R-SERIES
THE UNDISPUTED CHOICE OF AUDIO PROFESSIONALS WORLDWIDE
Community forged a new paradigm for outdoor loudspeaker performance over 15 years ago with the introduction of the R-Series. By offering full bandwidth, high output voice and music projection systems for any size outdoor facility, R-Series freed systems designers and venue owners from the limitations established previously by voice-only systems.
RAISING THE BAR
Since its beginning, R-Series has dened the
performance standards of outdoor systems and
satised the desire for "indoor quality sound" in outdoor installations. While R-Series raised the bar to make any system without high output, full bandwidth performance simply unacceptable, Community has continued to challenge the current standard by developing new outdoor technologies, and expanding the R-Series family over the years. Each generation of R-Series has added new solutions and improved upon past performance to exceed the ever higher expectations of audiences, venue operators, and systems designers.
NEXT GENERATION
The R-Series family now includes next-generation models which improve upon its legendary vocal intelligibility and music performance standards. In addition to providing new form factors, output levels, and even greater musical performance, Community has engineered better solutions to improve the already legendary weather-resistance, durability and sound quality of its enclosures and components. This new generation of R-Series loudspeakers complements the existing lineup by adding models that exhibit atter passive frequency response, improved low frequency extension and higher output from the same footprint. Additional dispersion patterns, new input and cabling choices, built-in voicing options, and more attractive architectural enclosures are offered. Also available are
premium performance, no-compromise versions of the
most popular models, adding entirely new dimensions to the types of applications that can be served using R-Series loudspeakers.
PATTERN CONTROL
While R- S e r i e s pro d u c t s pro v ide e xceptio n a l durabi l i t y
and protection outdoors, they are often the best choice
for indoor applications as well. Most R-Series models utilize all horn-loaded designs, providing very high efciency and output for all of the drivers, including the woofe r(s). Ho rn-lo adin g p rov ides excel lent pa t tern control in the lower frequencies, unlike traditional front-loaded woofer design loudspeakers. The pattern control provided by horn-loading makes R-Series the
perfect choice for many indoor environments with
difcult acoustic conditions, like long reverberation times or room geometries that cause a build-up of excess LF sound energy. In addition, many of the new next-generation R-Series models have been voiced specically for premium music reproduction as its primary design goal, making them ideally suited for indoor music system applications.
APPLICATION DIVERSITY
As expectations of indoor and outdoor loudspeaker systems change, R-Series is continually evolving; building and improving upon its strengths, to provide the broadest variety of solutions available for nearly any application. The R-Series family now includes 31 models with multiple horn patterns, color choices and congure-to-order options. Ranging from shorter projection loudspeakers with wide coverage angles, to narrow dispersion, very long projection systems, the uses and applications of R-Series loudspeakers, singularly and in combination, is nearly unlimited, making the task of designing an acoustically effective sound system as easy as possible.

TRUE POINT SOURCE PERFORMANCE

Whether a coaxial direct radiator model with excellent low frequency extension or an all horn-loaded model with superior low frequency pattern control, all R-Series models share one common characteristic. Every R-Series loudspeaker features True Point Source performance, delivering a single, unied apparent source. The True Point Source arrangement provides realism, naturalness and superior localization of the sound. The coaxial and triaxial designs also eliminate any off-axis side -lobes that are typically crea te d by non- point source arrangemen ts.

LOW FREQUENCY PAT TERN CONTROL

Community understands that horns not only improve driver efciency, but they also provide better low frequency pattern control in smaller enclosures than typical direct radiator designs. LF pattern control greatly increases intelligibility in indoor applications with difcult acoustics and helps maintain consistent voicing over distance in longer projection outdoor systems. R-Series includes larger models with control to 200 Hz and compact models with control to 600 Hz.
DYNA-TECH™ DRIV ER PROTECT ION CIRCUITRY
Using only the power of the amplier, DYNA-TECH™ guards against transducer overdrive by instantaneously and dynamically reducing power to the system in a multi-stage approach that progressively dissipates the amplier’s output until it triggers a temporary shutdown. Full outp ut is im mediately resto red by reducing drive levels to be within specied limits.

SIGNAL-ALIGNED TRANSDUCERS

Traditional loudspeakers feature a front-loaded LF with the MF/HF on deep horns. The distance between the various drivers causes signicant signal arrival time delay differences at the listener’s ears and additional problems at passive crossover points. Nearly all R-Series loudspeakers place the MF/HF as close as possible to the LF drivers, providing noticeably improved time coherence and crossover linearity.

ADVANCED WEATHER-RESISTANCE

WE ATHER-STOP™ GRILLES
Community pioneered the design and use of Weather-Stop™ Grille in the rst R2 loudspeakers in 1998. Since then, we have continually rened the design using the latest materials and technologies available, to enhance performance and reliability. We have
3-layer Weather-Stop™ Grille
again become the rst to introduce a number of innovative improvements to our original design, including dual-layer powder-coat (DLPC) technology, UV-resistant synthetic cloth mesh and most recently, NeverWet™.
ENVIRO TECH™ COATINGS
All internal circuitry is protected from the elements with our proprietary Envirotech™ coating. Envirotech™ seals sensitive electronic components against the effects of moisture and corrosive or acidic airborne contaminants.

INNOVATIVE ENCLOSURE DESIGNS

Each new generation of R-Series loudspeakers brings evolutionary improvements in enclosure materials and techniques to provide the ultimate in outdoor weather-resistance, long-term durability, and audio performance. The largest R-Series loudspeakers use sealed, resonance-free, hand-laminated berglass enclosures. R.25 and R.5 models feature a lighter weight one-piece, internally reinforced, rigid linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) plastic enclosures with outstanding resistance to temperatures and ultraviolet exposure. R.15 and R.35 models feature UV-treated, epoxy-joined, paintable high-impact ABS enclosures with extensive internal reinforcement for the best possible weather-resistance, sound reproduction, and application exibility. All R-Series loudspeakers include a 15 year enclosure warranty.
NEVERWET™*
NeverWet™ is a superhydrophobic nano­technology coating that repels water at angles up to 170°. Community is the rst loudspeaker manufacturer in t he world using this technology. We apply NeverWet™ to all grilles and woofers in the R.15 and R.35 loudspeakers for superior protection from water ingress and driver damage.

DUAL-LAYER POWDER-COAT

The steel grilles and yokes of all R-Series loudspeakers are treated with Community’s proprietary dual-layer powder-coating process.
Outer layer:
UV-resistant polyester powder-coat
Inner layer:
Chemical and abrasion resistant zinc-rich, epoxy powder-coat
Steel grilles and mounting yokes
An inner layer of a zinc-rich epoxy powder-coat and an outer layer of a UV-resistant polyester powder-coat provide two layers of protection against abrasion and corrosion. The combination of epoxy and polyester powder-coats provides optimal protection for all circumstances and installations. Independent tests performed by the U.S. military and NASA demonstrated that a zinc-rich epoxy inner layer and a UV-protected outer color layer produced the best and longest lasting method of protecting steel structures from corrosion, pitting or other damage, and in many applications was superior to untreated 304SS for protection against performance and aesthetic degradation.
