather resistance, and can withstand long-term
exposure to tough environmental conditions.
The R2-M AX is constructed with premium
components in a biamp format to maximally
optimize its performance. It uses a 1.4" exit HF
compression driver that features a copper shorting
ring and hybrid diaphragm to reduce resonances
while maintaining excellent HF e xtension. Operated
with a high crossover frequenc y, the large HF
driver maintains very high headroom, delivering
eor tless performance. The dual, high power 12"
LF drivers feature an aluminum demodulation ring
for ver y clean, low distortion performance. The
midrange features a higher performance version of
the legendary low compression ratio M200 2" exit
compression driver, achieving 3dB greater output
with extremely low distortion. The passive MF/HF
horn signal aligns the drivers for the best possible
music and speech per formance. The result is an
excellent loudspeaker system that is capable of
exceeding expectations in any application.
FEATURES
• Modern stadium loudspeaker, designed to meet the needs of today's sporting venues for superb
musicality, excellent speech intelligibility and very high output
• Signal aligned passive MF/HF horn coaxially mounted in front of electronically signal aligned LF drivers
• Large format 1.4" exit HF, high output M200HP, and premium high output LF drivers
• High sensitivity and very high output (133 dB max), with flat extended frequency response

NOTES
1. PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS All
measurements are taken indoor using a timewindowed and processed signal to eliminate
room eects, approximating an anechoic
environment, a distance of 6.0 m. All acoustic
specifications are rounded to the nearest whole
number. An external DSP with settings provided
by Community Professional Loudspeakers is
required to achieve the specified performance;
further performance gains can be realized using
Community’s dSPEC226 loudspeaker processor
with FIR power response optimization.
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.
8. AXIAL PROCESSED RESPONSE The on-axis
variation in acoustic output level with frequency
of the complete loudspeaker system with
recommended signal processing applied.
1/6 octave Gaussian smoothing applied.
9. AXIAL SENSITIVITY The on-axis variation in
acoustic output level with frequency for a 1
Watt swept sine wave, referenced to 1 meter
with no signal processing. 1/6 octave Gaussian
smoothing applied.

10. HORIZONTAL / VERTICAL OFF-AXIS RESPONSES
The loudspeaker’s magnitude response at
various angles o-axis, with recommended
signal processing applied in the operating mode
which utilizes the largest number of individually
amplified pass bands. 1/6 octave Gaussian
smoothing applied.
11. DIRECTIVITY INDEX The ratio of the on-axis SPL
squared to the mean squared SPL at the same
distance for all points within the measurement
sphere for each given frequency; expressed in dB.
1/6 octave Gaussian smoothing applied.
12. BEAMWIDTH The angle between the -6dB
points in the polar response of the loudspeaker
when driven in the operating mode which utilizes
the largest number of individually amplified pass
bands. 1/6 octave Gaussian smoothing applied.
Data presented on this spec sheet represents a selection of
the basic performance specifications for the model. These
specifications are intended to allow the user to perform a
fair, straightforward evaluation and comparison with other
loudspeaker spec sheets. For a detailed analysis of this
loudspeaker’s performance please download the GLL file and/
